At what point will new test announcements have the new ordering mnemonic to build versus the numeric unit code?
After SCC Soft is live, any new test will be defined only with Soft ordering mnemonics and codes. You can continue to use the numeric unit code numbers. When requesting setup for a test that is performed in Soft, you will only be sent Soft ordering mnemonics.
