**This step is _optional_ and only applies to species standalone custom or advanced custom panel designs for [Xenium v1 panels](/support/software/xenium-panel-designer/latest/tutorials/pre-designed-xenium-v1)**. This step is **not** currently offered in the **Xenium Prime** panel design workflow - please submit requests in the Xenium Panel Designer and 10x support will work with you to finalize Xenium Prime advanced custom designs.

{"While no impact on assay performance is anticipated, 10x Genomics does not support or experimentally validate the use of custom probes, and thus cannot guarantee that custom probes will successfully detect their targets."}

This is the final, and optional, step of the [Request species standalone or advanced custom panels](/support/software/xenium-panel-designer/latest/tutorials/xenium-panel-design-workflow-guide#submit-request) workflow before submitting the request to a 10x bioinformatician.

To specify RNA-binding sequences for advanced custom probe sequences, create a CSV file formatted as specified in the [Species Standalone Custom and Advanced Custom Panel Design for Xenium In Situ Technical Note](/support/in-situ-gene-expression/documentation/steps/panel-design/species-standalone-custom-and-advanced-custom-panel-design-for-xenium-in-situ). This CSV file can be uploaded to the Xenium Panel Designer (see Provide Sequences step below) or you can work with your 10x bioinformatics representative to generate it.

What is the Xenium Panel Designer?

Use the Xenium Panel Designer app to request custom panel designs. First, choose your custom panel design option. Then read the panel design request workflow guide to follow either the standard or advanced workflow.

Start Panel Request

Tell us about your panel request and enter a design ID if you have one.

Add Sample Info

Add on to a pre-designed panel or design a standalone custom panel. Select the panel type and number of targets.

Select Panel Type

Reference datasets are used to predict highly expressed genes that can cause optical crowding. For optimal results, use a dataset that closely aligns with your sample.

Provide Reference Datasets

Submit a list of custom genes to request for your custom panel design. Genes should be ranked in priority order from most to least important. In the standard workflow, the panel designer app will clean up the custom genes list and then generate a design for you to review.

Add Custom Genes

For advanced target or species standalone custom design requests, submit additional sequence information. This is not necessary for standard workflow design requests.

Advanced Workflow Step

Identify potential issues with your current panel and view the optimized panel design that incorporates all our recommendations.

Review Recommendations

If satisfied with the design, finalize to complete request. Please note that after designs are finalized, no further changes can be made to your panel design.
