Working Assemblies and Assembly Specific Publishing Settings Library (APL)

When a working assembly is created, it copies the APL of the submitted view and it updates the submitted view to use the new copy of the APL. The previous sequence view still uses the previous APL. When you create multiple working assemblies, the submitted view is updated to the last created working assembly.

Create A Working Assembly

After you add sequence assemblies to life cycle, you can create working assemblies that include updates and changes required by the regulatory agency.

To create a working assembly:

  1. Click the link for the application for which you want to create the working assembly.
  2. Click the Sequences tab, and then click .
  3. Enter the required information for the sequence and Save.
  4. Click the Assembly tab.
  5. Click Create Working Assembly.
  6. Provide the information for the working assembly and click Create.

    The working assembly is created and displayed on the Assembly tab.

  7. Above the assembly tree, choose one of the following:
Option Action
Submitted: Shows the most recent sequence submitted to the regulatory agency; its folders, leaf elements and documents are shown in gray.
Sequence: Shows you the folders, leaf elements and documents in this sequence only; these are also shown in gray.
Working: Shows the assembly in which you make changes and updates to the submission. It is the combination of the last submitted sequence (in gray) and the current sequence you have just added (in black).
Option Action
Publishing: Shows you the folders, leaf elements, documents and publishing elements in this sequence only. The non-editable elements are shown in gray, but publishing elements may still be modified.

Modify Leaf Elements in the Working Assembly

You can perform leaf operations, including add (New), replace, append, and delete from the working view. You cannot perform replace, append, or delete operations on a leaf that is part of an open Submission Plan.
