Create and Customize EM Workflow Chains
Currently, EM workflows are not part of the Environmental Monitoring bundle installed via the L7|Hub, but they are required to properly generate samples. EM workflows and workflow chains are created in the L7|MASTER App just like any other process models.
Requirements
When creating EM workflow chains, they need to consist of at least two workflows, where the first workflow is automatically processed to generate samples and handle automation required for environmental monitoring, e.g. label printing.
First workflow, 2 protocols
This first workflow has to consist of exactly two protocols.
First protocol is a standard protocol and should have a column named Location with type Resource Link.
Second protocol
Second protocol should be a pipeline protocol and is responsible for automation required in sample generation.
Final step
Once created, the workflow chain must be associated with a sample type in the “sampleTypes” code block of the EM configuration file in the Config App by either a developer or advanced super user.
Assigned workflow chains and workflows can be seen in EM App’s Sample tab.
