For customers using the “New…” item to add extra containers to be collected, a challenge exists if they are not specifying tests along with the containers. The system requires the user pick a container from a drop-down list, and prompts the user to confirm that no tests should be added. For those customers who want to just collect an extra container and specify the tests at a later time, this requires additional screen clicks to add the container. Several customers have implemented an extra container strategy that uses pseudo-tests to provide a faster way of adding containers. Rather than selecting a container from a drop-down, the user simply selects the extra container type in the lower-left box. This bypasses the prompt to confirm that no tests were selected and provides a much faster way of adding extra containers. Refer to the following Best Practices document for more information on Best Practices for Adding Containers without Tests.
