With software updates being introduced each week it’s easy to miss features that could have a meaningful impact on your lab. We’ve highlighted a few in this edition of our newsletter.

Labnext Reporting

We’ve made updates to a several Labnext reports to give you better visibility into what’s happening in the lab:

New Case Report

We’ve added a Group by Account and User Entry preference to this report. This gives you the ability to identify the value of cases entered for products during a timeframe as well as being able to track data entry.

To edit the case production schedule, you simply drag the tasks in case’s Gantt chart. We’ve enhanced this functionality so now if you hold the CTRL button down and drag a task, all of the following tasks move with it. This small update will make your lab’s task management much more efficient.

Patient Appointments Report

This new report details cases that have not been invoiced based on the patient appointment date to provide insight into what work needs to be completed and shipped. Critical detail at your fingertips so that your practices always receive their cases in advance of the patient’s appointment. No case falls through the cracks.

Reporting with Tags

Labnext Tags provide powerful and flexible functionality to categorize cases and accounts. Labnext accounts can be tagged as being part of a DSO, study group,… Cases can similarly be tagged to categorize.

Many Labnext reports support filtering by tags so that you can track revenue by tag,… This structure is very flexible and can be tailored to meet your unique reporting needs.

Account Reporting

Run reports related to a specific account from within the Labnext Account. With the account record open, click on Actions and the desired report:
