Greetings.  We have a solution that is built using multiple data sources.  We use a SharePoint 2016 (on-prem) library for storing document attachments.  The majority of the solution is SQL and Oracle.  We registered the site collection via the K2 for SharePoint app from the web app's app catalog.  Doing that basically creates and configurs an instance of the 'SharePoint 2013' service broker.  We did not 'appify' any lists or libraries by going through the ribbon to generate objects.  We have a standard SmartObject in a different category that was configured to integrate with one of the service methods that was automatically generated in the SharePoint service instance.  This is basically like adding a new method to an existing SmartObject that calls a SQL service method, AD, or anything else for that matter.  

The problem is this:  We cannot package this SmartObject because it throws a 'ListSetting' not found error in P&D.  I understand that SharePoint-based artifacts should be packaged via the K2 button in a list/library ribbon - but the problem is that there is nothing there to package.  We just added a service method call to an existing SmartObject.  It isn't even in the same category as SharePoint artifacts.  

What are the deployment options for this type of scenario?  Thanks.
