Dynamics Lifecycle Services (LCS) features cover overlapping parts of a Dynamics AX system’s life cycle. The chart shows where each LCS feature is typically used in a project: LCS features and descriptions appear on the left side, and five key project phases are shown across the top. For example, the Usage Profiler, which calculates infrastructure requirements, is used in the Analyze and Design phases of a project, when the initial configuration is analyzed to calculate infrastructure requirements.

		Project Phases
LCS Feature	Description	Analyze	Design	Develop	Deploy	Maintain
Business process modeler	An interactive, visual tool for creating business process flows to identify fit and gaps with AX 2012 R2.	Yes	Yes			Yes
