Receiving coral records that specimens have arrived from another participant or another location you own. Saving a receive event updates each specimen's current owner and location in the Coral Traceability Solution (CTS). You start from the Receive Coral tile on the Home screen.
Not Tagged? Pleas note, if the coral you are receiving is not already tagged, you should use the 'Tag Coral' action and select 'Enter purchase', see How do I tag coral from a domestic purchase?
Open Receive Coral and scan
On the Home screen, tap the Receive Coral tile. The Receive coral scanning screen opens with your default scanning method, an empty Scanned items list (with an EDIT button), and two buttons at the bottom: Add notes and Receive coral, both greyed out until you scan.
Scan each specimen's tag. Each tag ID appears in the Scanned items list (for example, 'RFID.99910231923102931') and the header shows the total. Once at least one item is scanned, the buttons become active.
For the scanning methods and how to remove a wrong scan, see How do I choose or change my scanning method (RFID, QR or Visual ID)?
Optionally add notes
To add a note, tap Add notes, tap the Add notes field, and type your note (for example, 'Received shipment from Cairns facility, all specimens in good condition'). The note is saved when you finalise the receive action.
Finalise and save
Tap Receive coral. The data is saved to the CTS and a confirmation notification appears at the bottom of the screen (for example, 'Batch received!' in green), with a dismiss (×) button.
What gets updated
For each received specimen, the CTS updates the current Owner to your participant organisation and the current Location to your default location, and adds a 'Received' event to the specimen's traceability journey. You can view the change on the web app in the Product List.
To set your default location, see How do I set my default tagging method and location?
