To manually deploy new components using the Product Directory:
On the left-hand menu, select the desired managed product or folder.
Mouseover Tasks. A drop-down menu appears.
Click Deploy <component> from the Select task list.
Click Deploy Now to start the manual deployment of new components.
Monitor the progress through Command Tracking. Click the Command Details link to view details for the Deploy Now task.
