General tab:
-
Report template—The URL of the report template file.
When generating job reports and a Report template is selected for a report from the Open File dialog, where the new Boolean UseReportTemplatePath REPORT setting is enabled (default is disabled where the setting is missing), then the filename displays with %TemplateDirectory% as the path, for example, %TemplateDirectory%REPORT.RPT, such that, at report time, %TemplateDirectory% is replaced by the value of the TemplateDirectory GLOBAL setting. Where the setting is disabled, then the filename displays with the full path, for example, C:\MYSITE\Templates\Report\Report.rpt.

Sample tab:
Where the SortSampleGrid REPORT setting is disabled (default is enabled where the setting is missing), then, by default, samples in the grid are sorted by CUID. Where the setting is enabled, then, by default, samples are sorted by REPSEQUENCE, however, it is quite common to only report a subset of samples, which means, frequently the REPSEQUENCE is not defined for some samples, and whilst this does not have any impact on the report views since the views are unaware of the REPSEQUENCE field, the display on the Samples tab can be negatively impacted.
-

-
First reported—The date-time at which the sample scheme analyte was first reported.
