QESTLab Preferred Laboratory for List Fields
Project: QESTLab_2.9 Customer Core Developments AUCOF
Product: QESTLab
Author: Benny.Thomas
Version: 1.0
Business Requirements
Overview
Currently when using a data filter to search for Samples or Documents users need to scroll through a considerably large list (for Client and Project lists in particular) to select the required items. This has been identified as being inconvenient. Existing functionality exists to reduce the length of similar fields based on Preferred Laboratories. It is suggested that this "Preferred Laboratory" functionality be extended to data filters as well.
Detailed Requirements
Preferred Laboratory: Data Filters
No change will be made to the way the option for "Preferred Laboratory" is set. The functionality being extended to Data Filters will use the existing option in the QEST Administrator Console which is accessed via QESTLab->Configuration->Lists
Once the option is set for a particular list then the Preferred Laboratory button will be accessible for that particular list in the data filters section.
Functional Specification
Preferred Lab
The Data Filters section of the QESTLab screen will now include the "Preferred Laboratory" button for those lists which have the "Preferred Laboratory" option checked.
Configuration
Operation
