Validating app in the App Store - Beginner

I am trying to validate my application, i am going through the doc and it says

Before archiving your application, ensure that the binary is self contained. That is, if it relies on static libraries, ensure that those libraries are part of the application binary by setting the Skip Install build setting to Yes in the Release build configuration of the target that builds and archives the application.

After following the above step, and when i archive the app i am not seeing the archived file on the table below (in the Organizer). Why is this and how can i submit my app to Validation ? (not submit to app store, Only validation)

Note: When i set Build configuration to Ad Hoc it Archives correctly (and displays in Organizer), but when i set Build configuration to Release, the archive file doesn't get displayed in the organizer.

Setting Skip Install to YES can be problematic sometimes, I'd only use it if you're having a specific problem that it solves. The Xcode users guide isn't as up-to-date as it should be, particularly for recent releases where the archive process has changed significantly.

Try turning Skip Install back to the default NO, and be sure to use the Product > Archive command rather than Build for > Archive.
