Sample Type Hierarchy
The General sample type is a subtype of the Sample and Sample Request types.
You can configure the com.lcs.wc.sample.LCSSample.Product.Root property setting to determine the types that appear when you are creating a new sample request for a product in the Sample tab. This property defaults to Sample\\Product out-of-the-box.
com.lcs.wc.sample.LCSSample.Product.Root=Sample\\Product
This property allows you to search the sample type based on product, sourcing configuration, and specification criteria. For example, if you click Sample > Product or any types underneath that type, the Product Type, Sourcing Configuration Type, and Specification Type trees appear.
