-The staff client is built as part of the "make install" process in a normal load. One can also build one by going to the Open-ILS/xul/staff_client directory and typing "make build". There are a number of options that can be specified, either during "make install" or "make build".

+===== STAFF_CLIENT_NAME =====
+If you wish to have a custom profile directory you can set the STAFF_CLIENT_NAME to something other than the default of STAFF_CLIENT_NAME=open_ils_staff_client.  This can be useful if you want to install multiple clients on one machine and not share preferences between the versions.
+From staff_client directory:
+<code bash>
+make STAFF_CLIENT_NAME='' build

+==== Custom Install Directory ====
+If you wish to customize the install directory for your windows client.  This can be useful if you
+want to run multiple staff clients on one machine without them interacting with each other. Edit the staff_client/windowssetup.nsi file and change the PRODUCT_TAG to a custom value.
+<code>
+;!define /file PRODUCT_VERSION "client/VERSION"
+!define PRODUCT_TAG "Test-2.8"
+!define PRODUCT_INSTALL_TAG "${PRODUCT_TAG}"
+!define UI_IMAGESET "beta"
+;!define UI_IMAGESET "release"
+!define PRODUCT_NAME "Evergreen Staff Client ${PRODUCT_TAG}"
+</code>
+Now the default install directory will be c:\%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Evergreen Staff Client Test-2.8.  Build the staff client after this change is made to activate it.
