Worksheets

Worksheets group analyses into a unit of bench work. They are useful when work is organized by method, instrument, analyst, bench, batch, or QC event rather than by whole sample.

When to Use Worksheets

Use Worksheets	Open Samples Directly
Many samples share the same analysis	One-off samples
QC controls, blanks, or duplicates must be reviewed beside routine samples	Simple low-volume work
Instrument import/export is part of the process	Manual entry only
Analysts work by bench or method	One analyst owns the entire sample

Create a Worksheet

1. Open Worksheets.
2. Select Add.
3. Choose analyst, department, method, instrument, or template fields as configured.
4. Save.
5. Add received, unassigned analyses.

Only analyses in the appropriate state and not already assigned to another worksheet are normally available.

Worksheet Templates

Templates create repeatable worksheet layouts for common benches. Use them when the same analysis grouping happens daily or weekly.

Add QC Controls

Reference materials, blanks, spikes, and duplicates can be added to worksheets where configured. This keeps QC review in the same context as routine samples.

Enter and Submit Worksheet Results

Enter values row by row, save as needed, then submit the worksheet when the batch is complete. Samples whose analyses are all submitted move to To be Verified.

Instrument Integration

Worksheets may be exported to instruments or populated from instrument result files when an integration is configured. If your instrument output changes format, contact support before relying on imported results.
