automatic filename & sample ID composition variables

Post by michaellessing »

Hello again,

for the sampleID and sample column in the sequence table my customer would very much like to have a variable for "Day of week beginning on Monday". Do you think you could integrate this in the next update?

Thank you very much for your help

Dear Michael,
I have just checked the behavior of the Clarity 2.7 station in this issue and have found out that there is a minor bug connected to the variable "Day of week beginning on Sunday", which in fact brings the day number beginning on Monday (tested today, on Wednesday, which produces a result of 3).
I have reported the bug to our programmers along with the suggestion for the variable as you described - so both options should be available after this bug is repaired.

With Clarity version 3.0 released, this issue is resolved.
In the Single Run dialog and the Sequence window, the %u variable represents the day of the week beginning on Sunday, and %w variable represents the day of the week beginning on Monday.
