1. Navigate to a sample listing. Note: the expected return date can only be changed when checking out a sample.

2. Locate the "Expected Return" box.

3. Insert the date you expect to return the sample to sample room.

3. Select the "Samples" link.

5. The "Sample Viewer" page will appear. The checked out date and the expected return date will appear under the "Checked Out Status" area.
