The Name and Label field for each storage unit are indexed so that you can easily search later for any particular storage. Instead of using the default/generic naming, customize the names of your storage or include any helpful text in the label (such as a barcode) that helps identify storage.
When you are searching later for a specific storage unit, you can find it by terms in the name or label.
In the search results, you will see the storage hierarchy where that box is located making it easy to find. The full path to the location is also indexed, so if, for example, you search for a shelf or freezer name, you'll see all the individual storage units within it.
Click any storage unit in the results to jump directly to the Storage View where you can add new samples or work with existing contents.
You can also search for storage units by name or label from the popup modal for adding samples to storage from a grid or list.
