Activities

Activities drive all data collection in MX Deposit. An activity dictates the type of data being captured, what the sampling parameters are and the lab information received.

There are two types of activities in MX Deposit: a drill hole activity and a point activity. Each activity, regardless of type, is built by adding elements already defined in your MX Deposit library. These include:

• A header from the Headers collection and one or more tables from the Tables collection. These are what loggers will fill out.
• Sampling objects from the Sampling collections. These are what data managers will fill out for managing samples to and from the lab.

• Viewing the Activities Library
• Deleting an Activity

Separate topics describe how to work with activities in MX Deposit and are divided into:

• Creating a New Activity
• Defining Activity Groups
• Customising Lists for an Activity
• Customising Tables for an Activity

Viewing the Activities Library

Activities are defined and managed under Site Settings > Activities and Projects > Activities.

The activity collection shows a summary of all of your activities. It is useful when creating an activity to include a description, so you can see at a glance what it is for.

You can copy existing activities by clicking Clone in the overflow menu.

Deleting an Activity

You can delete an activity from the library only if it is not used elsewhere in MX Deposit. If this is the case, a Delete option will be available in the Actions menu in the Properties panel or from the overflow menu.You will be asked to confirm your choice.
