Batch

Repeating a processing step several times is referred to as batch processing (also called batch or online batch).

Processing a batch in chromatographic applications means that several samples are automatically processed or analyzed in a defined order. Distinguish between:

• Online batch = batch during the chromatographic analysis

• Offline batch = batch after the analysis

After the chromatographic analysis of a batch, you may print or export the results or process them using an external program. To perform these actions, select Batch Report on the File menu in the Browser. The Batch Report uses the settings selected for the Batch Report Setup of the Printer Layout. A sample batch is also processed during the batch report. In this case, the batch is referred to as offline batch.

For more information, refer to Samples and Sequences  Automatic Batch Processing.

 Note:

Each modification of a quantification method results in an immediate recalculation of all involved variables. It is not necessary to recalculate data, as the displayed data is always up-to-date. This is to avoid inconsistencies between the QNT Method and the results.
