Lab technicians, Pathologists report-print nabl pdf-report reported-status

Report Print (lab/pages/report_print.php) generates the final, NABL-format printable/PDF lab report for a completed order, styled consistently with the app's other print views (like invoice printing).

Step-by-step

  1. From a verified order, go to Print Report (?order_id=N).
  2. Review the formatted report — patient details, test results, reference ranges, and verifying pathologist.
  3. If not already marked, use Mark as Reported to formally close out the order's status (requires lab_verify_results) — this updates the order status to "reported" and logs the turnaround-time (TAT) milestone.
  4. Print or save as PDF.
