The guidance given in this chapter aims at assisting the novice IUCLID user to set up the application and use it immediately without having to read the details provided with this manual first, although links to specific chapters are given in case you wish to look for more details. This session is based on the following parts:
The First steps wizard which guides you through the different steps involved to setting up your application so that you can use it immediately: see chapter C.2 Starting IUCLID 5: First steps wizard.
A self-tutorial sample session which guides you through the most common features needed for handling a Substance dataset, which is the central core of information in IUCLID. This session is subdivided into the following chapters:
A number of real examples are presented in this hands-on session. These examples were taken from different published datasets, but are not necessarily related to the sample substances used. In this respect, all examples should be considered as fictitious.
The hands-on examples may not be relevant for your particular submission. Nonetheless, it can be helpful to carry out these self-tutorial exercises to get acquainted with the IUCLID functionality in general.
