Important Notice - In June 2024, we released a new version of our Inventory system. Updated documentation for the Inventory is available in our new Support Portal. All documentation for the entire eLabNext platform will be fully migrated to the new Support Portal over the course of 2024. Start using the new Inventory documentation.


Before samples can be added to the inventory, users need to define sample types for their lab. Sample types are system templates for storing sample information. You can create as many sample types as you like and are free to customize them with a range of specification fields.
