Matrix Gemini LIMS - OneTime Configuration Tools

When a laboratory embarks on a LIMS implementation the process typically begins by referring to a user requirements document that was prepared many months earlier which may not always reflect current needs. As the vendor and customer begin detailed implementation work, both parties usually reach a new level of understanding of what the LIMS is required to do.

As the implementation progresses, the LIMS is moulded to meet the user requirements – a process which often requires a measure of compromise by both parties depending on the flexibility of the LIMS. Once the LIMS is in production it will be expected to have a lifetime extending over many years and, during this time, there are likely to be numerous requests to modify or extend the capabilities of the system.

Matrix GeminiTM LIMS comprises of an elegant suite of LIMS configuration tools designed to facilitate the smooth implementation of a LIMS to meet the current user requirements.This suite of tools can also be used to modify the LIMS as business and/or laboratory needs evolve. A “wizard” style interface and use of a LIMS configuration knowledgebase helps the vendor, and later the system administrator, create and/or modify end-user screens.

Other tools facilitate documenting the configuration and providing configuration control. Successful LIMS do not stand still our unique next generation suite of LIMS configuration tools deliver significant business benefits throughout the lifetime of the system.

Your LIMS requirements will change throughout the lifetime of the system and Matrix GeminiTM LIMS will always be ready to handle your new requirements.

Autoscribe designed Matrix GeminiTM LIMS to be built your way, not our way, and any way you like it, whenever you want to……

AND WE will support and upgrade it ALWAYS.

Why Configuration?

Matrix Gemini LIMS is fully configurable, but based on a standard product core. This ensures that every LIMS we ship can readily archive and retrieve data making your LIMS faster and safer. Every system we have shipped over the last 20 years is fully and readily upgradeable to the current version together with your data. This is a testament to the design that ensures that configuration is built on the standard core programs.

            

A LIMS for ALL Customers in ALL Laboratories in ANY Organisation

Another unique feature of Matrix Gemini is that the configuration tools AUTOMATICALLY build screens for client / server AND for the web browser AND Citrix. This dramatically reduces the effort required to deploy, maintain and validate the LIMS.

OneTime ConfigurationTM

The Matrix Gemini OneTime ConfigurationTM tools let you automatically build screens ONCE that will automatically work over client/server, the Web and Citrix.

The Translation Editor

All screen designs, menus, security profiles, pick-lists, counter formats, triggers, terminology, reports, calculations can be flexibly and fully configured to meet all end-user needs.

The translation editor allows convenient translation of system terminology into different languages or for using site specific terms in the case of multi-site implementations. This includes ALL text displayed within the Matrix LIMS system.

The Menu Editor
Menu “trees” are easily configured without programming. In addition, security settings by user and / or job function can show, hide or “grey out” menu items.

The Counter Editor

Matrix Gemini LIMS supports the use of multiple counters for identifying samples, user sample IDs, batches, lot numbers, complaint numbers, projects, invoices etc. as they are registered into the LIMS. Counters (sample numbering systems) are easily created and modified using a counter editor. Formats are configurable without the need for programming. Eg a a counter can be created composed of the letters “CO” followed by a 2 digit representation of the year, and a sequential 4 digit number, e.g.CO020012, CO020013 etc.

Event Triggers

Event triggers can be added for automated actions, reporting and email.

Report Writing
Matrix Gemini fully integrates with Crystal ReportsTM. A run time engine is used by Matrix LIMS to seamlessly integrate Crystal Reports into the Matrix LIMS user interface.

Exporting Data

Numerous export formats available including .CSV, Word, Excel, HTML, eMail etc.

Supported Databases

A wide choice of any ODBC compliant database connectivity, including:

Oracle
SQL Server
SQL Server 2005 / Express
