Add a Lab Contact

A Lab Contact is the person at your home institution responsible for a shipment — typically whoever is packing and sending the dewar. ISPyB/Synchweb needs at least one Lab Contact on file before you can create a shipment.

  1. With your proposal selected, open Lab Contacts from the proposal menu.
  2. This shows the lab contacts already on file for the current proposal.
  3. Click Add Lab Contact in the top right corner.
  4. Fill in the Add Home Lab Contact form with the contact's details (name, institution, address, phone, email).
  5. Click Add Contact to save and return to the contacts list.

Add your Lab Contact before you plan to ship — you'll need one on file to create a shipment in the next step.
