Scheduling

Forms with the Density Test - Soil Nuclear Gauge

form setting will create a Pending Field Action if the density test requires a retest (Retest = Yes)

Added a new Work Item called Retest - Soil Density to be used to manage / schedule retests for DIY form density tests

Field

Activity - Added a new

Manage Density

Retests section to display density test form records where the test requires a retest, but it has not been retested yet

Quality Control

Activity - Search / Results - Added Field Activity Retest Results configuration where the user has the ability to

manage which fields display on the Manage Density Retest page in Field

There is no need to configure this setting at this time. This is work in development and the configurations can be used starting in the 2022.1 release in early 2022.

Work Items - Added Retest - Soil Density that will be used for retests of DIY soil density forms

LIMS

Testable Queue (Other Materials) - Added the ability for users to “Change Lab”

functionality / button

Receiving Lists - Modified for DIY samples: Specimen # has been changed to Specimen (Set), Test Age has been added, and Sample Type has been modified to display the name of the Sample Form and if present, the Sample Type will appear in parenthesis ( )

Hide Scheduling Prompt to

sample forms so the scheduling prompt will no longer appear when submitting a form by automatically

selecting

“Yes” or “No” to the scheduling prompt question based on the form setting

Determine if it makes sense to hide the scheduling prompt that displays after saving a sample record. If so, decide if the assumed answer to that prompt should be “Yes” or “No” and assign the Hide Scheduling Prompt form setting accordingly.

reference fields on a form in a validation message by using

placeholder variables

Determine if any validation messages could benefit from variable placeholders. Use field system names as the placeholder name inside brackets to configure (i.e. {{SystemName}})

forms so users can reference

the original failed density test

Added a Retest field to the Density Test - Soil Nuclear Gauge

forms so users can indicate if the test

requires a retest

Report Designer

Added the ability to use the {{SetNumber}}

placeholder for report descriptions to return the sample’s set number

Determine if any CGM sampling forms could benefit from having Set Number returned as a placeholder variable in the reports Description property. Configure the Description / Filename settings on the report design accordingly.
