Creating Instruments

Creating Instruments

Alert
Please Note: Before creating a new instrument in SID, we recommend performing a thorough search in SID to confirm that it is not already available.

Info
Instruments are submitted for approval from the SID menu. 


Notes
Step 1/3
Open the menu.






















Notes
Step 2/3
Confirm or select the desired Team before selecting Add an instrument.

*Instrument submissions under SID Community are reviewed daily by LayerJot.
*Instrument submissions under any other private team, e.g. Apple, can be immediately reviewed for approval by private team users in HUB.






Notes
Step 3/3
Fill out the relevant information and then Send for review

*The catalog photo and modified/custom instrument checkbox are optional.
*The instrument will not be available until it is approved by the LayerJot team or a user in HUB.




Notes
Optional
If a matching Vendor and SKU for an instrument already exists in SID, but you would like to create a unique modified/custom version of it, this can be accomplished as shown above in Step 3 or via the existing standard catalog instrument.





Idea
Custom/modified instruments by default are appended with *M for increased visibility.  However, any naming format can be used as desired by private Teams.  The blue icon will show in SID regardless of the naming convention, due to the checkbox selection when creating the instrument record.
