Editing a Case

To edit a case that you have added to eSlide Manager previously, you follow the same steps you do in adding the case. The primary differences are:

  1. On the list or folder view page for cases, you select an existing case and click Open Data rather than selecting New.

  2. In some fields on the Case Detail page, you'll be modifying existing data, whereas when you add a case initially, all of the fields are blank.  If you did not enter data into some of the fields when you added the case, you may do so while editing the Case Details page.  (See Adding a New Case for more information.)

You can also edit the Specimen and Digital Slides Details Pages by scrolling down.

If you do not have permission to modify this page, you will not be able to make changes to it.

 

When you edit the details or add a new data element, you can add or make changes in related data elements.  When you open a parent or grandparent record, for example, you can make changes in the child elements.  When you edit a child element, the parent element can be modified as well.
