Wanting a New Container Type

[LitsaWoo]

At our collection we have barcodes on our specimen skin tags. I can't seem to find the best container type to assign them to. We wanted to do collection object but we received the error that collection object can't have barcodes. We were going to try to change it to container type: tag

Is there a better option? If not perhaps we could have a new container type called: specimen

The "container" type is something that holds the specimen part= collection object. The part= collection object itself doesn't have a barcode (but it has a container ID and a partID!). I would recommend using "specimen label".

Cancel that - in this case, confusingly, I think specimen label is actually a "label" - if so it can't be assigned a part or scanned into a container until it is converted into some other non-label container type. This is similar to "cryovial label". @dustymc can confirm. The usage I see is at NMU - @keg34
So tag would be your best bet.
