Setting Up Kits

The Kits module allows users to track the shipment and receipt of kits to kit study collection centers. The Kits module is a multi-tabbed manager with a variety of options for tracking kit data. Users are able to track the available kits, available kit supplies to be placed in kits, and the specimens collected using a kit. Through the Kits module, users are also able to create templates for outlining the suggested contents of a kit, record information about kit study collection centers, create kit inventory item data, and monitor the status of kits. Users can receive kits via the Incoming Shipments editor. Users must have permission to access this module.

The Kits manager has 4 sub-managers – Inventory, Templates, Centers and Supplies. Kits can be created and are listed on the Inventory tab. Kit templates are managed on the Templates tab, Kit Centers on the Centers tab and Kit Supplies on the Supplies tab.
