Priority Samples Page The Atellica Process Manager allows the operator to monitor zone-specific in-process STAT samples, any samples that have an associated automation error, and any routine sample that has triggered a turnaround time (TAT) or On-Time STAT display rule. Samples that enter an Overdue (red alert) or At Risk state (yellow alert) also display. Select the Start button below to learn more about the Priority Samples page features. Start Priority Samples Page Baselayer The Atellica Process Manager allows the user to monitor sample status on the Priority Samples page. At this tab, the operator can monitor zone-specific in-process STAT samples, any samples that have an associated automation error, and any routine sample that has triggered a turnaround time (TAT) rule. Samples that enter an Overdue (red alert) or At Risk state (yellow alert) also display. Select the Start button below to learn more about the Priority Samples page features. Layer 1 Priority samples can be filtered by the following options: problem samples if the sample is on track and is associated with automation errors. Turnaround test time violations which displays a sample with at least one test matching the TAT rule and is at risk or overdue for this zone. Not loaded test violations which displays the sample after a time limit violation which has not been loaded on a system or in a zone with a matching rule. On-time stat samples which displays samples with at least one STAT test that is on-time and as matched any of the following rules defined for the zone. On-time STAT rule. TAT rule. Not loaded rule. All tests in sample which displays all of the tests in a sample with at least one matching test matching a rule for the zone. Finally, only tests matching a rule for the zone. This displays tests that have a violation matching a rule defined for the zone and which meet the filter criteria. Layer 2 To select the filters you wish to apply to the priority samples tab, first select the define filter tab. Select the specific samples in the zone to include. Next, select one option in the tests to include in the filter. When finished, select OK. Layer 3 Select the arrow next to the appropriate sample.
