Naming attributes

In this context, attribute refers to a System Platform attribute such as Sample.SampleID, Sample.Lot, and Sample.Sublot. These attribute names are pre-fixed such that they cannot be changed either at configuration time or at run time. In some cases, part of an attribute name is added from the MES database:

• Characteristic names (characteristic.char_name)

• Sample attribute descriptions (attr.attr_desc for attr_grp = 10)

• Result attribute descriptions (attr.attr_desc for attr_grp = 11)

These attribute names can be renamed at configuration time.

The descriptions of the System Platform attributes are as follows:

MES Sample Attributes

Result Attributes
