Reason
Beckman Coulter has determined that when the maintenance log for December is printed or saved,entries for the subsequent eleven (11) months are lost and cannot be retrieved unless the database was backed-up prior to performing the print or save actions. For example, if December 2012 is printed or saved, any maintenance log entries for January - November 2013 will be lost. This issue can result in potentially incomplete maintenance log entries. No other report generator functions or patient results are affected by this issue.
