Resolving an Ambiguous Master Lot
When validating Upper Bay Inventory, “Master Lot is Ambiguous” messages may appear in the
Load Assay Reagents
window. This occurs when a reagent is part of more than one Master Lot,
and therefore the system does not know which Master Lot to track the reagent with. The
operator must identify the correct Master Lot in order to accurately track on-board reagent
stability.
To resolve an ambiguous Master Lot:
1. Click the message line to resolve the Master Lot. A “Resolve Ambiguous Master Lot”
message appears.
2. Scan in the correct Master Lot for that quadrant, then click OK.
3. Repeat for any other quadrants that the system identified as having an ambiguous Master
Lot.
4. Click Inventory in the Load Assay Reagents
window to continue with Upper Bay
Inventory.
Note: For additional information on resolving ambiguous Master Lots, contact Novartis
Diagnostics Technical Service.
