Specimen Storage Tooltip and Storage Mismatch Pop-up Enhancements

What’s New

• Tooltips now display the specimen storage type when hovering over any added lab order tile.
• A new validation pop-up appears when the user selects an additional order whose storage type differs from or is unspecified compared to existing added orders.
• Tooltip formatting matches the style used in the order search results section.
• A new validation pop-up appears when the user selects an additional order whose storage type differs from or is unspecified compared to existing added orders.
• The pop-up lists the storage type of the selected order and the storage type(s) of existing orders, using “Unspecified” when no value exists.
• When multiple orders are already added, the pop-up lists the first order name followed by “+n orders” to indicate additional items.
• The pop-up instructs users that orders with different or unspecified storage types must be placed on separate requisitions.

How It Works

• Add one or more lab orders from Clinical or Provider Note workflows.
• Hover over any added order tile to view the specimen storage type tooltip.
• If adding another order with a different or unspecified specimen storage type, the system triggers a pop-up alert.
• The pop-up identifies:
  – The selected order’s storage type
  – The existing order’s storage type (and “+n orders” if applicable)
• Users must separate orders with mismatched storage requirements into different requisitions.

Benefits

• Ensures proper handling of lab specimens by preventing incompatible orders from being combined.
• Provides instant visibility into storage requirements via tile-level tooltips.
• Reduces submission errors and clarifies when separate requisitions are required.
• Improves user awareness and consistency across lab order workflows.
