Review or Submission Groups, no Master Group

This guide explains the Review or Submssion Groups, without the use of a Master Group in detail.

Setup Overview: A Group Manager sets up the group(s) and invites users to join or the user can ask to join the Group. Each individual user registers their account and accepts/joins the group. The Group Manager can set permissions for each member of the Group based on their role (Analyst/Reviewer). For example, you can have the tests be submitted to CTS by only certain people like Tech Reviewers, or you can allow analysts to submit their own tests. All of these steps are covered in detail here, “How to Start a Group for Forensic Programs”

Work Flow Example: A member of a Group (analyst) claims a test using the Participant Code and Web code located on their data sheet (“How to Claim a Test for Data Entry”) and completes the data entry response form (“How to Complete Data Entry”). Once the test is finished, the analyst forwards the test to the review Group (“How to Hand in a Test for Review”). A Tech Reviewer will claim the test and review it. After the test is done being reviewed, it can either be sent back to the analyst as incomplete or complete, forwarded to another group, or submitted to CTS (“How to Review a Test and Perform Post Review Actions”). If the test is sent back to the analyst as incomplete, the analyst can correct the test and then resubmit the test to the review Group.

Below is a flow chart showing the work flow of a single group, no Master Group setup.
