Tags: [[OpenSpecimen Summary]] [[Gotchas_Category]]

== Diagnosis

1. When trying to enter samples into OpenSpecimen you get an error saying `Specimen Lavel Required...`

== Resolution

1. Check that all the labels that require a name, have a name.
2. Check that all labels that should have an auto-generated label have a valid `label format` set in the `Events` tab of the protocol.
3. Check that the study protocol does not have `User Inputs Allowed For` ticked for `Specimen Labels`
