Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for configuring software based on the selection of extensions and/or business sets and functions by a user. IA method for configuring software based on the user selection of extensions includes presenting extensions for selection by a user and determining whether the user selection of the extensions is valid. The method further includes performing updates to source code based on the user selection of the extensions and compiling the source code corresponding to the selected extensions to generate a user-specific system.
