# Quality order sampling

When a quality order is generated, the sample quantity is calculated according to the defined item sampling. In the case of quality orders with **Advanced** item sampling, it is possible to inquire how the total sample quantity is divided into smaller samples by pressing **Inquiries > Quality order sampling** in the **Quality orders** form.

The **Quality order sampling** form has the following fields:

- **Line number**: the field is automatically populated with sequential numbering.
- **Analysis type**: inherited from the **Analysis type** field in the **Advanced quality order sampling** form.
- **Sampling quantity**: defined in the **Advanced item sampling** form (**Life Sciences Quality Control & Assurance > Setup > Quality control > Item sampling > Advanced**). The user can override the value at a quality order sampling level (e.g., an additional sample is required).
- **Sample unit**: defined in the **Advanced item sampling** form (**Life Sciences Quality Control & Assurance > Setup > Quality control > Item sampling > Advanced**).
- **Sub batch type**: the sub batch type values will be inherited from the ones defined in the **Advanced item sampling** form (**Life Sciences Quality Control & Assurance > Setup > Quality control > Item sampling > Advanced**); it will be possible to override them at the quality order level.
