How to use custom *.ISS with javafx-ant, maven and INNO? - ant

Question

I am attempting to create a custom installer for my application using maven, inno and javafx-ant. I have looked at this link, but I do not seem to get the results described Inno and Maven
I have my installer successfully being created, and my application successfully installing. However it always goes to user/AppData/Local/. I have changed that in my custom *.iss file as follows:
DefaultDirName={pf}\cashreceipts
UsePreviousAppDir=No
Uninstallable=yes
However this file is not being picked up during the build. I have added the needed application-name.iss file at src/main/deploy/package/windows/application-name.iss however it's not picking up.
I am not sure what else to try to get this file used in my build.
Thanks!
The following is the maven configuration for the build step.

I was able to confirm that ZENJAVA plug in is still being worked on and is supported at github and it can accomplish this. The information is here:
