Secondary Batch Analysis of Multiple Projects
 | To export any output to Geneticist Assistant, User Management must be turned on for your NextGENe instance. See To turn on user management. |
You can use the NextGENe AutoRun tool to set up a new project, a secondary analysis project, based on the output from a previously created job that has yet to be processed. After the previously created job is processed, then the secondary analysis of its output files is automatically carried out.
1. Set up the job for the primary analysis as needed in the Auto Run tool. See To create a new job file in the NextGENe AutoRun tool.
2. On the main menu, click Edit > Add a secondary analysis job.
 | See Toolbar for an alternate method for the accessing this option. |
The NextGENe AutoRun window is refreshed and a placeholder (Job2) is created for the secondary analysis job.
3. In the Input sequence files pane, click Load > Load previous run output for secondary analysis.
The Load Previous Run Result dialog box opens. The files that are displayed in the dialog box depend on the settings file that was loaded for the previously created job.
4. Select the appropriate files for secondary analysis, and then click OK.
The Load Previous Run Result dialog box closes. You return to the Job Editor dialog box.
5. Continue with setting the job options for the secondary analysis in the NextGENe AutoRun tool as needed.
6. Click OK.
If you have not saved the job file, then you are prompted to specify a file name and location for the job file and after you save the file, the Job Editor dialog box closes; otherwise, the Job Editor dialog box simply closes. You have now created the necessary job files.
