Signing into Orchard Copia

To sign into the program, perform the following:

1. Enter your user name and password in the corresponding fields.
2. Click the Sign In button.
   Note that you must have the necessary security settings before you can access Copia. These settings also determine what functions you can perform (browse results, enter orders, etc.). Your Copia System Administrator is responsible for security and access.
3. Depending on your entry, one of the following happens:
• If your entry is not valid, Copia informs you of that fact and clears your entry. You may do one of the following:
  • Re-enter your sign in information. Note that there may be a limit on the number of failed sign in attempts that Copia allows.
  • Click the Forgot Password? link to use the password reset feature established on the Application page. See the Application topic. Note that if your facility is using LDAP or Active Directory authentication for sign ins, this feature will not be available.

    If you have defined password reset questions and you click the Forgot Password? link, Copia presents the Reset Password dialog. Answer each question, and then click Next to continue. Once you answer all three questions, enter a New Password, enter it again in the Confirm Password field, and then click Next to continue. Copia confirms the change; click Close to continue signing into the program.

• Contact your Copia System Administrator if you cannot remember your user name or password.
• If your entry is valid, Copia opens the program and displays one of the following pages:
• Set Location: By default, this page appears when you sign into Copia. However, if you select the Always Use Selected Location option on the Set Location page, then your selected Application Start Page immediately appears. See the Set Location topic.
• Your Application Start Page: Order Patient Samples or the page you selected as your application start page. If you have selected the Always Use Selected Location option on the Set Location page, then Copia uses the selected location automatically and immediately opens your selected Application Start Page instead of the Set Location page. You may configure the Application Start Page setting in the Application page. See the Application topic.
  
4. Click the button on the Sign In page to open the Copia Information page, which generally contains primary/secondary support contacts, hours for support, and email or phone contact information. See the Program Information topic.
5. After you sign in, you may click the button in the upper right corner of any Copia page for additional help on using Copia. Once you have opened the help, the Contents, Index, and Search tabs appear in the left portion of the help page. Click the link for the Help on Help topic, which is one of the first topics listed in the Contents, for additional information on using online help. See the Help on Help topic.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT PRIVACY: If you leave Copia open for an extended period of time with no activity, you will be automatically signed out and required to sign in again. This prevents unauthorized access to your account, but it does not prevent someone from viewing the information currently on the page. Remember to protect the privacy of your patients by signing out and closing Copia when you are done with the program.
