# Update a Subset in an Extension

**Note:** Simplex does not support the creation of SNOMED CT subsets. Subsets should be created in a dedicated tool, such as the Reference Set and Translation Tool.

**Step 1: Prepare Your Input File** Simplex accepts input files in two formats: Excel files or export files from the Reference Set and Translation Tool.

By following these steps, you can seamlessly integrate subsets into your SNOMED CT extension using Simplex. Should you have any questions or encounter any issues, please refer to our documentation or reach out to our support team for assistance.
