Create a Planned Run without a Planned Run template

If you do not create a Planned Run from a preinstalled or custom Planned Run template, you can create a Planned Run without a Planned Run template and predefined settings.

Best practice is to create a Planned Run from preinstalled or custom Planned Run templates. Planned Run templates contain predefined settings for preparing multiple runs of the same type (for example, if you are performing the same type of sequencing analysis using the same instruments and reagents on multiple samples). For more information, see Create a custom Planned Run template and Create a Planned Run from a Planned Run template.

  1. In the Plan tab, in the Templates screen, click Plan New Run.

    The Create Plan wizard opens to the Ion Reporter step.
