Some partners, ISVs, and customers have access to preproduction builds of Finance and Operations by being part of the Preview Early Access Program (PEAP) or by using public previews of the service. This preview phase is intended as a mechanism for feedback on the latest features and for validation of customizations. These early releases, however, are not authorized to be used in production. See the Standard and First release service updates topic for more information about the Finance and Operations release process.

Starting in Platform update 24, each preproduction build is tagged in two different ways to make the preview status clear to users:

  1. Users see the word "Preview" as a suffix to the product name in the navigation bar.

  2. The title of the About box includes the word Preview.
