To generate a Batch Variants report based on a new configuration
The name for a Batch Variants report is automatically assigned based on the sample ID number and sample name for each sample for which you are generating the report (for example, 76_800458.variants.filter) and you cannot change this. You must select a location in which to save the report. A separate report is saved for each sample selected.
1. Open the location from which you are generating the report:
• The Samples sub-tab on the Patient tab.
• The Runs tab.
• The Samples pane on the Run tab.
• The Associated Samples pane on the Variant tab.
2. Do one of the following:
• Select the sample or CTRL-click to select the multiple samples for which the Batch Variants report is to be generated, and then right-click any selected sample, and on the context menu that opens, click Export > Create Batch Variants report.
• Select the run or CTRL-click to select the multiple runs for which the Batch Variants report is to be generated, and then right-click any selected run, and on the context menu that opens, click Export > Create Batch Variants report.
The Batch Variants report dialog box opens.
3. On the Report Type dropdown list, select the report type. (The default value is .csv)
4. If a Batch Variants report has previously been generated and saved, then the location in which the report was saved is displayed in the Save To field when the Batch Variants Report dialog box opens; otherwise, the default value of C:/Users/<User>/Desktop is displayed. Do one of the following:
• Leave this location as-is, and then go to Step 5.
• To change this location, then next to the Save To field, click the Browse button 
, and then browse to and select the location in which the report is to be saved.

6. By default, “comma” is selected for the report delimiter. You can leave this value as-is, or you can select “tab,” or “other.” If you select “other,” then a blank field is enabled and you must specify the delimiter, for example, an underscore (_) in this field.
7. Optionally, to set the display preferences for the report, do any of the following:
• Rearrange the data columns.
• Rename a column header.
• Show/hide columns (manually or by loading a configuration).
| | For detailed information about working with data columns, including moving and renaming columns, or showing/hiding columns, see Setting Display Preferences in the Geneticist Assistant Main Window. |
8. Optionally, to view an onscreen preview of the report before it is generated and saved, click Preview.
9. Click OK.
The Batch Variants report is generated for all selected samples. After the report is successfully generated, a Batch Report Finished message opens, indicating that the report was generated and where the report was saved.
10. Click OK.
The dialog box closes. You return to a blank Current Jobs tab on the Geneticist Assistant main window.
