LINK SERVICES UPDATE
This v7.127 cumulative upate is packed with new features that may change the way you think about your current workflows and opportunities for automation. The Test Request Form (TRF) and final test report PDF generation were reengineered to enable full automation of Test Requests from start-to-finish. In wastewater testing, for example, the ZDHC Gateway integration auto-generates Test Requests with assigned test packages, fills in the tests results for all sample locations (complete with third-party lab report PDF) and displays the analytics on the dashboard. Through PLM integration (or using Schedule Import or Certificate Import) and eFiling integration, product safety certificates can be mass-generated and your product, supplier and certifications automatically registered with the CPSC/CBP. If you update a product of the same style and color, the updated certificate will supersede the prior version and flip its status to archived.
We already provided an in-app announcement on the change made to the layout of the Test Package selection dialog. What you probably didn’t know is that you can now configure your Test Plan to allow for multiple selections at one time, instead of using the blue Select and Add Another button. This could be a game-changer for many brands, greatly reducing the time to create a Test Request. Please refer to the release notes for details.
Enhancements to the Test Plan template allow you to specify the sort order of Test Groups and Parameters to align with pre-printed data collection worksheets or LIMS reports used by your labs. If the lab performs tests on both chemical and safety parameters, for example, the sort order allows you to segregate them on the results screen and final report, rather than relying on the default alpha sort order.
When you update your Test Plan, you can now import all spreadsheets at one time and the banner message displays worksheet import progress. Additional validation checks help eliminate configuration errors and the import process speed was improved three-fold.
Make sure to read the full release notes to learn about the new Limit Override, ability to reassign users to another organization, and many other features to help you improve product compliance and integrity.
