Example: Filter for assay elements

Set up a section filter for assay elements to aggregate data only from specific assay elements of your source documents.

Filter for source documents with a Test sample

You can configure section filters such that PLA 3.0 aggregates data only from source documents that have a Test sample.

From the six documents in the following example, all have a Test sample. Therefore, PLA 3.0 aggregates data from all source documents.
Filtering source document data based on the availability of Test samples
Figure 1. Filtering source document data based on the availability of Test samples
To set up this filter, in the Column: Section data table node of the Content editor of your target document, complete the following steps:
  • Add a Property filter element.
  • As the Property key, enter http://www.stegmannsystems.com/bioassay/elementtype.
  • As the Term enter Test (for Test sample).

Filter for source documents with a Test and a Control sample

You can configure section filters such that PLA 3.0 aggregates data only from source documents that have a Test and a Control sample.

From the six documents in the following example, only two document have a Test and a Control sample. Therefore, PLA 3.0 aggregates data only from these two documents.
Filtering source document data based on the availability of Test and Control samples
Figure 3. Filtering source document data based on the availability of Test and Control samples
To set up this filter, in the Column: Section data table node of the Content editor of your target document, complete the following steps:
  • Add two Property filter elements.
  • As the Property key for both elements, enter http://www.stegmannsystems.com/bioassay/elementtype.
  • As the Term for the first property filter, enter Test (for Test sample).
  • As the Term for the second property filter, enter Control (for Control sample).

Tip: This filter setup requires your source documents to include both assay elements. If your source documents require only one of these assay elements, use one property filter with two terms, one for each assay element.
