Can I reuse an existing Benchling equipment schema?


It is possible to reuse an existing schema in your Benchling tenant - to do this, you will need to ensure the following fields are mapped in the schema:

  • Name

  • Equipment type

  • Manufacturer

  • Model

  • Description

  • Contact person

  • Last maintenance date

  • Calendar

Name

Equipment type

Manufacturer

Model

Description

Contact person

Last maintenance date

Calendar

Then any other fields in your schema need to be set to Not required - this can be done by:

  1. Navigating to feature settings from your profile icon,

  2. Then selecting the entity schema option and selecting the schema you wish to reuse.

  3. From here, click on the edit icon next to each entity field and the ensuring the Required box is not ticked:
