Overview
This flow describes how to discard a specimen in MANSOQ and record the reason for the discard.
Pre-requisites
- You collected the specimen, and the specimen card shows on the service request page.
- You have the permissions listed below.
Permissions
| Permission | Access |
|---|---|
| Can Create Specimen on Facility | Lets you discard a specimen at the facility. Facility Admin, Admin, Doctor, and Nurse have this permission. |
Steps
1. Open the specimen card menu
Go to the service request page. Find the card of the specimen that you discard. Open the menu on the specimen card.
2. Select Discard
Select Discard in the menu. MANSOQ opens a confirmation dialog. The dialog asks for the reason for the discard.
3. Select the reason and confirm
Select one of these reasons:
| Reason | What it records |
|---|---|
| Unavailable | The specimen is not available. |
| Unsatisfactory | The specimen does not meet the quality requirements. |
| Entered in Error | A user created the specimen by mistake. |
Confirm the dialog. MANSOQ sets the status of the specimen to the reason that you select.
Note: The three reason labels in this dialog show in English only. The current build does not translate them to other languages.
Note: A discard is final. A discarded specimen does not return to the Available status.
Expected Outcome
- MANSOQ shows the specimen with the status that matches the reason that you select.
- The specimen stays discarded, and you cannot return it to the Available status.
