When
The numbers on the lab check-in sheet correspond to the zone, not the sample numbers. This is because being a Zone directed, the samples are composited on a zone basis. So there can many samples in a single zone, and they don’t have to be continuous. Meaning a zone can have samples 1,5,10. While the others have the remaining samples. However, samples 1, 5, 10 are composited and put in a single back marked with the zone number.
So, in this instance, they probably labeled the bags with the sample numbers, not the zone numbers. Thus, they will come in incorrectly. We just need to be aware when they hit the system and adjust the number in the xml and resubmit. It will be an easy fix.
