To requeue and rework samples, specific role-based permissions are required. For details, see Configured Role-Based Permissions.
Occasionally, a sample must be rerun through a particular step. For example, there may have been a technical error in the lab. More sequencing may be needed at the end of a workflow if there are not enough samples.
To solve this problem, return samples to the queue and repeat the step.
There are several ways to requeue samples:
Search for the step with samples to requeue, view all samples that have completed this step, and choose the ones to requeue. See
Search for a specific sample to requeue. See
In addition to requeueing samples for the same step, you can also rework samples from a previous step. For example, an action is needed if there is an insufficient quantity of a particular sample to meet the required target concentration level.
In the search results list, select the arrow to the right of the step name to show details for all the samples that have been run through the step.
Select Requeue to requeue samples as required.
The Rework from <step name> option is reflected in the next steps field.
The sample no longer advances in the workflow, but the sample is now found in the queue for the selected rework step.
