Shipments section displays specimens that have not been assigned to a shipment as well as shipments that have not been sent. With the Biospecimen management system, you can log a specimen and immediately add it to a shipment, or log a specimen and add it to a shipment later.
The same concept applies to shipments. You can log a specimen, add it to a shipment, and immediately send the shipment, or you can wait and send the shipment later. Until you actually send the shipment, it is considered "not shipped."
For example, a CRA at a collecting site may normally log specimens throughout the day but wait until the end of the day to send the batch of specimens in a single shipment. This means that throughout the day, the shipment is "not shipped" – or waiting to be sent. At the end of the day, the CRA uses the Shipments screen to view and send that shipment
