A working list is like your shopping cart — you can choose and add seeds that you want to save for later use. You must first access the working list browser by clicking the icon from the search results browser. Once you’ve added records, you may manage them by arranging and deleting them, adding them as a list, exporting them, and more.

 

Import items from list

Even after adding seed records to the working list, you may add more records from your saved package list.

  1. From the Working List toolbar, click then select Import from Saved List.

 

  1. From the Select a Save List modal window, you can only see your saved lists and those shared with you. Click beside the list you want to import. You will be redirected to the working list browser with the imported seeds from your saved list.

 

Remove items

You can remove the records from your working list in two ways.

Remove selected items

  1. From the Working List browser, select the records that you want to remove by ticking the checkboxes on the left side.

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 3 until satisfied with the seed list.

 

Clear the working list

From the Working List toolbar, Click the Remove list items button , then select Clear List.

This action cannot be undone and your seed list will not be saved. Do this only if you’re sure that you want to discard the seed list.

Give your seed list a meaningful name that helps you quickly identify what seeds are included and for which experiment it will be used.
