The custom application record defines and identifies an application and all its
associated artifacts.  
It is similar to a system dictionary record for a table or column in that it stores the most current configuration of an application. The system automatically creates a custom application record during the application creation process. Application developers can use this record to perform the following tasks.

* Change the application name
* Change the application version
* View the scope the system uses to identify application files and configuration records
* Enable scoped administration
* Manage design and runtime access to the application
  * Select what JavaScript standards the application supports
  * Select how the system tracks runtime API operations
  * Permit or restrict access to tables from other applications

* Monitor or enforce subscriptions
* Select the default menu in which to display application modules
* Set the user role required to access the application
* Add or update a logo
* View all application files
* View resources from other applications on which the application depends
* View the run-time resource to which the application has been granted access
* View the design-time resources to which the application has been granted access
