Results Capture

Best Practice. Use Worksheets

It is rather cumbersome to capture results manually per each Sample's Results page, much easier on Worksheets where results can also be reviewed in context of their peers and reference and control analyses

Cloned from their respective Analysis Services, home to all Analyses are their Samples. Worksheets provide a different window on them, but they live on Samples

One Sample at a time then. Manually

Once Samples are in Received state, results and the other variables Method and Instrument etc. becomes editable on the Sample View pages. Earlie results were capture on a separate Mange Results tab

Immediate Results Capture

In labs workflow necessitates that results be capture immediately after the Samples were created

Multi Results

When the [Multi Results] is clicked on lists of Received Samples, a page is opened with only the results tables for the Samples, without all its header information taking up space which is handy for small Samples

Results Interpretations

Canned text to use on Samples and COAs

Attachments

Microscope images and the likes

Save and Submit Results

Once results have been entered, they can be saved to be submitted for Verification. The result is automatically selected when the user navigates away from a completed results field and the row background turns blue

The intermediate Save step does not submit the results for verification yet, but triggers calculations and valid range specifications. It also allows the user to navigate away from a partly completed Sample, to continue capturing and saving more results later

Saving results don't change Analysis states, when they are submitted for verification, do results advance their Analyses to To be Verified state

With Analyses selected, relevant transition buttons are displayed, including [Save] and  [Submit]. Click

The selected Analyses change state to To be Verified, and the results displayed with decimal precision and detection limits configured for it in its parent Analysis Service

Samples can be revisited and results captured as they become available

Cascading Sample Statuses

Once all Analyses on the Sample have results submitted and were promoted to To be Verified,  The Sample follows suit, and is now ready for verification 

Import Subcontracted Results

Convince subcontracted labs to deliver results in this spreadsheet format and import them, saving time and making fewer transcription errors
