Need to run a batch file after the MSI gets installed

I have to write a custom action which has to run the batch script (running the licensing files) after the MSI installation. I am using the AdminStudio for packaging.
So can someone please tell me the process how to write a custom action to run a batch script using adminstudio

Use the custom action that runs an external EXE and call c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe as the executable, and use the full path to the batch file as the argument, preceded by /c . Sequence after InstallFinalize as an immediate action.
