Hi

It depends upon what kind of post deployments you are talking about.

Provide more about which components/changes you are looking for?

Hi Mahesh,

Thanks for your early response.

providing format that we are getting post deployment steps.
EX: 
1>Setup --> Permission Sets --> navigate to one of the 'Permission Set Label' --> Object Settings --> click on Tasks --> click on Edit button --> navigate to one of the field --> enable the both (Read & Edit ) checkboxes --> then Save

2>setup->object->task->find pagelayout section ->find "given Task - Click Submitted" ->click on edit ->drag and drop cancel button->save.

Thanks,

We can do some of these using the ANT migration tool.

Will provide you the sample Package.xml in my next message.

Hi Siraj,

Below is the sample Package.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">	
	<!-- Page Layouts -->   
	<types>
        <members>Project__c-Project Layout</members>
		<members>Contact_Role__c-Contact Role Layout</members>  
		<name>Layout</name>
    </types>
	<!-- Permission Set -->
	<types>
		<members>Object_Permission_Campaign</members>	
		<name>PermissionSet</name>

Hi Mahesh,

Thanks for your sample package.xml with this we can retrieve metadata from the one org and deploy it to another org exact my requirement is to pass the data manually as per their requirement and guide.
providing some more sample post deployment steps for reference.

setup->develop->custom settings->DUMMY_CONFIGURATION_OBJECT->click MANAGE->click NEW->enter (ex:- Name:Dummy_USER_ADDRESS_TYPES ,text value:CUSTOMER'S ADDRESS)-> click save.
      
         above step repeats for different fileds,along with previously provided post deployment steps.

Please let me know any aproach to acheive automation, or is there any article for pd steps automation.
