Multiple digital approvals
Moon allows reports to be digitally approved by multiple lab members, with no restrictions on the number of approvals that can be added. This allows for maximum flexibility.
For a two person approval, an example of a possible flow is indicated below:
When finalised, the report is digitally Signed by lab members indicated by the Administrator to have the capability of Signing reports.
Below the digital signature, the drop-down menu at the right, allows to assign the sample to another member of the Lab account for the second and final approval. This person should be a lab member with the capability to Authorize reports.
Upon assigning the sample to another lab member, that lab member will see a notification on the Sample Overview screen, that new samples have been assigned. These can easily be viewed by using the My Samples filter.
