add QC state field in an assay? Ben Bimber  2010-07-06 13:07

I'd like to add QC state fields to some assays. While I doubt I can actually add a 'QC state' field in the same sense as the study QC state, it would be nice to mimic this as much as possible. I'm planning to just create an integer field called 'QC state'. It will lookup against the same study.QCstate table used by the main study. This will allow it to grab available QC states and 'public' values. I may or may not

I have a couple questions:

1. Can/should I add any sort of concept or propertyURI to this field?

2. When I edit a QWP button bar, certain built-in buttons can be accessed by name (ie. LABKEY.QueryWebPart.standardButtons.insertNew). Can I grab the QC state button like this?

Hi Ben,

1. We don't yet have an established concept or property URI for QC state fields on anything other than datasets. I'll open a 10.3 issue to establish one, even if we don't do anything special with it yet, so that at least we can tag fields for use in future releases.

2. Adding built-in buttons only works for buttons that are already exposed on the specific button bar. It doesn't let you add buttons from another place in the UI. So, you won't be able to easily add the QC state button from datasets and apply it to assays.

Thanks,
Josh
