Management
Group supervisor
In VarSome Clinical it is possible to set up a group supervisor for your account. The group supervisor is a VarSome Clinical user with certain privileges that other users from the same group will not have.
This user will have the ability to create, change and track:
- Workflows: create workflows with fixed parameters which can be used by you or other colleagues to launch analyses using pre-defined parameters.
- Launch analysis without a workflow: the supervisor can limit this option so that users can only launch analyses defined by him or her.
- Assay preferences: select an assay of a list of assays so that those are shown in the first place when someone is selecting an assay for launching an analysis.
- Storage preferences: as a group supervisor, you can modify the storage preferences of your group and decide how much time you would like to keep FASTQ or BAM files for example. Find more information here.
- Analysis preferences: you can enable the sensitive mode for CNV calling and decide if VarSome Picks should run automatically.
- Audit trail access: this keeps a record of different actions performed by the users of your group.
If you do not have a group supervisor yet or would like to change the group supervisor role to a different user, please contact our support team to change this.
Storage Management
Storage fees are calculated at the end of each month, based on the volume of data that has been uploaded into VarSome Clinical in order to run analyses. They reflect the storage costs of Saphetor data centers or the storage costs charged by 3rd parties (like GCP - Google Cloud Platform) to Saphetor.
If a new sample has been uploaded during a given month, the storage costs for that month will be prorated based on the day of the upload.
Saphetor is not responsible for monitoring or managing the storage cost of any customer. This should be done by each end customer, possibly in coordination with the local distributor.
