How do I add my Altium managed schematic sheets

Design sheets

Managed Schematic Sheets in Altium are read-only schematic documents (.SchDoc) stored in a central repository. Instead of being directly included in the project directory, they exist as soft links to managed documents within the Altium environment. Here is how you can add your Altium managed schematic design sheets.

  • When working with an Altium project, design sheets are stored in the "Managed" folder rather than the main project directory.

  • These sheets can be referenced across multiple projects but cannot be directly edited.

  • They are primarily used when a team needs to review component orientation but lacks a local schematic file.

Here is how you can add your Altium managed schematic design sheets:

  1. Include the Managed folder when adding files to your import process.

  2. Manually add any missing .SchDoc files referenced in the project.

  3. Ensure that all linked schematic sheets are accessible to avoid missing connections.
