Import storage via a CSV file is possible using the Import Storage function found in Admin 🡪 Storage 🡪 Import Storage.


Note

Be aware that importing into a position that already has a tube assigned to that position will result in the original value being replaced by the new tube.


Numeric positions (1,2,3…100) can be used instead of coordinates (A1, A2,…,J10).



  1. Select format of the data to be imported.
  2. Select the module and if it’s to be added as Main or Secondary storage.
  3. Add your file and choose its encoding or Copy and Paste lines from Excel.
  4. Select the owner. You can also choose to use numeric positions instead of coordinates, force Box naming, specify that there are labels on the first line of your file/pasted lines, and finally choose the field separator of your file.


Note

Import storage in Reagent & Supplies module works ONLY with Secondary storage.


NEW!: Import system now has the option to verify if the imported box positions are free or already occupied.
