VetView allows users to create accession templates for application when generating many accessions for the same patients and tests. Templates can be created with or without accession header information and can be applied at any point in the accession’s life-cycle up to finalization.  Use this tool to quickly build accessions for specimens that will all have the same test run on them, or to run repeat tests for a single patient over time. 

How do I create an accession template without header information?

From the Accession Screen, click the “New Accession” icon. This will bring up the empty accession header. In order to begin with a blank template, you will need to select the appropriate lab and save the accession with an empty header.  (Don't fill in the clinic, RDVM, etc.)

How do I create an Accession Template with header information?

Accession templates can also be created for frequent clients if you add the appropriate header information prior to clicking “create template.”  To avoid confusion, consider including the name of the submitting lab or RDVM in the template name.
