  3. Select the diagnostic test or result component that you'd like to archive by highlighting the test or result.
  4. Select the Archived checkbox.

  1. A Confirmation window will appear.

Note: The pop-up box is referring to a circumstance in which you're updating the Privacy Level of a Diagnostic Test.  Answering YES to the pop-up would update all requisitions for that diagnostic test with the new Privacy Level. Answering NO would leave all requisitions at their current visibility setting. In the circumstance above, it is appropriate to answer No.
