| Case ID Override | Enter a value in the field to use as the Case ID. If this field is left blank, the Case ID will be generated upon save as normal. This field will display only for AP order choices if the Order Choice Type associated with the order choice has the setting Allow AP Case ID to be edited manually enabled. If you're manually entering a Case ID here, the system checks for duplicate IDs and will display an error message if it finds a Case ID that matches the one you enter. |

If multiple order choices requiring specimen part information are added simultaneously, selecting this button skips the current order choice and moves to the next one requiring specimen part information.

Once the Specimen Part Details pop-up has been saved and order choices have been properly created, the new Cancel button cannot remove them. |
