Check-in Check-out
Introduction
Specimens are sometimes taken out of a box, but users may also need to reserve the position for when the specimen is returned. This process is known as 'Specimen check-out' when retrieving the specimen and blocking the position, and 'Specimen check-in' when storing it back in its original location. When a specimen was previously retrieved, the box position would become available for reuse with a different specimen. Now, with the 'Check-Out' feature, users can reserve the position, preventing its reassignment.
Introduced in v10.1

Specimens listed in the order can be returned to their original locations from which they were checked out during distribution.
Bulk Import
You can use the bulk import ‘Update’ function to check out specimens in bulk. Please see the 'Specimen' CSV below to check out the samples. For more details, refer to the wiki page for specimen CSV.
