Adding and Editing Collection Methods

  1. Click Add on the Collection Method list page to add a collection method via the Collection Method details page.
  2. Enter the name of the collection method in the Collection Method field located in the Collection Method Details section. This field is required. Select the Active checkbox to make the collection method have an active status.
  3. Enter text in to the Reflex Order Choice search-as-you-type field to have the ability to reflex an order choice when collecting samples based on collection method. This applies to all sample collection features. This search-as-you-type field displays active order choices that have the Auto-approve upon collection setting enabled. Whenever a sample is collected, Copia will select the sample's collection method for the Reflex Order Choice setting. If a collection method is set and it has a Reflex Order Choice, Copia will add that order choice to the order. This reflexed order choice will combine to the sample using the collection method that added it, regardless of the order choice's sample collection information.
  4. Select the Orchard Collect Collection Method checkbox to limit which collection methods are sent to Orchard Collect.
  5. Click the name of any collection method on the Collection Method list page to edit collection method detail information.
  6. Click Save to add the collection method to the Collection Method list page. The new collection method will appear in the collection method table list. Click < Back to List to return to the Collection Method list page without adding an collection method.
