LSS Hints: My Data

The PWM has a temporary storage area where you can store lab data to be inserted into a document.  When viewing lab data, right click on any value to turn the background highlighting green.  This indicates that data has been stored into the My Data clipboard.  Multiple items can be stored in the My Data clipboard.  Right clicking on a selected data item will unselect that data item.

When you are editing a document, the My Data footer button will be active if you have data in the clipboard available to inserted into the document.  Once the information is inserted into a document, the My Data clipboard will be erased.

If you wish to insert data into multiple documents, open the My Data popup window by pressing the My Data footer button when copying laboratory data.  To save the data for multiple insertions, click the checkbox to the right of any data value.  Then click the save icon above the checkboxes.  Now, when you insert the information from the My Data clipboard, the selected data will not be erased after one insertion.  Similarly, from the My Data popup window, any saved piece of data can be deleted by selecting the checkbox to the left of the data item, and then clicking the Delete button above the checkboxes.  Click on the Return button when done editing My Data.

When you insert My Data by clicking the My Data footer button when editing any document or text box, you will also have the opportunity to select data to save for multiple documents or to delete any data from the My Data clipboard before inserting the data.
