Starting November 2023, there is a new functionality available in the NCI BioMS Graphical User Interface (GUI) to search, view and download a Report of Expected Mandatory Specimens for a user’s authorized collection site(s).
In order to use this function, click on the newly available Expected Specimens option under SEARCH menu in BioMS GUI as shown below. The objective of this new feature is to allow CRAs to proactively review the upcoming mandatory specimen collections and plan for it in advance. This will help to prevent specimens getting into the Overdue Specimens list.
The following page will be displayed allowing the user to search for ALL Expected and Mandatory Specimens (Default option with nothing entered in the search box). There are two options to search and filter: Expected Specimens for a Patient ID or Expected Specimens for a Study. Select the option and then Click search button which will display the results for the search. If you select a Patient or Study, type in Patient ID or Study ID, then select the same from the search bar as it appears and then click search. This is similar to how search function works in BioMS GUI.
