Maintain sample portions

To search for sample portions:

    Note: All codes, enumerations and Job Name fields are case-sensitive for searching.

  5. Enter other relevant search criteria and click Search to display sample portions that match the criteria.

    Sample portions are ordered by Job Name, the sample's Registration Sequence, and Portion Code.

    If a sample has no associated portions, it is displayed as a portion-less sample in the grid.

    Note: Only production and internal jobs are searched. Laboratory batch, proposal, template, schedule and draft jobs are not searched.

  2. Select the check box in the first column of each sample portion to be included in the report, or leave all sample portions unselected to include all sample portions in the report.

    Note: Until a search is performed, the Export to Report option is not available, and if any search criteria are updated the Export to Report option is not available until a search is performed.
