Description
The Out-of-Range QC Result Documentation pop-up allows you to document out-of-range QC before they are approved.
Access
- TaskCenter > Manage Testing > Work in Progress > Review Results pop-up > Document Out-of-Range QC button
- TaskCenter > Manage Testing > Work in Progress > Advanced Review Results pop-up > Document Out-of-Range QC button
- The Out-of-Range QC Result Documentation pop-up will also display if a user selects the Approve button on Review Results or Advanced Review Results for out-of-range QC without first documenting and when the testing facility is configured to require documentation for out-of-range QC.
The Document Out-of-Range QC button will display only if the setting Enforce documentation of out-of-range QC results prior to approval is enabled at AdminCenter > System Setup > Testing Facilities.
You must have the lab-level role right Resolve Quality Control Violations to document QC out-of-range errors.
