Equipment Status

A piece of equipment's status can be used to track whether equipment in your equipment inventory is in service, temporarily out of service, or permanently out of service.

StatusDescription
Active
  • In service.
  • If you have your Lab test forms sourcing your equipment inventory, only equipment that is in an Active status will be available to select on a new test record.
Inactive
  • Temporarily out of service.

  • If you have your Lab test forms sourcing your equipment inventory, equipment that is in an inactive status will NOT be available to select on a new test record.

Deleted
  • Permanently out of service.

  • Like the inactive status, if you have your Lab test forms sourcing your equipment inventory, equipment that is in a deleted status will NOT be available to select on a new test record. Deleted is just another way to differentiate equipment that is out of service, so our recommendation would be to use deleted when equipment is removed from service permanently/discarded.


Equipment Calibration

If a piece of equipment is calibrated, you enter the calibration events by clicking the Add Equipment Calibration button.
