Overview

A CUID scheme's weight and volume is used to correct a CUID scheme analyte's Raw value to produce its Final value.

Weights and volumes are entered into workbook by the user or captured from a balance.

This process is pertinent to laboratory operators who prepare samples for analysis.

Process

Opening a Data Entry Session for Weights and Volumes Entry

After Finding Jobs using a Workbook Search and Opening Jobs for a Workbook Session to present the schemes from those jobs, then select a single scheme for the weight/volume data entry session.

Select the pages of samples to load for the data entry session. These pages include any quality control (QC) samples that were created for the job/s when concentration records and rack structure were created for the job.

Open the data entry session in read-write mode to display the spreadsheet in default style with samples down the page and weights and volumes across the page.

Scope a workbook session for weights and volumes

When the workbook is opened in Weight/Volume mode, one tab is presented:

Results - Weight—A spreadsheet to enter sample weights and/or volumes.

Interacting with a Spreadsheet

The spreadsheet is presented and interacted with similarity to Entering Final Results in a Workbook.

System Assessment of Weights and Volumes

Where the LIMS is configured to apply a check on the weight against a range of values, when an out-of-range weight is entered or captured into the spreadsheet for the current cell, then a warning. If this occurs, either accept the value or enter an in-range value.
