Configure QC Evaluation Criteria

In the default BaseSpace Clarity LIMS system, each QC master step has two sets of QC evaluation criteria defined. These are displayed in the Record Details screen when the QC step is run.

Each set of criteria comprises three master step fields: Source Data Field, Operator, and Threshold Value.

When the QC protocol step is run, the lab scientist selects from the prepopulated drop-down lists of Source Data Field and Operator values, and then types a numeric value into the Threshold Value field.

You may want to restrict the values available for selection from the Source Data Field and Operator lists, or set default criteria values that cannot be changed.

The best practice method for configuring the criteria used to evaluate QC protocol steps is to create a group of defaults. The master step fields defined in the group overwrite the default configuration values.

For details, see Configure Groups of Defaults.
