By adding target values and defining rules for parameters with the laboratory database, you can see at the same time as entering your values whether the values correspond to the respective target values. Depending on your needs, you have the option of specifying the target values together with the measured values in the report.
Select the limit table where you want to add a setpoint, or add another one via
+ Create Limit Table.
By pressing the button
Search parameter you can
select the parameter, for which you want to add setpoints.
Or you go to
Display all parameters and add the desired parameters by clicking on the
+ next to the parameter.
This automatically takes you to the view in which you can
create rules for parameters and thus set the
Set point.
Select the column of the parameter to which the setpoint refers. If, for example, a dropdown is stored for the selected column that contains the setpoint, you can make a selection from it.
Alternatively, enter a value. For example, the upper limit 5.
If there is a range within which the setpoint is located, you can define it by coupling an
AND function with the corresponding comparison operators. E.g. greater than 3 and less than 5.
If there is a range outside of which the setpoint is located, you can define it by coupling an
OR function with the corresponding comparison operators. E.g. less than 3 or greater than 5.
If you are combining text and number, the text must come first. E.G. "=negative" OR "<10"
Specify the
frequency with which this setpoint must be present in the tested sample. E.g. every 2nd sample.
Select the
colour in which a value is displayed when it does not correspond to the setpoint value. By marking the checkbox, you can
display this rule in the report.
After
saving the settings, you can store further setpoints for this parameter, by clicking on the
+ next to the parameter.
According to the rules created, the target values are now integrated into the laboratory database view in which you enter
values for samples. At first glance, you can now see whether the measured values are within the range of the target values you defined. Measured values that deviate from the setpoint are displayed, for example, in the
colour "red".
