Color iQC Help - X-Rite

Along with User Groups, you may use up to four e-Submit fields as
additional search criteria provided you have enabled that option. Immediately
below the User Group fields are two sets of drop-down lists. The set on the left
allows you to select from the e-Submit labels as defined in the current format file.
The set on the right allows you to select from the content options for each
selected label.
Sixth, you may perform a color search. Type L*a*b* values into the
appropriate boxes. Alternatively, you may choose any sample in the Job Tree
and then choose the Recall command to have the L*a*b* values for that sample
automatically entered into the boxes. Click the radio button for either DEcmc or
DE* and enter the desired DE value. When OK is pressed, the database will be
searched for samples with L*a*b* values within the specified DE of the L*a*b*
values entered here.
The seventh and last option is located at the bottom of the dialog and
allows you to instruct the program to only retrieve colormetric matches containing
formulas meeting specific conditions. There are three fields allowing you to
specify attributes of a formula: Fiber, DyeClass, and Process. Fiber allows you to
select a substrate for the formula you wish to retrieve. DyeClass allows you to
select the type of dye the formula contains, i.e., acid, disperse, vat, etc. Process
allows you to specify the process used for the actual dyeing, i.e., exhaust,
continuous, pad, or other. Of course, this option only works if the formulas stored
with the standard or trial had its attributes set at the time it was stored to the
database.
Selecting the Data from the Possible Matches
Once any search specifications are entered into the Recall from Database
dialog and you have clicked OK, a second dialog listing the possible matches to
your search will appear (see image below).
A fourth column is included in this dialog which displays each data item's
unique ID assigned to that item when it was originally read into the job. Use the
scroll bar to view this column when examining data whose names are identical
(generally primary data will all have the same name). The unique ID (consisting
of several letters and numbers combined) is displayed in Name tab of the data
items Properties… dialog.
