When accessing the page, you may be prompted to log in to Spotfire. Click the `Log In` button and use the corporate button for automatic authentication. You should not be prompted again. ## From the Run Template Before accessing this page, some information is pre-calculated using the run template configuration: - The normalizations used: - Calculations are performed on your readouts. - Data may be added to plates or wells. - The automatic analysis: - Some wells may be automatically invalidated if the designer defined such rules. - The annotation types: - Annotation types may be added to wells or plates, allowing you to add extra values. For more information on calculations added by the designer, click the `See` buttons in the left panel under the `Run Details` section. ## Validation, Invalidation, and Revalidation By selecting your data and using the buttons in the top bar, you can invalidate aberrant wells. For instructions, see the [How To: Validate or Invalidate Data guide](/public/docs/validate-or-invalidate-data). ## Visualization Template Options The default visualization template is defined by the designer. - Switch templates by clicking the gear icon in the top right. - Hide the left panel by clicking the eye icon. - Use fullscreen mode by clicking the fullscreen icon in the region's top right. For more details, see [How To: Visualize Data and Change Template](/public/docs/visualize-my-data-and-change-template). ## Annotations You can add extra values to wells or plates using annotation values in the left panel, if defined in the run template. See [How To: Add Annotation Values or Comments](/public/docs/add-annotation-values) for instructions. ## Next Step Continue the design of the run by going to the next step: [Reference Analysis step](/public/docs/reference-analysis-execution-mode). If you don't have any reference well defined, you will not be able to access the sample analysis page. You can go directly to the step [Sample Mapping](/public/docs/sample-mapping-execution-mode). ![Next steps](https://cdn.document360.io/dde9293e-c107-4b3e-9774-9c9c296ed970/Images/Setting/assay-exec-well-validation-next-steps.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-10T23%3A52%3A38Z&se=2026-11-11T00%3A52%3A38Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=mXGGyk6WLOymTnLiNyd9kqOAaXVP61LSQ0TcgBbJnoY%3D)
