Thanks #sonias and #helmuta

It seems to be a good solution to keep that account active until all running instances complete.

Thanks.

The way we solved this problem is that we created a generic account that we use to do all of our application deployments beyond development. That way the processes are owned by that generic user.

There probably isn't a direct/simple approach to get all running instances to run under a different user's context. What has been suggested for similar situation is to keep the user active in the sytem until all old instances are completed (that said, publishing under a system account does help with new instances atleast running as admin account). Here is a link to a thread on the same topic where Annelise and others have also provided very good explanation - forum.appian.com/.../b-14987

Thanks for the suggestion to work with a single System Account for importing Application packages to Production.

But I wonder how this will prevent throwing errors in process instance that was started & still running by the user account which is no longer required and has been deactivated by us.

Hi,
You can have a System Account (which is not tied to any user) in Production and use that user account for importing Application packages to Production. This user should never be deactivated.
