Changing the Lab

When you log into eLabs, you automatically access your default lab. The site ID of that lab appears in the bar at the top of the page below the menus. (If the facility name appears but not the Facility list, both the site ID and name of the lab appear.)

If you can access more than one lab, you can switch to a different one at any time. This affects such things as which clients you can work with, and which orders appear in the hold list.

You can change the lab using either the Lab list at the top of any page or the Change Lab page. If you use the Change Lab page, you can also specify that the new lab should be your default lab.

Note: During order entry, you can place an order with a different lab without changing the lab for the rest of the application.
