Activate Cart
The Cart has 2 main function: temporary storage of samples and Cart activation.
To activate the Cart means to enable it as a filter: selection of the "Activate Cart" option from the Cart's dropdown menu or from the "Manage Cart" page, the current contents of the Cart will be used as a filter list, just like for a tag activation, filtering the whole platform based on the samples in the Cart.
Cart activation (or alternatively, tag activation) is necessary to run an analysis. The cart will be automatically activated if it is selected as source of the sample collection for the analysis.
Cart activation overrides any active tag and its deactivation brings back to the previous status (i.e. if a tag was active before cart activation, that tag will be reactivated).
Cart activation differs from tag activation:
- The Cart is transient. It is not saved and can be modified quickly by adding and removing samples;
- With an active Cart, the whole platform is filtered based on the samples in it; this means that all elements in Check analysis, Check download and Check import are filtered too.
The video below shows how to activate and deactivate the Cart and its consequences on the platform.
