This is a two-day LabVantage Portal administration course.

Registration is open exclusively to current customers of LabVantage Solutions.

There are some implementations of LabVantage that serve groups of people who do not work in the laboratory. These groups of people can be identified as clients. These clients desire an interactive means of accessing the laboratory data while at the same time being granted the opportunity to make some modifications to that data.

A portal is a collection of apps (applications) that can be presented to clients. These apps are process-driven collections of web pages created using LabVantage's Web Page Designer. These pages present a more dynamic interface to these clients than traditional forms and lists.

This two-day course includes instruction where you will learn how to manage and create portal apps. You will learn how to create interactive dashboards and pages to present data to your Portal users.
