In QAP10 the term 'process' means a mechanism based on forms which enable the user to create his own and so to suit to his activity. Thus there are several families of process :

• product (default)
• reagent
• product sample

For example you can set a process family 'Production' to gather production process, and 'Quality ctrl' to manage the quality of your production. You may add another one : 'Reagent' if you need special actions to validate your reagents. And so on …

Obviously you can define an unlimited numbers of process under each family.

The different families of process are set in the dictionary under the label PROCESS_FAMILY (inside table DICTIONARY_LABEL)

Per default, a process family is related to the product managed by your laboratory. If you want to link a process family with other than products, you need to add the following json format entry in the field parameters

• REAGENT for reagent
• SAMPLE for product sample

So for example the field 'parameters' may looks like

  {
    "object":"REAGENT"
  }
