Book in a Job

Now that we have created a new job document on the Main Form, we need to save it in LabManager as a job.

Choose the 'Pre Book job' action from the Action Bar...

•	Pre Book job saves the job in a pre-booked state for the lab to review. Once the lab has reviewed the job, and made any adjustments, they will book it in. You will see the job's status change to "Booked In". This is the usual status of a job that is currently being worked on in the lab.

•	Delete job will, after getting you to confirm the action, remove the job from the database.

After choosing the Pre Book action, you'll be prompted to select which documents you wish to print at this stage, so you could print off a Delivery Label if you wish - just select it from the list and send it to your printer or the preview window.

After booking in, if your job is not on the Main Form, click the 'Last Job' navigation button, or see Sear ching for Jobs and Customers .

You'll notice the 'State' at the top right corner has now changed to read 'Booked in'.

Suppose we wish to make a change to the job now...

Use the Action menu or the Edit Job button on the Action bar to edit the job.

Change some text in the PRESCRIPTION, or add another product.

Book the job back in as pre-booked. (yes we're testing you here!)
