Change log

New

Analysis categories - grouping Analyses by category throughout the system from initial requesting to invoices, results and management reports, etc.

Analysis results restrictions - specification of valid results entries, e.g. 'positive', 'negative' and 'indeterminable'. Where configured, any other entry is refused

Email and fax subject options. Standard Bika results reporting is lab centric, giving preference to the lab's Sample and Analysis Request IDs. These are often meaningless to clients - the system now allows this preference to be set per individual client

New instrument import formats for the Bartelt data collector, Foss WineScan Auto and FIAStar. The Bartelt data collector provides a hardware and communication framework to interface more than 120 serial instruments with Bika

Worksheet exports to instruments - users can now export instrument-specific worksheets to instruments capable of bi-directional interfacing, further improving turnaround and accuracy by eliminating potential transcription errors

PDF as results publication preference - emailed as attachment, formally laid out on lab's letter head

SMS results ready' notifications - Client Contacts with this preference enabled, receive SMS text notifications when their results are published

Result publication options synchronized and signatures added to emails. Results in email bodies, faxes and PDFs are now laid out exactly the same

Email batching of query results conforms to results publication formats. Ditto the above for emailed query results

IDServer batching of unique ID requests

Optimisation of worksheet searching on selection criteria

Extract tab added with extract for analysis services or profiles - used to synchronise look-up lists in spread sheets distributed to clients for bulk requesting of analyses

Batch update of analysis service prices. Save time by editing prices in a spreadsheet and upload all together.  Useful for periodic price reviews in labs with a long list of Analysis Services

German translation module added

Added a light query form which excludes analysis category and service

Batch size setting in analysis request lists - allows users to set list lengths

BikaMembers replaces UpfrontContacts
