Hey Jim,
If I'm correct we need the professional edition of VIPM for packaging VI's. And this professional edition is not free. Any idea of making it free

Hi Sathish,
You can create packages with the free Community Edition. Give it a try 🙂
Thanks,

For our OP's use case, IMO it's overkill.

I'd be happy to hear your feedback about the things you don't feel VIPM addresses well.
