A user with the Project Manager permission for the Project can Approve or Reject Lab Reports.

Approving a Lab Report indicates the results have been reviewed and are accepted. 

Rejecting a Lab Report indicates the results have been reviewed and are not acceptable. The Lab may need to be notified and Lab Report revisions requested.

A new version of a Lab Report can be imported only if the prior version has been rejected or has not yet been approved.

An approved Report can not be overwritten by a later version without specifically rejecting it to allow an overwrite.

On Approval the following information will be displayed (Revoke is only available to Project Managers):

Note that results from Rejected Lab Reports will still be available in Data Views, such as Chem Tables, unless they are specifically excluded using a filter.  To permanently exclude this data from Data Views you can delete the Laboratory Report.
