The steps are to create a new piping component in PARAGON, create the new symbol template in DRAFT by giving it characteristics like the SKEY and base key, and creating connection points and geometry.

When exporting the new symbols from DRAFT, the symbols need to be selected and added to a new file created under the project folder.
