Using workorders
Using host computer workorders
1. Create the workorders at your host computer.
Each patient sample must have a workorder that contains a sample number and at least one
test request.
NOTE: Stop here if you do not want to download workorders manually from the host
computer before operation. Instead, use the Automatic item select feature in the
Automatic transfer area on the Online Settings window.
2. Download workorders to the
chemistry system:
a. At the Menu Panel, select
Request, then select Order Entry.
b. Select
Host request.
c. In the Entry format area, select the means for identifying the first workorder in
step 2e.
d. In the Last no. entry format area, select the means for identifying the last
workorder in step 2f.
e. In the Start no. box, identify the first workorder you want downloaded.
