The Analyses Tab

Before diving deeper, and ignoring trivial setup items, the main workflow items and global defaults

Analyses tab

Please see Global Analysis Service Setup

  • Allow self-verification of results

By default, for ISO 17025 compliance, the same user is not allowed to capture and verify results

Small labs, and skeleton staff on night shift, work around this by enabling self-verification, if not temporarily. Full audit trail remains

  • Number of verifications

Before a given result is Verified. Some labs require more than one verification. This setting can be configured further per individual Analysis Service

  • Sample rejection - Off, unless required
  • Default number of analysis requests to add on the AR create form
  • Immediate Results Entry

On the Analysis tab, an Immediate Results Entry is available that, when enabled, allows users to capture a Sample's results immediately after registration, say the sample arrives with a number of field results

Sticker tab

Also see Receiving and labeling Samples

Decide when Sample labels should be printed, when their Analysis Requests are Created, or when the Samples are Received.

And which sticker templates to use and how many copies per print.

Configuring Verification

The number of required Verifications and the rules for multi Verification, are set on the Analuses tab in the Bika Setup

The number of Verifications can be refined by seting them up per Analysis Service
