    If ExAM configuration tab is not displayed on the list of visible tabs on the far right of the tabs header there is a plus sign (+) which when clicked will display all available tabs and ExAM configuration can be found from there. Also next to the plus sign there is a drop-down button, which should have the ExAM configuration tab accessible from that area. That drop-down menu that displays additional tabs is customizable.Macintosh HD:private:var:folders:nd:wcmyz9g54xg7lr_6pp8zvqs80000gn:T:2017-08-17_12-51-56.png
