Chemical specifications in the wire frame model

Purpose

This module  enables the system to keep minimum and maximum allowed values for each analytical service offered, and an allowed percentage error, used to highlight and report on out of range values during data capturing

These values may differ between clients and sample types, and specifications are kept per analysis per sample type and per client

Theoretically: a 3 dimensional data cube where the min/max & error %  are looked up at every client – product - analysis intersection

Clients are allowed to modify their own parameters

During after data capturing, say on ARs or job cards, out of range values are shown in bold red against a pink background, and those out of range but still within the % error allowed are showed bold red against a light yellow back ground

1 specification maintained for BikaClient’s own specifications by the labmanager – also per sample type and analysis. On pages where results are shown, users have the option to switch between applying the lab’s or the client’s specifications: Lab members’ the lab’s by default, clients their own

When a new client is created, she inherits the lab’s set of specifications

A management report is included to report on the number analyses out of range and in the error % shoulder range per product per client for selected date ranges

Use case – creating and editing an Analysis specification

Role players client, labmanager

the role player navigates to the Analysis specification page. Lab members have to navigate to the client’s first for hers. for the lab’s itself, select off the main menu or set-up

only sample types for which specifications exist, are listed

she clicks on an existing specification to edit or [add new] to edit new one

if a spec for that client/product combination exists, its page opens, listing only the analyses and data for which the range data has been entered on its | view | tab

the values may be edited or more analyses added from a pick list on the | edit | tab

for a new specification select a sample type from a pick list. only sample types without specs are available for selection

the role player enter min/max values and  error % per analysis as required

she saves the spec

the saved values are then applied on all ARs for the specific client and sample type combinations as discussed in the AR and JC paragraphs to indicate out of range values and those in the allowed error %
even existing ARs? shouldn't this affect ARs created after saving? Phew, this one is for Patrick. Published ARs should not be altered in ANY way?

Use case – creating a specification for a client based on the lab’s

click the [apply lab defaults] button on the Analysis specification page

Use case – reporting on product ‘aberrations’
