Go to 'Dropdown Manager'. Select 'Specimen Type' Click on 'Add' Enter the Class name in ‘Dropdown value', leaving 'Parent Dropdown’ blank. Add the mandatory properties: ‘quantity_unit', ‘concentration_unit’, and ’container_color_coding’:
 Once the new class is added, this can be used as a ‘Parent Dropdown' for new specimen types.
Below are the specimen-type properties Attribute | Property Name | Property Value | Description |
|---|
Specimen Type | quantity_unit | Quantity units for the specific specimen type | Used to display the units on the specimen pages. Value can only be plain text. If special characters like symbols need to be used, then it needs to be specified under quantity_display_unit. E.g., μg/m3 By default, the units are set at class level which will apply to all types under it: Tissue: gm Fluid: ml Molecular: µg Cell: count
| Specimen Type | concentration_unit | Concentration unit for the specific specimen type | For example - microgram/ml | Specimen Type | container_color_coding | The color representing the specimen class in the container location view | For example - background=red,opacity=0.5 |

From v11.0 onwards, you can create/ update a list of the units you want to use in the system (Extras → Dropdown Manager → Specimen Unit). This list can be used to define specimen quantity/concentration units for specimen class/ type on system/CP level.
