Mark Reports as Read or Unread

LabOnline marks new reports that you have not yet been viewed as "unread." When you view, download, or print a report, LabOnline automatically marks it as "read." You can change the status for one or more reports at once using the Mark as Read and Mark as Unread buttons.

The Mark as Read/Mark as Unread options are available from the following features:

  • Workorders
  • Samples
  • Patients
  • Final Reports
  • Other Reports

Note: Because LabOnline is customizable based on laboratory needs, some of the options referenced in the steps and images below may not be available or may be named differently. Direct any questions to your laboratory.

To change the status of one or more reports, complete the following steps:

  1. Select the row or rows in the grid containing the reports whose status you want to change.
    To select multiple rows, select a row, press Shift or Ctrl, and select additional rows using either your mouse or arrow keys.

  2. Click Mark as Read or Mark as Unread.

    If you select a row whose report status already matches the button you clicked, its status remains.

    Note: Unread reports are indicated by bold text on the row.
