Update the LabTests.config file

To configure LNMT to display Lab Tests/with Units in the dropdown on the Admin (Lab eCRF) page or LNR page, you must download and modify the base LabTests.config file.

This file will have just the outer tags for <Tests>

<Tests>
	<Test name="">
		<Units>n/a</Units>
		<SpecimenTypes>n/a</SpecimenTypes>
	</Test>		
</Tests>

For example, when adding sodium and potassium with units (separated by comma), the file looks like this:

<Tests>
  <Test name="Sodium">
    <Units>mEq/L, mmol/L, mEq/dL, mg/dL, mm/L</Units>
         <SpecimenTypes>Blood, Plasma, Urine</SpecimenTypes>
  </Test>
  <Test name="Potassium">
    <Units>mEq/L, mmol/L, mm/L</Units>
         <SpecimenTypes>N/A</SpecimenTypes>
  </Test>
</Tests>

To update the LabTest.config file:

1. Log in to Oracle InForm.
2. Select the LNMT tab.
3. Select Admin (Configuration).
4. Click the LabTest.config link to download the base file.
5. Modify the LabTest.config file as needed.
6. Under Upload Lab Tests/Units configuration (LabTests.config) to server, click Browse.
7. Select the updated LabTests.config file from your computer and click Upload.

The base LabTest.config file will be then replaced by the new version.
