      • To add a parameter(s) to the requested list, find each parameter and change Selected from No to Yes. For example, to find all the available analytes for method 300.0 in NPW, enter the corresponding Excel filters (matrix = NPW, method = 300.0). Change Selected to \u201dYes\u201d for those parameters the lab is requesting.<\/li>\n
      • Note: To reset all Excel filters, on the Data menu select Clear.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
