An

status means that there are no available packages for that entry in your program. New seed sources for the entry will have to be made available for your experiment. You can do this by: 1) harvesting materials for the entry, or 2) transferring packages from another program to yours.

Expand
titleWhy can't I see my experiment in the Experiment Manager tool?

There are two ways to troubleshoot this issue:

  1. Check if you already finalized the experiment in the Experiment Creation tool. Once done, the experiments can be accessed in the Experiment Manager tool, or

  2. Check if you are using the correct data filter for your program by viewing the program’s acronym displayed in the menu bar. If the program is incorrect, you can change it using the data filter ((blue star)) icon.

titleWhy are my field layout coordinates missing?

Missing field layout coordinates might mean that you did not tick the checkbox for "Design layout matches Planting area and Field layout" when you generated the location. You can still upload your field coordinates by downloading ((blue star)) the mapping file of the occurrence you wish to fill-out and then uploading it back to EBS. You can download the mapping file from the Experiment Manager toolbar or data browser.

Expand
titleWhy are the design arrays of the occurrence missing?

Missing design arrays in your occurrence might mean that you did not tick the “Define dimension” checkbox during the experiment creation process in the Experiment Creation tool’s planting arrangement step.

Expand
titleWhy am I getting an 'error' status after I upload my data collection file?

The status indicates that your upload transaction encountered some issues. You can delete ((blue star)) the upload transaction in the data browser and re-upload your data collection file.
