October Updates

Just to mention a couple of updates we’ve made to Achiever. These are now active on the Live environment and we hope to refresh the Training environment very soon.

Creating a new Donor/Participant within a Collection

When creating multiple new donor records it can be laborious linking them to the same collection each time. Now you can avoid that step of the process by creating the Donor/Participant records from within a Collection. Simply follow the ‘Insert New Donor/Participant’ workflow from the Collection’s Participant grid. You will be asked to search for existing records as usual, before entering informed consent details – but you won’t have to select the collection.

Using grid/chessboard notation when selecting a storage place

Some teams prefer to use the grid-style ‘A1’ notation when referring to the position of a sample within a storage sub location. Now, when you follow the check-in workflows, the position picklist will display both the numerical place as well as the grid notation for the best of both worlds.
