This LEDI Order Test Mapping option is used to identify where the data
The second step is to choose the local Laboratory Test Name (File #60).
The third step is to choose the associated National VA Lab Code for that
test (File 64 entry). Once a valid National VA Lab Code is chosen - the
system will ask if the user wants to link the File 60 entry to the File
#64 entry. It is strongly recommended to link the entries so that the
associated name fields will be activated allowing easier lookups of the
tests in the future.

The last choice is to choose the report format for the lab test that will
be accepted for LEDI transmission. This is called the MI/AP Database Code
(File #64.061). This code must contain the same lab area subscript as
