Custom App Maintenance

System Location: Settings > System > Custom App Maintenance

In order to access this tab under the System dropdown menu, the user must have security access granted for Custom Apps within the User Maintenance Security Settings.

The Custom App Maintenance area is used to control custom applications added to your JobBOSS2 software. Apps are imported and edited through this area, and security access can be granted or denied to users of the system through the editing feature. All apps are viewable in the navigation grid, but they are run out of the Custom Apps area of the software (see the Custom Apps section below for more information).
