LabLynx KB:ELab 7 user manual - data entry

Data Entry Overview

LabLynx enables you to manage the entry of Sample Test Parameter data and approve, re-run, or cancel these results for a batch (process group) or for non-batch samples. A Process Group, or Batch, is a single entity under which any number of sample tests may be grouped for data entry purposes. It may continue to have sample tests added to or deleted from it until results entry has been completed and approved for a given Process.

For a demonstration of this function, see:
