# Reference Batches

Each unit batch can also be marked as a reference batch. This is done as follows:

## Creating Reference Batches

Proceed as follows:

From the top three main areas, select the "Batches" area. Then select the "Batch Search" tab. Now you can select a unit batch from the tabular representation of unit batches. To do this, click on the corresponding circular option field. Please note that only unit batches and not batch steps can be marked as reference batches!

In the last step, click on the button with the "*star*" symbol in the vertical toolbar on the left. Now enter a unique name for the reference batch in the opened modal window and close it with the "*Apply*" button. Now a section with "Reference Batches" is displayed in the lower section. This area is expandable and collapsible and is collapsed by default. You then have the option to view or select the created reference batches both here and above in the "Reference Batches" main area.

In the upper main area, further settings such as edit, delete, or measurement variable selection can be made.

Here, measurement variables that are not relevant for the reference batch can be deselected. When saving, only the relevant information is saved and displayed again during comparison.
