The most common workflow between a clinic and a lab is the following

  1. Dentist scans a TRIOS order and sends it to the lab. 3scom portal status: Scanned sent.

    Trios customer can also verify that the case sent successfully and complete, logging into their account in https://portal.3shapecommunicate.com/.
