   where:

   • CONFIG_PROJECTS_PATH is the full path to the CONFIG_PROJECTS folder. This path must contain slash marks (/).
   • VERSION_NUMBER is the name or number of the build created. It can be any number or text value.

     In Microsoft Windows, you must use a forward slash mark (/), for example, as follows:

   <SYNC>buildorder_od_sync.txt</SYNC>

   <ALL_OP>buildorder_op_all.txt</ALL_OP>

   <ORACLECRMSALES80X>buildorder_op_sales.txt</ORACLECRMSALES80X>

   <ORACLECRMAMP80X>buildorder_op_amp.txt</ORACLECRMAMP80X>
