Collection management

Collections are managed by collection managers (see Administration -> Transaction management -> Collection managers ... in the menu), who organize the transfer of specimen between collections and track the exchange balances . Any transfer of specimen is organized via transactions (see Administration -> Transaction management -> Transaction ... in the menu). To be able to place a request for specimen from a collection you must be in the group of requesters (see Administration -> Transaction management -> Loan requesters ... in the menu) for the requested collection and a collection manager for the requesting collection. An overview is given in the image below.
