Hi,

When configuring the mass annotation importer plugin, an error is thrown
when one has mapped only the names of the raw bioassays, and not their
ID:

"A mapping for either 'Name' or 'Internal ID' must be given. "

This happens even when the mapping for the name has already been
provided. 

When I then include a separate column in the data file with the BASE ID,
and add that as a mapping during plugin configuration, the import
proceeds without error and the raw bioassays are annotated.

Is this a bug or just me being silly?

Also: the only reason I am trying to do things this way is because it
seems the only way to automate annotation of raw bioassays, but
technically they should really inherit their annotations from the
appropriate entity upstream (e.g. BioSources). Is there any means of
"batch-inheriting" annotations, without having to set them manually for
every bioassay in the experiment individually? Can't seem to find
anything in the docu regarding this.

Cheers

Micha
