Tests ordered in Vet Scan
When tests are ordered directly from the VetScan machine, the results will return as orphaned within the system i.e. a result with no client or patient assigned to it.
To correctly assign them, locate the orphaned test, select "Edit," and manually enter the appropriate client and patient details.
Once this information has been added, ensure you save the changes to properly link the test results to the correct record.
