6. Enter the Test Name (analyte) and Test Units used for each test.
Note:
If the test name is similar and the units are the same for
each test, after entering the first test name and unit, click the
Apply Suffix or Apply Unit buttons as appropriate.
Apply Suffix—this button applies the number one to the first
test name. For each successive test name it applies the test name
and number at one increment higher than the previous test name.
For example: Suffix = Protein, then Test 1 is Protein 1, Test 2 is
Protein 2, and so on.
Apply Unit—this button applies the same unit value entered on
the first line to all other tests. For example, if mg/uL is entered
for the first Test Unit, then select Apply Unit to make all tests
mg/uL.
