How to register a chemical and get its SDS in YakProject
Every hazardous product on site needs a current safety data sheet before it is approved for use. Registering it once records what it is, why it is on the job and how much may be stored, and finds the SDS in the shared library or asks for it to be found.

Transcript
Register a chemical once in YakProject, and its safety data sheet is found or requested for you.
On Chemicals and SDS, search the shared library by name, manufacturer, SKU or CAS number, and pick the exact revision if it's there. Here, nothing matches.
Enter the product name, and choose the manufacturer, adding it if it's new. Leave Hazardous on for anything with a hazard label.
Say why it's on this job and the most you'll keep on site, then select Introduce and request approval. A safety approval request opens.
The product is listed as provisional. With no sheet in the library, YakProject asked ReferenceSearchManager to find one for your review.
