To manage supplies inventory in OpenSpecimen, super admins can set up supplies with details of the site, collection protocol, procurement date, expiry date etc. Each supply can be restricted to specific sites and/or collection protocols to make sure that the supply is utilized within that site and/or CP. Two types of supplies can be created based on the supply types.
...
- Click supply type with barcoded items from supplies page
- Click create
- Enter necessary details and click create
The items can be added to the supply by scanning the barcode for each item both during and after creating the supply. When visits or specimens are collected with matching barcodes, the supply is automatically marked as utilized.
| Info |
|---|
If CP restriction is not set at the supply type level, the user can set restrictions while creating a supply. Once the site is selected, a field for collection protocol is displayed. The user can add multiple CPs from the corresponding site. |
Create supplies without bar-coded items (TBD)
Edit and Clone Supplies
It is always possible to edit supplies. Changes can be made to all the fields while editing supplies. However, if CP restriction has been put at the supply type level, it is not possible to edit CP for the supplies.
