EDMS Field can automatically receive sampling tasks from the EDMS module via email or FTP. To use this feature of the EDMS module, the network version must be installed and the EDMS Service running. In addition, the task can be imported manually from an XML file.

 

The tasks can only be created and edited in the EDMS module. EDMS Field is only able to view the tasks and add stations and samples to them.

 

These tasks can be displayed on a dashboard showing a list of tasks and a weekly calendar of tasks. Each task can contain one or more stations or samples. Stations are used to locate positions where multiple samples will be taken, normally for reoccurring events.

 

Sampling defaults and required lab analyses can be set in the task and then passed down automatically to stations and samples in the task.

 

Notifications can be sent throughout the work process via email, SMS (text message), or internal notification within the program. These notifications can only be setup in tasks. The following notifications are processed by EDMS field:

 

•Sample collected

•Sample shipped to lab

 

The Sample Required notification is processed and sent by the EDMS module at the same time as the task data is sent to EDMS Field.
