I have a mix of single index and dual index Illumina NextSeq reads mixed with dual index. The program bcl2fastq demultiplexed all of the dual index reads great, but I can't seem to figure out how to demultiplex single index reads. Suggestions / help wanted please! I'm interested in learning how to demultiplex single index from both / either bcl and / or fastq files. So any solution will be appreciated!

This is my SampleSheet.csv. Everything from sample 250 on worked great. Everything from 61-25 not so much

Look into --use-bases-mask option for bcl2fastq.
To get only those samples that contain the single index you would use --use-bases-mask Y*,I6,n6,Y*. You will have to edit RunInfo.xml file in flowcell folder (make a backup first) and change the line <Read Number="3" NumCycles="6" IsIndexedRead="Y" /> to <Read Number="3" NumCycles="6" IsIndexedRead="N" />. Edit the SampleSheet.csv to remove all 2D samples. When you run bcl2fastq do not forget to specify a new location for output directory.
