Maintaining Procedures

Overview

Procedures are groups of schemes and analytes that are used to register tests on samples.

This process is pertinent to laboratory and QC managers who configure the analytical environment for the laboratory.

Procedures for Clients

A procedure optionally links to either a client or client group, thereby making the procedure visible for selection only where the job is linked to the client, or a client in the client group, respectively.

Procedure Schemes

Procedures contain ANA (Analytical), HDR (Handler), PRP (Preparation) and/or MIS (Miscellaneous) schemes.

Process

Procedures are maintained using the Method application. You need specific rights to have visibility to this application.

Procedures are maintained using simple SCRUD (search, create, review, update, delete) functionality under the Methods » Procedures node. You need specific rights to have visibility to this node.

Maintain procedures

Each procedure contains the schemes and analytes that are assigned to a job when the procedure is assigned to the job.

Depending on the LIMS configuration, either combined or default scheme-analyte selection is used to display located schemes and analytes.
