Add a field in managed-released package

Hi Experts,

I have created a managed-released package using partner community developer account. I haven't submitted it for security review yet. But I need to add one more field to the package. 

How can I do that? Can I log a case to Salesforce regarding this?

I don't want to create a new developer account & create a new package once again.

Thanks & Regards,

Nitesh Saxena

Dear Nitesh,

First, create the package extension in Salesforce. Then when you are creating the Force.com project in Eclipse, choose 'Contents of package' in the 'Choose initial project contents' screen and select the package you created earlier. What then gets downloaded into your Eclipse project is everything that has been added to your package extension. So, if you have added a field to a custom object from your managed package, you get a metadata file with just that new field in it.

Hi Sandeep,

Thanks for quick reply. I am not able to create a new version as one version is already uploaded and needed to be deprecated, but Deprecate button is greyed out.

Thanks & Regards,
