Create a Supporting Sequence Assembly

Use this procedure to create a supporting sequence assembly. You can import an assembly, add volumes, files, and folders.

1. Select the new assembly and click Assembly. Two options are available for the new assembly:

   Option	Description
   Create Working Assembly	Use this option to create a lifecycle sequence assembly. A working assembly contains everything previously dispatched to the authority, minus anything replaced or withdrawn. It also includes anything incremental to that sequence that is planned but not yet submitted.
   Create Supporting Sequence Assembly	Use this option to create a supporting sequence assembly. This type of assembly may be created within an Application alongside an existing Sequence Lifecycle without having to be part of that Lifecycle. The supporting sequence assembly will have no relationship to the previous lifecycle, and will not contain any of the previously dispatched folders or files. You may use this type of assembly for any publications that are related to the Application, for example: paper submissions, or study reports.

2. In the Assembly tab, click Create Supporting Sequence Assembly.
3. Complete the necessary information and click Create.
   Note: It is recommended that you name the supporting sequence assembly appropriately to identify its relationship to the eCTD.
   The Create Assembly page appears.
4. The new supporting assembly is created, and you can now import an assembly, add volumes, files, and folders.
