Link between material sample and preparation #29

Open cgendreau opened 4 years ago

cgendreau commented 4 years ago

From @jmacklin : A material sample may be sub-sampled from 1..N times. These sub-samples will likely then become catalogued objects so that is fine, however, a sub-sample of a material sample may be sent on loan for ID and thus again will need an identifier. The problem is that Loans are tied to preparations and a material sample is not a preparation… unless it is ;-)

The way I see that (at least for now) is that you will send a CataloguedObject on loan (a product of a preparation). By doing it like that you would have an identifier and you would also be able to attached the determination to it once you receive it back.

This should be sufficiently covered in the description of preparation processes now. @cgendreau: If so, this issue could be closed.

jmacklin commented 3 years ago

Agreed! So, we now loan physical entities that are typically catalogued but are not required to be.
