You can create a filled CSV template with the information about Containers as

+### Extensibility
+The registration, update and export does not only work with RecordTypes and
+Properties that are defined within this module, but the data model can be
+extended by users of the system: Any Property that is added to the Sample
+RecordType can also be used within the workflow. Once an additional Property
+was added to the RecordType (say "width"), you can select a corresponding
+column during registration with the same name and also upload CSV templates
+that have this column. The Sample records will be created or updated to also
+have this ("width") column.
+
+If the Property that is added is a RecordType, it must be kind of an enum, i.e.
+it should be uniquely identified either by its name or by a sole property.
