Duplicate lab orders

Before entering new lab orders it is essential that users determine that there is not an
existing order for the same test.
If another order exists: cancel the existing order first, sign it, and then enter the new
order.

Frequencies
Frequency trumps Priority order details. Check the Frequency Document to be sure the
frequency chosen can have specific dates and/or time set by user.
