Hi all,
I’m working with a Collection Protocol that has multiple predefined specimen requirements for an Endoscopy event (e.g. oesophagus, gastric body, duodenum, ileum, caecum, ascending colon, transverse colon, etc.). Each primary specimen also has derived specimens (organoids, aliquots, frozen tissue).
When I open the collection event within a participant record, all specimen requirements are displayed by default, including those that have not been collected. In addition, all specimens appear expanded, which makes the interface quite cluttered and difficult to navigate when only a subset are actually collected.
I’ve tried adjusting CP settings (e.g. Show Primary Specimens and Create Pending Specimens on Visit Collection), but the behaviour remains the same.
Due to limitations with our lookup lists (anatomical sites not yet configured), we’ve temporarily modelled each biopsy site as a separate specimen requirement. This works functionally but creates a usability issue in the event screen.
My question is whether there is a way to hide or filter out uncollected (pending) specimens, or have specimens collapsed by default in this view. Alternatively, are there any recommended best practices for managing usability when working with a large number of specimen requirements?
Thanks in advance!
