Getting started

Navigating the dashboard

Find your way around the Labgen workspace and its modules.


The Labgen dashboard is organised around the daily flow of a lab: register a patient, order tests, capture results, verify, and deliver. The left navigation groups every module, and a built-in team chat panel sits alongside your work.

The workspace

  • Left navigation — every module, grouped by area (patients, reports, network, insights, settings).
  • Main panel — the screen you're working in.
  • Team chat — a collapsible panel on the right for staff messaging. See Team chat.

Roles and access

Not everyone sees everything. Labgen uses roles to keep sensitive screens — like financials and audit trails — limited to the right people.

RoleTypical access
Lab owner / adminEverything, including MIS, data logger, and settings
Center managerMost operations plus business reporting
Lab staffPatient registration, result entry, reports

Owner-only modules

MIS & reporting and the Data logger are restricted to the lab owner and center managers, because they expose revenue and compliance data.

Multi-location

If you run more than one branch, your data is kept cleanly separated per lab while rolling up into the same account, so head-office reporting sees the whole picture and each branch sees its own work.
