Default Settings for Blank and Standard QC Samples

A blank or standard QC sample's Code is determined by the reserved sample syntax SAMPLE_CODE_SYNTAX that has its running number updated ONLY upon successful sample registration.

A blank or standard QC sample's Name, Description and Client Sample Name is set to the standard's Name, Description and Name, respectively.

A blank or standard QC sample's Primary Analytical Type is set to Blank or Standard, respectively.

A blank or standard QC sample's QC Type Code is set to the code of the selected QC Type (from the QC mask member or as selected during creation).

A blank or standard QC sample's Standard Code and Standard Lot Code are set to the codes of the assigned Standard and Standard Lot (determined from the QC mask member or as selected during creation).

A blank or standard QC sample's Workflow Status is set to Not Started, that is, the samples are activated automatically.

A blank or standard QC sample's Received Date, Registration Date and Last Activated Date are set to the current server date-time.

A blank or standard QC sample's Received By, Registered By and Activated By are set to the current user.

The Registration Sequence and Rack Number are made identical for all linked job schemes, that is, they are registered for all linked job schemes (although a duplicate, replicate or spike QC sample is only registered in a linked job scheme as long as the original sample is registered also for that job scheme), and are placed in the same relative order in the rack.

A blank or standard QC sample scheme's Instrument Code is set to the first active instrument associated with the master (laboratory-scope or enabled-scope scheme) scheme's Instrument Group Code.
