File Locations and Source Settings

This section provides detailed instructions to configure project settings for Source Location (local or network folders, repositories, databases) and File Type (Programs, Documents, BI Reports), including instructions on how to customize Find it EZ project settings.

Note: Some project configuration settings are used in combination with each-other. For example, in order to include any Programming Language files, Reports or Other Documents, you must select and configure the physical “Location” of those files. This could include a local or network folder, a version control system, or a report scheduling repository.

There are three ways to access the Project Settings dialog box:

From the Find it EZ menu, select Projects -> Settings to access the active project settings. See below:
Within the main program window, right-click on any location or source item within the expanded Source panel. The advanced settings for the active project source item will appear (see sample below).
From the Manage Projects dialog box, click to highlight a project from the list, then click on the Edit button to access the selected project's settings.

View or Hide Project Settings

At the bottom, left of the Project Settings dialog box, you can click to check the Do not show this window each time I select a source item check-box.

Apply Project Settings

When you are done making changes to one or more a source items, click on the Close button to apply the changes.

Note: Changes are also automatically applied and saved as you navigate between source items within the Project Settings dialog box.

See Also: Set User Options (in the Tips and Hints section, there is a Show project settings whenever I select a source item check-box). Click to check or un-check as desired.
