Linking CP with

DP
1. In order to distribute samples directly using a unique distribution protocol, super admin needs to create that distribution protocol using 'Distribution Protocol'.
2. Once data has been entered and DP has been created, click on collection protocol of interest to view details. Select 'Settings' and click on ' Distribution Protocol Settings'.
3. Click on '+ Add Distribution Protocol' and select DP of interest from the drop-down menu to be added to the CP. User can add multiple DPs at this level by clicking on '+Distribution Protocol'.
4. Once the CP-DP has been set up, user should be able to distribute samples by selecting that DP under the settings.NOTE: If the DP being selected at the time of distribution does not match the CP-DP set up, system validates CP-DP settings and throws an error to prevent the system from distributing samples.
Validation during distribution
During validation the system should check if the specimens distributed as based on the CP-DP linkage. E.g. if specimen S1 belongs to CP1 and if it is linked to DP1, then it cant be distributed to any DP other than DP1.
This will happen disregard of what method the user applies to select and distribute specimens including, direct distribution or query interface. To avoid this, the DP that specimens are being distributed to should be same as the one selected under the CP settings.e.g. If the user has selected DP1 under CP1 settings, the system will not allow the user to distribute CP1 samples under DP2.
