Track Workflow Manager overview
The Track Workflow Manager (TWM) uses an algorithm to translate individual sample orders
into preanalytical processing steps and target destinations (target plan). Order input, test
sequence, and results validation are managed through the laboratory information system (LIS)
and middleware. The Track Sample Manager (TSM) controls the transportation of samples
on CARs to their destinations (for example, modules and analyzers) along the laboratory
automation system (LAS). The TWM is located between the LIS, middleware, and TSM, and
has the following functions:
• Receives the orders from the LIS through the middleware
• Reports information about analyzers and their available tests
• Reports information about the modules installed on the LAS
• Computes sample routes according to customer-defined configuration for specific
laboratory needs and requirements
The following list provides the key features of the TWM:
• Target plan creation for samples
• Customer-specific calculation of sample routing
• Customizable specification of laboratory requirements
• Ability to activate or deactivate one or more tests or instruments
• Web-based application with a user interface that can be accessed from any workplace in
the network by using a browser
• Ability to receive the orders from the LIS through the middleware
