Assign calibration tasks
Instruments due for calibration are assigned for organization's users for calibration execution. This is done through Manage work view, which is used in planning and executing calibration activities. In the view you see the instruments that are due for calibration. The list is ordered based on the due date, with the most urgent (i.e. overdue) on top.
Navigate to the Assign for calibration page for more info about how to assign a calibration task for execution.
