When you collect specimens using the Specimen Requirement specified in CP, you won't be able to update the specimen type from the UI, since it's linked to Collection Protocol SR.
To correct these, we have 2 options.
Delete the incorrect specimen and re-create with the correct specimen type using specimen collection WF. In this case, the data for already entered for the specimen would not be retained, and the user needs to re-enter.
If a specimen already has information present, and you would like to retain it, then, you can export the details and re-create the specimen.
