6. OnLAB – LABORATORY MANAGEMENT
OnLAB is the core of the Lab Management module. This module allows
managers to review final results, print reports, and run various management
statistics. Online LIMS data model is the unique one capable to handle routine
(process) and non-routine (any) samples.

LabDATA – LABORATORY DATA
LabData is for the online self-service
assay requests.
Lab clients can view published
results. LabData eliminates the
time-consuming report
preparation and allows clients to
access other information like
sample tracking, report status,
etc.

9. why Labs like Online LIMS
 No client installation is required. Only a shortcut to the App located
at the Server.
 No ODBC configuration on client
 The only LIMS that can work with routine & non-routine samples
 LIMS is configurable by lab supervisors
 Real instrument integration system
 QA/QC system is user interactive
 Color coded work list menu, reflects status
Online LIMS incorporates the lab’s natural and logical workflow in the design of their
data model. This creates a clean and well-defined structure with two distinct
modules:
1.Analytical and Management. The Online Worksheet is at the core of the Analytical
module and it integrates all instruments in the lab.
2.OnLab is the main module used for the lab management.
This structure has proven very successful and flexible and is easily adapted to any
lab model.

10. SYSTEM DESIGN
System and Design reduces support and maintenance costs
Client-server architecture makes deployment very easy, only requiring adding
short-cuts of the Online LIMS modules on the clients computer desktop. This can
represent huge savings for IT by reducing support and maintenance cost. All
applications and configuration are managed centrally on the server. Note: There is
also no installation or setup required to install the Online LIMS applications on the
server. Simply create a shared folder that can be accessed by the clients computer
in the network.
Online LIMS applications will run in any MS Windows OS from WinXP to Win8.
Online LIMS backend database can use any version of MS SQL server from SQL
Server 7 to SQL Server 2012, also supports SQL Sever Express edition.
System configuration and maintenance is complete in the hands of the client (by
the lab staff! ) requiring very little or no IT support.

11. LABORATORY MANAGEMENT
OnLab - Laboratory Management Module, creates efficiencies
OnLab supports two types of jobs simultaneously: Routine and Batch. Batch jobs are
best suited for client requests that have variable number and type of analysis, for
example Geology, Exploration, Water samples from clients, etc. Routine jobs are best
suited for production environments where the analysis performed are routine in nature,
usually a known sampling point within the process itself, example, Metallurgical
process (copper, gold, zinc), Smelters, Refineries, etc. Routine jobs allows the lab staff
and lab clients to quickly access historical data and do performance analysis
effortlessly.
OnLab data can be easily shared with other systems, and interfaces can be built for
third party ERP or Accounting systems. Online LIMS provides several SQL Server
tools to allow the creation of third party interfaces as easily as possible.
OnLab supports an Excel-based solution to export data from Routine jobs and
generate custom reports.

12. ELN - DIGITAL WORKBOOK
Online LIMS Worksheet - The laboratory technician's digital workbook.
A powerful tool that is easy to learn and facilitates the work of lab staff.
The Online Worksheet is an easy-to-use and a powerful tool able to manage easily complex and
large methods. With its excel "look and feel", users are comfortable in a short time with minimal
training. It has many built-in functions and tools specially designed to aid technicians in their daily
work.
The Online Worksheet has extensive auditing and security functions in combination with an excellent
quality control module, making laboratory accreditation a more "pleasant" and efficient process. Many
laboratories have been able to get their accreditation using the Online LIMS system.
The Online Worksheet is able to retrieve data from many laboratory instruments either via serial
connection or file transfer. Besides retrieving the instruments analysis results, the Worksheet also
stores other instrument parameters such as dilution, standard deviation, uncertainty, notes, etc. This
make the Worksheet a 3D tool that allows the chemist to work not only with the analysis results but
with other parameters supplied by the instrument.
The Online Worksheet also has a "visual wave length selector" tool specially designed to work with
large ICP result sets. This tool allows chemist to visually select the wave length to use within each
element of an ICP method. The selected wave length markers are then converted to formulas before
the results are calculated.
