The Labs Worksheet screen allows a user performing a batch of accessions to search for their assigned work, create a spreadsheet style form for data entry, and perform the tests and data entry all at once. In Version 3.1 of VetView, this screen was merged with the List Search screen that was previously only available in Navigation. We have also added support for specimen entry in a 96 well plate layout. List SearchAt the top of this screen is a section to search for existing Worksheets. Each parameter can be used in conjunction with others, to help you narrow down search results to only those you want to see.
Search ResultsThe matching Worksheets will display in the Search Results window below. Click on a Worksheet to load the accessions associated with it in the window to the right. On this screen, you can also create a new worksheet, open an existing worksheet by searching for it by keyword, mark the worksheet complete, or delete it if no work was performed against it.
Create WorksheetTo create a new worksheet from scratch, click on the Create Worksheet button. Enter the lab for the worksheet, and give it a name, then click on the Save button. Additional dialogue entries will become available: A data entry field to scan the barcode number for the Accession, and a test filter to choose which tests will be performed on these specimens.
SpreadsheetA Spreadsheet list is intended for tests that are performed all at once in a batch. This layout will load all the tests into a single spreadsheet style screen. Alternatively, you can load the tests into a 96 well plate layout for fast specimen scanning using a barcode scanner. This layout also allows you to export the CSV file to a PCR machine, and then import the results back for automatic data entry. Working ListA Working List style is intended for tests that must be performed consecutively, such as a bacterial culture or histology slide. This layout will load all the lists into screen where they can be opened one at a time and processed at a workstation.
Test Information - Spreadsheet LayoutOnce a worksheet has been created or opened, the tests will display in this section. There are two halves to the Test Information list: The left hand columns can be hidden but cannot be edited, as they contain the accession information. The right hand columns cannot be hidden but can be edited, so long as the tests are not in a finalized status. Back to SearchThis will return you to the Worksheet Search screen. It should remember your previous search parameters. Save buttonApplies any results and status changes in the tests to the accessions. If all accessions become finalized, the Worksheet should auto update to Completed status. Edit MenuIn VetView 3.1 many of the menu options have been placed under the Edit Menu to keep the toolbar from becoming too cluttered. Create WorksheetTo create a new blank worksheet on this screen, click the Create Worksheet option. The new Create Worksheet dialog box will open. Open WorksheetTo open a different existing worksheet, click on this button. A mini search window for worksheets will open. Mark Worksheet CompleteThis option will change the status of the worksheet from Working to Complete. If all accessions on a worksheet are in Finalized status, it will also mark as complete, but you can use this option if certain accessions are in a different status and the worksheet may not be marked complete automatically as a result. Delete WorksheetIf a worksheet was created in error, this will delete the worksheet. Since an Accession and a Test can be associated with multiple worksheets, you can safely delete a worksheet without impacting the linked accessions. Add Test From Barcode - Specimen ListTo add one or more new tests from a barcode, click on Add Test from Barcode. This will open the new Specimen List Screen. Ensure your cursor is in the Specimen ID box, and start scanning. VetView will automatically find the associated test and accession, and add it to the list. Open Plate LayoutImport from CSVThis option, available in VetView 1.7.10 and 2.0.5, allows you to import the results from an external machine that does not have an electronic interface that can speak to the API but can only release results onto a USB drive. You will need to select the correct test, manually match the columns on the CSV to the output columns on the test, and then Upload. You can choose to create a new worksheet, or imported the results to an already opened worksheet. All results imported in this manner must already have an accession associated with them, or else the import process will fail. This process only works with a limited number of external testing devices that do not have the ability to interface with the VetView API. Please contact Jeff Duke for any questions about this import process. Print MenuThis button opens up a PDF version of the worksheet to allow you to print and then process the list on paper or cross check it against the samples in a machine that is not near your computer. If there are any custom Local Reports, they can appear in this menu as well. Test MenuThis menu contains the options to change the status of the tests on the Worksheet. Finalize All TestsThe Finalize button has options to finalize all the tests in the worksheet. If this also sets all tests on each Accession to Finalized, depending on the test settings, this should automatically Finalize the accessions and mark the Worksheet complete. Finalize SelectedThis sets the selected tests to finalize. Use this option if some tests will need to be cancelled or run a second time. Set All Results to PreliminaryThe Preliminary button has options to set all results to preliminary. This option does not set Accessions to Finalized status. Set Selected Results to PreliminaryThis option will set certain results to preliminary, and leave the others in Working status. Use this option if certain tests need to be verified or need additional review. Specimen MenuThis menu allows you to change the location of all specimens, or only certain specimens, if your lab utilizes Specimen Tracking. Select the option and then choose the new Specimen Location from the menu. Then click on Save to apply the changes. Plate LayoutFor spreadsheets intended to be used with a batch PCR machine, VetView 3.1 and later supports a 96 well plate layout. Click on the Open Plate Layout button to change to this view. Image Added The spreadsheet view will transform into a plate layout, with columns 1-12 and rows A-H labeled on the screen. Click on a cell to scan a specimen barcode, or to set it as a positive or negative control. For more information, please see: How To Create a Batch Worksheet for a 96 Well PCR Test (3.1) Image Added
