This chapter describes how to manage synthesis information in caNanoLab samples. Topics in this chapter include: Table of ContentsmaxLevel4minLevel2 

• If you have a read-only account, you can view, print, or export sample information. For details, refer to (link TBD). 
• If you have a curator account associated with an existing sample, you can also add, edit, or delete information in that sample.

This chapter includes the following sections. (TBD: I might split this page into multiple pages, one page for each section. Then I would need to edit each mention of section.)

   Instruments	Include Page Instrument Instrument  (TBD: On the Dev tier, nothing happens when I click Add next to Instruments.)

2. When you are finished, click Save Technique. (TBD: On the Dev tier, nothing happens when I click Save Technique.)

Adding Data Findings to Synthesis Purification 

...

1. On the Add or Edit page for synthesis purification of a sample, expand the Finding  panel, as described in (link TBD). 
2. Under Data and Conditions, add findings such as laboratory conditions, pH, or temperature. You can add data manually or you can import as many .csv files as needed.

...

1. (TBD: May I have a sample CSV file to import, to test these instructions?)Add data values to Data and Conditions.

   1. To import a file of data values

      1. Save the a spreadsheet of data values to a csv (comma-separated value) file.

      2. Click Import csv and select . Select the data file and follow the prompts to add the data file to the Findings Info.The it. The system adds columns and data are added to under Data and Conditions.

   2. To add the data values manually

      1. Specify the number of columns and rows for the matrix, and click Update.

      2. Add the data values to the rows.

2. Whether you imported values or added information values manually, you can preface each data value with one of the following: Maintain the default, equal to (=), or select greater than (>), less than (<), or infinity (approximate). (TBD: On the Dev tier, these drop-down lists are empty.)

3. To define a column, click an underlined column heading.
   The Column Definition panel displaysappears.
4. Select a Column Type,   Datum or Condition.

5. Select a Column Name or select other and add a new one. You can add up to three cell viability Column Names, including cell viability, cell viability B, and cell viability C. You can further identify the column with the Column Value Type.

   • For Column Type Datum, (Column Name options TBD).

   • For Column Type Condition, (Column Name options TBD). 

6. To further identify a column, select a Column Value Type. Once the column information is saved, the Column Type is shown in parentheses after the Column Name, such as cell viability (mean).

7. Select a Column Value Unit, or select other and add one.

8. If you want the same value to fill all rows in a column, add a Constant Value. For Column Value Type, boolean, enter a Constant Value of 1 for true and 0 for false.

9. Click Save. The system updates the columns. If needed, click Set Column Order to change the order of the column headings in the matrix.

10. Click Save in the Finding sectionpanel.

Adding Supporting Documents to a Sample

You can add supporting documents to a sample. You can add as many files as you wish.

To add each file

1. In the File section of the page, next to Files, click AddAdd or Edit page for synthesis (materials, functionalization, or purification) of a sample, expand the Files panel, as described in (links TBD).
2. Select Upload or Enter File URL.
   • For Upload, click Choose File. Browse to the file and select it. 
   • Otherwise, enter the file's URL where the document is located.
3. Complete the following fields.
   
   1. Select the File Type (required): Document, Graph, Image, Movie, PDF, or Spreadsheet.
   2. Enter the File Title (required).
   3. Specify Keywords to associate with the file.
   4. Enter a Description of the file or additional information.

4. Click Save File. The system adds the file to the sample.
