Adobe Live Cycle: A step to step Deployment

For deployment we needs Archive files, which will be provided by the developer. The archive file is then imported to the livecycle and the imported services will be created and listed in the services list in the LC admin panel (if not found, please refresh the window). Now, we need to add the users playing around with the process to the LiveCycle Users. Create a new category and map the process to it. Create end points. Deployment is over.
In general case the steps above will suffice the deployment, the database configuration and email configuration may vary application to application and can be incorporated with the help of the developer support.
