How to Edit a COVID-19 Patient Report

This article describes what is editable on an existing Ovation-generated SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 patient report, and where to make those edits.

A patient report is considered a COVID-19 report if it uses the following value for remote_function_name: generic_covid19ReportTemplateV3

The remote_function_name can be determined by going to the applicable Project > Settings tab > select applicable requisition template > Reports. Look to see what value is set for remote_function_name in the Report Configuration.

Where to Make Report Configuration Edits
