In the Test Requests list in EMIS Web, you'll notice various icons that help you manage test tasks effectively:

  • Overdue Date in Red: The date displayed in red in the Sample Due column indicates that a test request is overdue. This visual cue helps quickly identify tasks requiring immediate attention, allowing for efficient prioritisation and actioning.
  • Note Icon: A note icon beside a test request signals that additional information is attached. Clicking this icon will reveal the note, providing context or special instructions, improving communication and task comprehension.
  • User Icon: A blue user icon indicates the test request's owner is someone other than the logged-on user. Hover over the icon to see the owner's name. This feature supports clear task ownership and transfers.
Using these icons in EMIS Web's Test Requests list enhances workflow efficiency and clarity, ensuring tasks are actioned promptly and accurately.
