Unable to build gradle that depend on other module

Question

Hey I have many modules in my project:

starting from low level android library

logic

through the base android application

base_app

productFlavors{
   featureON{}
   featureOFF{}
}

buildTypes{
  release{}
  debug{}
}

dependencies{
  implementation project(':logic')
}

to the end user android application

client app

buildTypes{
  release{}
  debug{}
}

dependencies{
  implementation project(':base_app')
}

ext.gradle_version = '3.4.0'

I'm getting

ERROR: Unable to resolve dependency for ':client@debug/compileClasspath': Could not resolve project :base_app.
Show Details
Affected Modules: client

ERROR: Unable to resolve dependency for ':client@debugAndroidTest/compileClasspath': Could not resolve project :base_app.

ERROR: Unable to resolve dependency for ':client@debugUnitTest/compileClasspath': Could not resolve project :base_app.

Show Details
Affected Modules: client

ERROR: Unable to resolve dependency for ':client@releaseUnitTest/compileClasspath': Could not resolve project :base_app.
Show Details
Affected Modules: client

However if I use it as following

implementation project(path: ':app', configuration: 'default')

gradle runs, but in that case changing build variant debug/release doesn't change variant in app, what I required because I want to put more productFlavors in 'client' , namely featureON{} featureOFF{}

android app will have following modules.

Android app module

Android Library(aar)

Android java library(jar)

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(include: ["*.jar"], dir: "libs")
    implementation fileTree(include: ["smack-*-${smackVersion}.jar"], dir: smackDir)
    implementation(name: "ion-${ionVersion}", ext: "aar")
}

We can not have more than one 'Android app module'.
