Description
Use the Order Choice Lists page to view, create, or edit the format for the order choice lists on the Order Patient Samples and Order Choice Pick List pages. Then, when placing an order, the Order Patient Samples page displays the defined groups of order choices. These groups can include the order choices you use most frequently, personal favorites, and/or lists defined to include order choices for specific situations (e.g., "Cardiac" or "Oncology"). Some of the information in this page is set up by the Orchard Administrator when your account is established. You may only modify the information as described below.

Technical Manual
Order Choice List Settings
The program builds the Frequent list based on your settings in this page, and then automatically fills it with the order choices you order most often.
| Frequent | Displays a list of order choices that you order most often. |
|---|---|
| Number of order choices to display per page | Enter a number between one and 100 in the field. This field is required. If you enter 10, the program displays 10 order choices per page on the Order Choice Pick List accessed from the Order Patient Samples page. Note The program only displays one page of order choices on the My Frequent order choice list, so it will not display more order choices than it can fit on one page, even if you enter a larger number here. This field is required. |
| My Frequent | The list that contains your most frequently used order choices. |
| Name for "My Frequent" List | Enter a different name in the field if you wish to change the name of the list. This field is required. |
