Purpose

The lab work queues are used to manage the progression of concrete / grout / mortar specimens through a general lab workflow through the use of various queues.

ButtonFunction
Modify Test Date
  • Changes the test date (and test age) for marked specimens

To Review
  • After lab results are entered and saved in the To Test Queue, the specimen will automatically move here.
  • For this queue, you can edit and approve test results entered.
  • To change test results, select the test and click Edit Results
  • For Cast Cylinders and Beam specimens, once approved the specimen will move to the Analyzed work queue and lab results are returned to Quality Control and Dashboard
  • For Density Test specimens, if testing is complete, the specimen will move to the Analyzed work queue and lab results are returned to Quality Control and Dashboard.
    However, if future testing must be performed on the Density Test specimen, it will move to the Testable work queue.


Analyzed
  • Specimen record will automatically move to the Analyzed queue after test data has been entered and approve
  • Once the Specimen is in the Analyzed queue, lab testing is considered finished.
  • Test results for Specimens in the Analyzed queue will now display in Quality Control for review and reporting by the project manager. 
  • Test results can be edited from this queue click Edit Results.

Enter / Edit Results Grid Navigation

When entering lab results data, the Tab key can be used to navigate right / left in the data grid. The up / down arrows can be used to navigate vertically in a column. 

 

Lab Filters


Across the top of Lab Work Queues are several filter choices that allow you to refine the data returned within each Work Queue.

Difference in Test Age / Test Date in Lab and Quality Control

After a specimen is checked into Lab, the specimen Test Date / Test Age can be updated in Lab.  You will not see this updated Test Date / Test Age in MetaField Quality Control until after a specimen status is updated to Analyzed in Lab.   

Analyzed Lab Status

Analyzed marks the last status of a specimen in Lab. However, in MetaField a specimen status can be changed from Analyzed to Review or Complete. This change of status in MetaField is not reflected in Lab.
