One of the four tabs in the Germplasm tool is the Create tab. Unlike the Search tab, the Create tab is viewable and accessible only to EBS administrators. This tab allows administrators to generate and upload new germplasm, seed, and package records. Administrators can also upload germplasm relation files.

From the Germplasm tool, click Create. The tab will display the germplasm upload browser, where you will see all germplasm record upload transactions in the system.
