When a laboratory delivers an EDD, the EDD file naming structure is based on the SDG/Group number. The web code uses this SDG/Group number to match the EDD to the correct Chain of Custody (COC).
However, when the consultant creates a COC, the SDG number is empty because it does not exist yet. In order for the EDD to load, the SDG must be assigned to the COC prior to attempting to load the EDD.
At this time, either a laboratory or a consultant can assign the SDG number. You do it by searching for the COC and adding it to the SDG/Group # file, and then clicking “Update”
