USING:
Select the variable you wish to locate. Set the decimal formatting. Choose your Heading and Options. The variable will be placed into the currently selected cell.
The cells for which variable references are associated are formatted according to the current settings for the selected variable in System Setup, Edit/View Variables. The number of decimal places, the type of variable and whether or not to accept "<", ">", and "ND" entries are all fields which can change format settings of a cell that stores data into a variable. Each time a form is loaded for data entry, these settings are changed based on their current values.

The Sample Info tab allows Lab Cal Users to setup cells to allow users to enter sample and analysis data. For example, along with the result, users can enter Analysis Start and End Times instead of using the Lab Cal Close/Edit Sample Form. The following Lab Cal Fields can be located:
SAMPLE_DATETIME: Sets the Sample Date/Time. Note: The Date/Time entered MUST be in the day (data slot) for which it was scheduled. If a Sample Date/Time is entered for a different day a warning message will be displayed and the Sample Datetime will NOT be saved. You must use Lab Cal to move a sample.
SAMPLED_BY: Set to the personnel who took the sample.
RECEIVED_BY: Sets the person who received the sample in the Lab.
RECEIVED_DATETIME: Sets the date/time the sample was received in the lab.
ASSIGNEDTO: Samples can be assigned to personnel. This allows the calendar to be filtered to show only samples assigned to an individual. In Sample Setup you can set the default Assigned To
ANALYSIS_START: The date and time the analysis was started.
ANALYSIS_END: The date/time the analysis was completed.
ANALYZED_BY: The person who analyzed the test.
