Configuring the Setup of a COI Generation

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to analyze the purpose and key components of configuring COI generation rules..

Introduction

This lesson covers configuring COI generation rules in the SAP Cell and Gene Therapy Orchestration solution. It explains how to create rules using sequential or random patterns, and manage their activation and deactivation.

COI Generation Rules

In the SAP Cell and Gene Therapy Orchestration solution, this application can be found under the COI/COC tab or use Configure COI Generation Rules in the open search section to access it. During COI generation, this app drives the parameters to follow like Character limit, pattern like Sequential or Random.

  • Sequential - The COI number is picked based on the starting sequence number and ending sequence number
  • Random - the COI number is determined randomly based on the character position type
The image shows the COI/COC section of an SAP application, with three main menu items: Monitor COI, Monitor COC, and Configure COI Generation Rules. The Configure COI Generation Rules option appears to be the focus of this menu.

Configuring COI Generation Rules

Sequential Pattern

Click on Create as pointed to in the figure above on how to create a new entry.

The Configuration is different based on the COI ID Pattern.

For Sequential COI ID pattern:

  • Unique ID of 10 characters
  • COI ID pattern that represents sequential
  • Default rule check box (if marked 'Yes' this entry is determined by default if there are multiple COI generation rules are active)
  • ID limit character - to suggest the number of characters are allowed in the COI ID
  • Starting and Ending sequence numbers - the COI ID is incremented by one from the starting sequence number till the ending sequence number is consumed
The image shows the Configure COI Generation Rules screen in an SAP application. It allows users to create a new COI (Condition of Instrumentation) generation rule with a unique ID. The screen includes fields for configuring the COI ID pattern, setting a default rule, specifying the ID limit character, and defining the starting and ending sequence numbers for a sequential pattern.

Random Pattern

For Random COI ID pattern:

  • Unique ID of 10 characters
  • COI ID pattern that represents random
  • Default rule check box (if marked 'Yes' this entry is determined by default if there are multiple COI generation rules are active)
  • ID limit character - to suggest the number of characters are allowed in the COI ID
  • ID Character Position Mapping - this is to specify the number and type of characters to be used in the ID
    • Position Type represents weather it's a Fixed value or Numeric or a Alphanumeric character per position
    • Value carries the fixed character if position type is selected as Fixed value
  • An example of COI with random generation rule RG57E7DJ1, in this case, the first two positions are fixed with characters R and G, the remaining 7 characters are picked randomly based on the position type marked as Numeric or Alphanumeric
The image shows the Configure COI Generation Rules screen in an SAP application, focused on configuring a random COI ID pattern. The screen includes fields for setting the COI ID pattern to Random, specifying the ID limit character, and configuring the ID character position mapping. This allows defining the number and type of characters (fixed, numeric, or alphanumeric) to be used in the randomly generated COI ID.

Activation and Deactivation

When a new COI generation rule is saved, the status is set to Active by default. At any point in time, the generation rule can be deactivated by providing the right Deactivation Reason, some optional comments, and reviewing the Where used list. In the same way, deactivated entries can be activated by providing the right Activation Reason.

The image shows the Configure COI Generation Rules screen in an SAP application, focusing on a specific COI generation rule with the ID RANDOM. The rule is configured to use a random COI ID pattern, with a default rule set and an ID limit character of 9. The screen allows configuring the ID character position mapping, specifying the position type (fixed, numeric, or alphanumeric) and corresponding values for each character position in the randomly generated COI ID.
