Common questions

Why is there no Separate button? Only Whole Blood units in quarantine or available can be separated, and each component only once per donation.

Who marks units Expired? EloERP does, whenever the dashboard or this list is opened after a unit's expiry time.

Can I undo a discard? No. A discarded unit stays in the register with its reason, for the inspectors.

What does a separated component's expiry count from? From the collection time, plus the component's shelf life in setup.
