Afskrivning

Danish to English Science Management Text about receiving and recording samples at laboratory
Afskrivning features a couple of times and doesn't seem to have it's usual meanings of "writing off" or "copying" in this context. Any suggestions? Here is one section where it features.

8.2 Afskrivning af test- og referencestoffer
Ved modtagelse af forskningsprodukter, primære og sekundære standarder og tør pulver produkter skal der udfyldes et afskrivnings-skema (bilag 7), medmindre stoffet er radioaktivt (sektion 10).

Eksempel på afskrivning:
• 2 x 250 mg stof modtages og et eksemplar af bilag 7 udfyldes
• 1 x 250 mg stof opløses i buffer og der udportioneres 250 rør
• Et nyt eksemplar af bilag 7 udfyldes
• Skemaerne opbevares i mappe på modtagestedet.

receipt of disposal

There are a few different uses for afskrivning, but it sounds like the context is in a laboratory that handles chemicals and materials which must be accounted for in an environmental impact report. In the case of radioactive materials, disposal is not possible.
