12.1 The system shall allow users to create, maintain, and revise schedules—and any associated due dates—for various laboratory tasks and processes, while making scheduled tasks easy to monitor from one system location, e.g., using a dashboard.
12.2 The system scheduler shall be capable of working with a variety of laboratory tasks and experiments, such as calibrations, maintenance, and stability studies.
12.3 The system scheduler shall automatically create a sample number specifically for recording the results of calibration, validation, and maintenance.
12.4 The system shall be capable of handling industry-specific testing characteristics (e.g., randomized representative sampling, substrate-specific test schedules) for scheduled analyses.
