To use the barcode to confirm sample identity
If a packing slip has been generated for a submission, then two options are available for using the barcode to validate that the correct patient/sample combination was submitted to the customer portal and to confirm sample identity when you are reviewing a sample in Geneticist Assistant:
• On the Submission tab, click Verify Barcode, and then use a barcode scanner to scan the barcode on the physical packing slip.
• On the Submission tab, click Verify Barcode, and then enter the barcode number that is displayed on the packing slip in the field. If the barcode number that you enter matches the barcode number for the submission, then “Match” is displayed in green above the Verify Barcode number field.
