Guide for generating labels

Sample Labels

The typical size of the sample label is 25mm x 40mm.

Sample Label Example

Here is the mapping between label elements and data fields (assuming x is Sale object and i is the index of a given sample):

1. Laboratory name (setting);

2. Barcode of the sample, CODE-128 (x.samples[i].barcode);

3. Barcode and Visit as human readible characters, SSSS / VVVV where SSSS is sample barcode and VVVV is visit number (x.samples[i].barcode + x.id);

4. Patient name (x.patient.givenName + x.patient.familyName)

5. Date and time the sample is taken, if null - date and time of Visit registration (x.samples[i].taken or x.registered), preferred format is YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm;

6. List of processing points (codes), the sample should go through to fulfill ordered examinations (x.samples[i].processingPoints);

7. Sample type code (x.samples[i].sampleType.code).

Real Lie Example

Below is a real-life example of sample labels printed by LIS iLab on printer Datecs LP-50.
