The Generic Code can be either populated automatically from POISINDEX®, entered manually, or populated by performing a Generic Code search.
Note: It is imperative that manually entered generic codes are correct. If the generic code is not exact it will not pass validation, or will be rejected when the data is sent to the TESS® database.
To locate a Generic Code using the lookup button to the right
of the field,
click the button to open the Generic Code lookup window. Type in the category to
be searched. (Example: Glue) Select the appropriate Generic Code from the
Generic Code window and click the add button or double click the highlighted
line to populate the field in the case.
Note1: The Generic Code you choose may have a subcategory. If so, choose the appropriate subcategory Generic Code. To save the Generic Code once back on the main Toxicall® screen, hit the Save icon to the left of the Generic Code window.
Note2: If the Generic Code is not saved after it has been selected, and a search is performed for another Generic Code, the original Generic Code will be overwritten.
