From the small molecule library page in Screensaver (with all libraries listed), I noticed the date first plated for MLP is in 2014, even though they were received and screened in 2011.
@dwrobel1 :
That's a mystery to me. I actually don't enter the date first plated information and can't think of anything I do that would change this value. Looking at MLP-1 as an example, the last load I did was in March 2012 but the date first plated is April 2014. If you look at the copy information it also has April 2014 as the date plated
Background:
According to the code, the "Date First Plated" for the library is set in two cases:
when the library is created, if the "-ds" flag is set
when new plates are created, using the "date of activity", if:
-- the date first plated is not set
-- or the date of activity for the plate creation is less than the date first plated.
Given these conditions, I am not sure why the date first plated was set to 2014; I can deduce, however, that this value may not have been set yet when, on 2014/04 the plates were created.
