Expected Test Result Due Dates for Multiple Tests for One Order
Certain tests for the same order may have different expected test results dates. Each test name appears on one row on the Orders Summary tab. The system displays the result due date that is farthest from the first expected calculated date. For example, you may select three tests for an order, which require different expected result due dates, such as 10/13/2018, 10/15/2018, and 10/16/2018. October 16 is the last expected test due date for this order. Therefore, only 10/16/2018 appears on the row for this order on the Orders Summary tab.
