===== Labels =====

The database offers two possibilities of creating and printing labels:

==== Creating labels via the labels form ====


A click on the Labels button opens a search form for the production of labels for specimens / observation records. Available options include:

  * the standard search form: This allows you to find any specimen within the database. 
  * the barcode label interface: By choosing your institution and entering a range of collection numbers you can print barcode labels for selected parts of he collection.
  * the specimenID entry field: allows finding a specimen by its specimenID

In the list created by the search process you can select the labels you need by ticking the corresponding boxes. Options are "Type map label" (creates a folder label) "Type spec label" (creates a specimen label) and "barcode label". As soon as you have finished your selection, you can create a printable .pdf by clicking the "make PDF" buttons on top of the search list. Please note that each type of label (folder/specimen/barcode/standard) has its own button.

After printing the labels please do not forget to delete your selection by clicking the "clear all" button.


==== Creating labels via the edit specimen form ====

You can access the printing form by clicking the specimenID in the edit specimen form. Tick the “type spec” box if you need a specimen label and/or the “type map” box if you need a folder label. The “make pdf” button creates a printable file. After printing the labels do not forget to delete your selection by clicking “clear all” 

The same procedure is available for standard (non-type) labels.

==== Special cases ====

== Pro Parte synonyms: ==

Labels for pro parte names can only be printed by the typification team and are usually added to the specimen by them. If there is no labelling option available, it is most probably because of a pro parte name. In this case type and accepted taxon are not linked on purpose, and you can find an annotation in the annotations field of the specimens form.
