Laboratory expenses

Know what your office owes each laboratory.

DiagNow connects analysis expenses to pollutant reports, from sampling to payment. Review known amounts by laboratory and sample type, including PDF requests sent to laboratories you add manually.

Who is it for?

For expert offices tracking asbestos, PCB, PAH and other analysis costs alongside their reports.

01 Known amounts kept separate from samples without a price
02 Totals by analysis type and balances by laboratory
03 Prices for partner laboratories and manually added PDF laboratories
04 Payments and cancellations reflected in the balance

Costs linked to reports

A useful total with the detail needed to check it.

DiagNow links each known cost to a sent sample, its analysis type and the original report. The overview shows expenses by pollutant while keeping the requests and laboratories behind each amount accessible.

How it works

How DiagNow structures this workflow.

DiagNow

Partner laboratory prices

A connected laboratory can set a general price by sample type or a specific price for an organisation. Samples without a price stay flagged instead of being treated as free.

DiagNow

Manually added PDF laboratories

Add a laboratory without a DiagNow account and enter its prices by analysis type. Samples and prices enter expense tracking after you confirm that the PDF request was sent.

DiagNow

Totals by pollutant and laboratory

Review known totals for asbestos, PCB, PAH and other sample types, as well as amounts still owed to each laboratory. Search by report, laboratory or sample reference.

DiagNow

Payments and cancelled orders

The overview separates paid requests from outstanding amounts. Cancelled orders leave active totals so abandoned analyses do not remain payable.

From sample to amount due

Four steps to trace every cost.

01

Sample

Record samples and analysis types in the pollutant report.

02

Choose

Select a partner laboratory or one added for PDF requests.

03

Confirm

A sent request enters expense tracking with the available prices.

04

Track

Review totals, complete missing prices and record payments.

Frequently asked questions

What offices need to know before changing tools.

When does a PDF request count as an expense?

After you confirm sending it. The request samples are then recorded with any known prices from the manually added laboratory.

What happens to samples without a price?

They remain visible as unpriced and are not counted as zero cost. You can complete missing prices to make the amount due accurate.

Can I see totals by pollutant?

Yes. The expense view groups samples and known amounts by analysis type, including asbestos, PCB and PAH.

Does a cancelled order remain in the amount due?

No. Cancelled orders are excluded from active amounts and remain identifiable in request tracking.
