Howto: Create Collection
Create a Collection
- Navigate to the relevant Project in the Lab Notebook menu
- Select Collection from the +New dropdown, as shown below. Please note that your openbis instance might have different types of Experiments, depending on how it has been configured by the Instance admin.
- Fill in the Name of the Collection and choose the Default Object Type and Default collection view. For more info about Collections, see Customize Collection View and Collections of Materials
- Click Save on top of the form.
The Default Object Type defines the Object that is set as default to be added as a new object, if one uses the +New button. Anyhow, it can be set to (empty), if one does not want to specify a specific object.
Customise Collection View
It is possible customise the view of Collections in the ELN.
The default Collection can have a Form View or a List View. Depending on this selection, the collection view will be different.
To edit a Collection, one need to use the "More ..." >>> "Edit Collection"
Form View: This shows the metadata of the Collection along with the table of objects. This view is useful when a user wants to see specific metadata for a Collection.
