You can edit a MyVariants database in Ion Reporter™ Software.
IMPORTANT! Edits to MyVariants can affect the MyVariants settings that are made by
other members of the organization if you are sharing a MyVariants database.
You can change the Important
or Ignore flags
that are associated with variants in a MyVariants database.
If you delete an analysis that includes a variant that is labeled as Important or Ignore, the MyVariants database is unaffected and the variant flags, notes, and classifications remain.
You can also add notes to variants in a MyVariants database.
In the
Analyses tab,
click
MyVariants.
In the
MyVariants
table, select a specific MyVariants database from the list.
Review the flags, notes and classifications for each variant, then update each
of the options, if needed.
In the
(Flag)
column, expand
(Flag list),
then select the appropriate flag.

Important
The flag icon becomes orange in the row of the
variant and the variant is added to the MyVariants
database.
Important is used
to track variants that are relevant to the
research.

by default. Select None to
remove an Important or
Ignore flag and to remove a
variant from the MyVariants database.
