Action taken
SCC Soft Computer issued a Risk-to-Health notification with Client Notification Verbiage to the affected client using SCC Soft Computer's proprietary Task Management System on June 8, 2006. SCC recommended SoftPath/SoftWeb users NOT re-use SoftPath case numbers when cases are cancelled. The generic option setting "Specimen Registration - Standard Settings - Minimum Time to Reactivate Case Number" should be set to "0" so the user is not prompted to reuse the same case number. Client was asked to acknowledge receipt of the task and grant permission to load the required software correction.
