Laboratory Management

The laboratory management domain contains essential functionality for laboratory management.
 
Alarms:
LabPlus provides a log for any set events such as QA corrective actions, equipment malfunction, QC non-conformance, Operations improvement, etc.
 
Notifications/Subscribers
With LabPlus it is possible to configure notifications and their subscribers.  Setting the notification screen in the “favorites” allows an easy monitoring of any changes happening within the system.  Notifications can be managed in LabPlus and also be sent automatically by email.

Notifications can be set-up by user and by role for any entity of the system.  Desired preset conditions or custom ones are checked by user.  Notification conditions can be triggered by any type of events (status change, dates, creation of entity, and more).  These conditions are executed by LabPlus Plug-ins. 
 
Lab State
The lab state function is a panel that provides access to various events that where generated by the system during analysis, events such as out of specification samples, calibration reminders, and more. Supervisors can document actions taken or add comments to the event logs.

Lab Compliance

CFR21 Part 11 Compliance
LabPlus provides various improvements for CFR21 Part 11 compliance. For instance, it is possible to specify acceptance steps requirements such as signatures in workflows before saving data; these signatures comply with the digital signature requirements. In addition, snapshots of significant reports are saved in the database as OLE objects.

QA/QC Programs
LabPlus provides the ability to configure QC plans by instrument, method, test-plans, worksheet and analysts. It manages standards reference materials and solutions and most QC sample types, such as blanks, calibrations, standards, duplicates, replicates, and spikes. In addition, the system provides capabilities to follow-up on QA corrective actions such as equipment malfunction, QC non-conformance, Operation improvement, and more.
 
QA/QC
QA/QC functions are designed to provide increased capabilities and allow improved tracking and control of lab operations.  All quality controls integrate similar attributes and provide enhanced capabilities such as charting, the ability to manage multilayer (category and types) of controls, automatic calculations for % recoveries, accuracy, etc.  It is possible to define validation and control plans by methods, but in addition it will also be possible to define them for worksheets, instruments, etc.  Hence, the scope for controls, such as calibrations and blanks, can be global to a method for a given period of time or be valid within the scope of a worksheet.

Statistics/Business Intelligence
 
Statistics
Consist in built-in aggregate queries for laboratory and QA supervisors.
 
Graphical Charting Object
LabPlus provides tools to maintain QC charts (3sigmas) for controls and sample results.
