Use

If you want to discontinue the stability tests for a storage condition for an undetermined period of time, with the option of resuming testing at a later date, you can deactivate the stability study for this storage condition. When you do this, the system locks the stability sample for this storage condition. This locked status prevents the deadline monitoring function from creating an inspection lot for the storage condition when a test date comes due.

If inspection lots have already been created for the storage condition for future test dates that lie within in this inactive period, you must manually cancel these inspection lots .

If the deadline monitoring function determines that inspection lots cannot be created for a certain test date because all stability samples scheduled to be tested on this date are locked, the test date still receives the status Called . You cannot, however, confirm and complete this test date using the functions for inspection lot processing, since no inspection lots exist for this test date. In this case, you must complete the test date manually in the testing schedule.

Prerequisites

The physical sample for the storage condition is not locked (that is, the storage condition is active).
