Error Flags

Each concentration result may appear with a concentration result 'Flag'. The following table lists each possible concentration result flag and its description. The flags are listed in the order in which they are prioritized, from highest to lowest. If a sample concentration results in more than one error being flagged, the flag with the highest priority is displayed.

Error flags will be displayed on the Analysis page. However, if there is more than one flag related to a sample, only the flag of highest priority (as discussed above) will be displayed.

Flag	Description	Conc/Intensity	Measurement/Replicate
--	All replicates have been excluded	Both	Measurement
####	The signal has overranged	Both	Replicate
Error	No FACT model exists	Both	Replicate
Error	Unable to calculate internal standard ratio	Both	Measurement
Uncal	The cell is uncalibrated	Concentration	Replicate
!	The solution has been remeasured	Both	Measurement
e	Solution has been edited	Both	Measurement
x	Incomplete model	Both	Replicate
o	Concentration is over the calibration range	Concentration	Replicate
u	Concentration is under the calibration range	Concentration	Replicate
i	Internal standard not run yet	Both	Measurement
#	An overrange is present	Both	Replicate
m	Unable to model the measurement	Both	Replicate
W	QC spike failure	Concentration	Measurement
*	Duplicate sample failure	Concentration	Measurement
L	LCS failure	Concentration	Measurement
Q	CCV, ICV failure	Concentration	Measurement
N	Matrix spike failure	Concentration	Measurement
Z	ICB, CCB failure	Concentration	Measurement
K	Interferent Check Standard A	Concentration	Measurement
G	Interferent Check Standard AB	Concentration	Measurement
E	Serial Dilution	Concentration	Measurement
R	CRDL limit failure	Concentration	Measurement
Y	Prep blank failure	Concentration	Measurement
S	QC setup failure	Concentration	Measurement
J	LSpike failure	Concentration	Measurement
A1, A2...	All Sample QC failure	Concentration	Measurement
P	Component - Inhalational, Oral or Parenteral	Concentration	Measurement
CT	Control Threshold - Inhalational, Oral or Parenteral	Concentration	Measurement
P	Product - Inhalational, Oral or Parenteral	Concentration	Measurement
b	Line has a related interferent that is above the extended calibration range (IEC correction still applied)	Concentration	Replicate
p	Internal modeling only	Concentration	Replicate

There are a number of default QC failure flag names, which are listed on the QC Test types and Failure flags page.
