Setup Screen

Overview

OBeer Setup contains many of the system wide settings that control how things work in OBeer

Summary

The OBeer Setup Screen is a system table that holds much of the system wide information and configurations about your installation of OBeer. It is not recommended that you make changes to this table without first inquiring with OBeer Support as to what you want to change.

What's New in OBeer 3.0
