Objective
This article covers the Receptors tab on the Edit Site page in EnviroAutomate. This tab allows you to select which receptors apply to the site, which is used in environmental risk assessments and determines which investigation levels are relevant.
Prerequisites
Receptors and receptor groups must be configured in the system (under Scientific Settings)
What This Tab Shows
The Receptors tab displays an accordion layout organised by sampling matrix (e.g., Soil, Fresh Water). Within each matrix, receptors are grouped into receptor groups and subgroups. Each receptor has a checkbox and a colour indicator dot.
Key Actions
Select receptors - Check the boxes next to the receptors that apply to this site
Deselect receptors - Uncheck boxes to remove receptors from the site
Expand/Collapse All - Use the button at the top to expand or collapse all accordion sections at once
Save - Click "Save" to apply your receptor selections
Understanding the Layout
Accordion sections are organised by Matrix, then by Receptor Group, then by Subgroup
Each accordion header shows a badge with the count of selected receptors in that group
Colour indicator dots next to each receptor match the colours used in investigation level tables and reports
Cautionary Notes
Remember to click "Save" after making changes to your receptor selections
Changing receptor selections will affect which investigation levels are displayed on the Investigation Levels tab
Tips for Efficiency
Use the "Expand All" button to see all available receptors at once, then selectively check the ones that apply
Check the badge counts on collapsed sections to quickly see how many receptors are selected in each group without expanding
