The title tab appears in all the views proposed by the Open/edit sample module. When you write something in this tab, it will automatically be updated in the report, but also in the Title tab of the other views.

Four icons are displayed on the top right of the tab:

  • reload allows you to reload the data from the server. The modifications you did are locally stored until you click on Save data. At this point, the modifications are stored in the server. If you did not save your changes before reloading, you would lose them and come back to the latest version saved. When you click on the icon, a tab will appear to confirm your action and avoid any unwanted loss.
  • groups allows you to manage the access to the sample information. You can either select or unselect an existing group or add a new owner using an email address or a group name. The new owner would be able to edit the information about the sample.
  • safety gives you access to the security record information about the sample, such as the creation and last modification dates and the name of the owners.
  • print allows you to print the report in a format corresponding to the template selected in the Overview view. The report will contain a barcode that represents this specific sample.
