Fields

• Batch Name Syntax Code

  The code of the syntax used to generate the subcontract batch job's Job Name.

  A syntax may be selected from the drop-down list that contains active syntaxes in scope with a Syntax Type of Batch Name, as configured in the CCSNTX—Syntax application. Click the field hyperlink to display the CCSNTX—Search Syntax screen, select the appropriate value and click Select and Return to populate the field with the selected value.

  Where the generated subcontract batch job's Job Name is not unique within scope, then an error is raised.

  Where the entered or generated subcontract batch job's Job Name does not satisfy name validation, that is, if the name contains non-printable characters, then an error is raised.

• Batch Job Template Name

  Name of the job to be used as a template for the creation of the subcontract batch.

  A job may be selected from the drop-down list that contains active jobs in scope with a Job Type of Template, as configured in the CCREGN—Job application. Click the field hyperlink to display the CCREGN—Search Job screen, select the appropriate value and click Select and Return to populate the field with the selected value. Scope rules apply. If the scope of the entity is org-scope then the drop-down list for the linked entity contains org-scope entities only, and the entity can be linked to org-scope entities only. If the scope of the entity is lab-scope then the drop-down list for the linked entity contains both org-scope and lab-scope entities, and the entity can be linked to either org-scope or lab-scope entities.

• Sample Scheme QC Mode

  Mode of adding QC samples to the subcontract batch:

  • No QC—No QC samples are added to the subcontract batch job. If any replicate, blank, standard or spike QC samples are selected as source samples, they are passed into the subcontract batch job along with any selected unknown and duplicate QC samples.
  • Scheme QC—QC samples based on the selected sample schemes are added to the subcontract batch job. If any replicate, blank, standard or spike QC samples are selected as source samples, they are passed into the subcontract batch job along with any selected unknown and duplicate QC samples, AND NO FURTHER QC SAMPLES ARE ADDED USING SCHEME QC, that is, it is treated as the "No QC" option. Otherwise, the QC masks set on the source sample schemes are used to add QC samples to the selected samples and placed into the subcontract batch job.
  • Template QC—Only QC samples based on the same scheme as in the first sample of the job template are added to the subcontract batch job. If any replicate, blank, standard or spike QC samples are selected as source samples then they are passed into the subcontract batch job along with any selected unknown and duplicate QC samples, AND NO FURTHER QC SAMPLES ARE ADDED USING TEMPLATE QC, that is, it is treated as the "No QC" option. Otherwise, the QC masks set on the first sample within the selected Batch Job Template, for the relative scheme, are used to add QC samples to the selected samples and placed into the subcontract batch job. This means that if a Batch Job Template is chosen where the relative scheme does not exist, then no QC samples is added for that scheme.

  When an org-scope scheme is enabled for laboratory use, the enabled-scope scheme version record that is created inherits its QC Mask Code from the org-scope scheme version. The enabled-scope scheme version's QC Mask Code can be changed by enabling the read only property in the ALLOW_SCHEMEVERSION_EDITABLE_PROPERTIES. When the field is enabled, the QC Mask Code can easily be swapped and persisted.

  The following scenarios track where the QC Mask Code is coming from:

  • An org-scope scheme is added to a sample in an org-scope template job, then the sample scheme's QC Mask Code is inherited from the org-scope scheme version.
  • An lab enabled scheme is added to a sample in a lab-scope job (template or non-template), then the sample scheme's QC Mask Code is inherited from the enabled-scope scheme version.
  • A lab-scope scheme is added to a sample in a lab-scope job (template or non-template), then the sample scheme's QC Mask Code is inherited from the lab-scope scheme version.

• Subcontract Laboratory Code

  The code of the laboratory subcontracted to prepare/analyse the sample schemes.

  A subcontract laboratory can be selected from the drop-down list that contains active laboratories that are members of the laboratory group defined by the SUBCONTRACT_LABS application preference, excluding the current laboratory. Click the field hyperlink to display the CCLBRT—Search Laboratory screen, select the appropriate value and click Select and Return to populate the field with the selected value.

• Auto-create Paperwork

  Used in script. Indicates whether to create paperwork automatically for the subcontract batch job.
