Create a Planned Run from a Planned Run template
You can create Planned Runs from a preinstalled or custom Planned Run template that contains run settings. The preinstalled Planned Run templates are included in the software for standard research applications and kits, such as Ion AmpliSeq™ or Oncomine™ workflows. Custom Planned Run templates can be created as described in Create a custom Planned Run template
When creating a Planned Run from a preinstalled Planned Run template, some settings are predefined by the template and some remain to be selected or completed. The predefined settings can vary between Planned Run templates. You can change any of the settings to create your Planned Run, even those settings that are predefined in the Planned Run template.
Most Planned Run templates have a corresponding Ion AmpliSeq™ or Oncomine™ panel. When you create a Planned Run from a Planned Run template, the Create Plan workflow bar opens to the Plan step, which is the final step in the Planned Run creation process. You can accept all Planned Run template settings if you enter only a run plan name and sample names then save a Planned Run from the template. Or, you can further customize the Planned Run if you open other steps and change information in the Planned Run wizard.
- In the Plan tab, click Templates, then select the desired research application from the left navigation menu.
- In the Template Name column of the templates table, click the template name. Alternatively, you can click Favorites, then click the template name, if the template is in the favorites list.
- The Run Plan Name is prepopulated with the template name. Enter new text to create a unique Planned Run name.
-
Complete additional settings in the Plan step if needed. For more information about the individual settings, see Plan step in the workflow bar.
As you make selections, the settings are updated in the Summary pane. You can also use the information in this pane to review the settings that are predefined by the template.
- Click other steps in the workflow bar to enter or change settings if needed. For more information, see Steps in the workflow bar.
-
When you have completed your selections, review the settings in the Summary pane, then click Plan Run at the bottom of the Plan step.
The Planned Run is added to the Planned Runs table and can be used in an instrument run.
