Adding Workorders

Top ../images/arwup.gif (846 bytes)

These are Workorders you can create outside of a Plan. They are stand-alone instruction sets for the purpose of assigning duties to personnel who are participating in a Study.

Begin from the Workorder List Page. This lists all Workorders created outside of any Plan, as well as any Workorders created in Plans. In the example below, WO 00006 was created outside of a Plan (note the absence of Time Point and Condition information). Others are created in a Plan Condition.

To create a Workorder outside of a Plan, click Add. Supply the information in the Add Workorder Page:

Field Description
Workorder Automatically generated identifier of the Workorder.
Description Enter a text description if desired.
Label Textual description that can be set if the task is configured to do so. The SamplePull task always populates this label column with "Pull". This is one of three columns that provide ancillary information about the Workorder, the other two being workorderdesc (text description) and workordertype. The workordertype contains the Reference Value defining what kind of Workorder this is.
Type Choose the type of activity to be performed.
Status Choose the Status you want to appear on the Workorder List Page:
Scheduled for activities pending completion.
Completed for activities that have been completed.
Cancelled for activities that you wish to cancel.
Pending for activities that you wish to keep on hold.
Priority Choose the Priority based on requirements.
Due Date Choose the date and time the Workorder is due for execution.
Early Grace Period The duration a sample may be pulled early. If left blank each, Early or late, will default to the other.
Late Grace Period The duration a sample may be pulled late. If left blank each, Early or late, will default to the other.
Grace Period Unit Unit of measure associated with the period.
Window Start
Date

Window End Date
Displays in the Edit Workorder page upon Saving the Workorder (Return to List, select the Workorder and click Edit).

This is the total time frame within which the task needs to be executed. If the user fails to do so then an incident is recorded. The dates are automatically inserted by the system based on the Early and Late grace periods.

For example:

Task due date = 1 Jan 10:15
Early Grace period = 2 days
Late Grace period = 10 days
Window start date = 30 Dec 10:15
Window end date = 11 Jan 10:15

Note: If either the Early or Late fields are blank the grace period will default to the other (+/- 2 days for example). If both are blank no grace period is defined.

Deviation Flag Flag to record deviation, if an incident is recorded against a Workorder.
Deviation Template Template based on which the deviation is recorded.

Button Description
PreComplete When the property option "Deferred Sample Creation" is selected for Advanced Pull Samples task while creating a Plan, the Sample creation is delayed until the corresponding Workorder is complete (signifying that the Sample is pulled). Thus the Sample ID is generated only after the Workorder is complete.

However, there are times when Sample labels and Sample pull list need to be printed, containing the Sample ID. In this scenario the Workorder needs to be pre-completed, to generate the Sample ID, if it is not generated previously.

Print Pull List Printed list enumerates the entire list of Sample pull tasks associated to Workorder. The list displays the date/time when the tasks are due.

This allows the personnel to know the daily list of tasks to execute for the Workorder.

Print Label As Sample is pulled for a test, it is kept in a container. The container needs labeling for future reference, which generally includes Study ID, condition, timepoint and Sample ID.

To print label Sample ID is needed. Therefore, first generate the Sample ID using "Pre Complete" button, if it is not previously generated.

FieldDescription
PrinterPrinter through which the label is printed.
Label MethodMethod that specifies the fields needed for the printed label.

A .dd file is generated by the system that contains all the label information.

Mark as Complete After all tasks are executed for a Workorder, the Workorder is ready for completion.

The Complete Workorder maintenance page displays Workorder details.

It has been determined that an exception is thrown when you try to mark a Workorder as "Complete" if the WorkOrderType is a custom Reference Value. To avoid this, create a completion page for the custom Reference Value.

The exception is typically accompanied by one of these helpful messages:

Exception (javax.servlet.ServletException): Failed to get page and/or properties for WOInterval TestComplete. Error stack: [Failed to create result set: SQLException: ORA-20410: ORA-20408: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small ORA-06512: at "S2SAP.LV_RSET", line 728 ORA-06512: at line 1 for sdcid: WebPage, keyid1list: WOInterval TestComplete, keyid2list: null, keyid3list: null, Could not create an rset for the webpage]
 or...
Exception (javax.servlet.ServletException): Failed to get page and/or properties for WOIntComplete. Error stack: [Page access denied - insufficient roles or page does not exists: WOIntComplete]
