In this chapter, examining the Bika | Senaite workflow foundation, scoped around Samples and the Analyses they contain.
Batching and Worksheets are musts for bigger volumes, recounted in the next few chapters
Overview. Workflow in four steps
11.1 Manually one by one, assisted with Analysis Profiles and Sample Templates
Another quick way to register a Sample is to copy an older Sample
Video. Sample registration in Batches
11.2 Sampling workflow can be included for labs doing it themselves

11.3 Automatically at Sample registration or receipt. From Sample lists and views. 'Samples Received' email to clients Video
