Plan by Sample Set
You can define samples and preselect the attributes that you want to associate with each sample before you start to plan templating and sequencing runs. You can then organize samples into Sample Sets that are available to select and reuse when you create a Planned Run. This approach, which is known as plan by Sample Set, can save time when you plan your instrument runs if:
-
Your samples include many attributes.
-
You want to use the same Sample Sets for many instrument runs.
-
Your laboratory assigns tasks such as planning and defining sample attributes to individuals who have specific areas of expertise.
-
Your samples include attributes for use with Ion Reporter™ Software.
For example, if you select the Sample Set group type Trio, only Trio analysis workflows are available to choose when you configure a Planned Run for use with Ion Reporter™ Software.
-
You want to set up multisample analyses in Ion Reporter™ Software.
