ASAP pathology request forms
A thought on the automatic ASAP request forms generated when they are billed to a client's file - they currently automatically print off with patient's name/details and a newly assigned investigation number, however it would be great if they would automatically tick the profile requested/charged (handy for nurses then corroborating asap charges with client charges) and the history could be uploaded. Any brainwaves or useful hints on how to manage or correct this?
Re: ASAP pathology request forms
We don't support this at present, but it would make a good project OpenVPMS 1.7.
It could be supported by:
1. Extending Investigation Types so that they can have tests linked to them.
2. When a product is billed with a linked Investigation Type, any tests are added to the Investigation.
3. Tests can be added to or removed from the Investigation.
The forms would use a new function (something like "investigation:isSelected('some test')") to determine if a particular test has been selected or not.

Another option would be to enable the investigation form to show the linked Product, that generated the investigation in the first place. I atleast have a charge setup for each test I send internally or externally.
I also have the external code added to that products identifications, and the printed name of the product matches the name at the lab
Path requests forms for vets are overly complicated BECAUSE we need to tick box's. The form could be reduced to the pet/owner/vet detail section, then below it a LAB CODE and Test description section. And maybe you would still need a samples submitted section.
However adding extra tests to the same investigation would require changes
