Available when the Lab module is enabled for your organisation.
The Lab group (sidebar: Lab ▸) is the workspace for quality teams. It manages samples and the quality measurements that run through the whole system.

Samples
Register samples linked to lots or arrivals. A sample represents physical coffee pulled for testing — green intake checks, roast QC, cupping, and so on.
Parameters and targets
Quality is captured as parameters (measurements) compared against targets (acceptable ranges) defined per zone:
- Moisture and density for green intake
- Cupping scores for sensory evaluation
- Roast/grind/pack specifications as configured
How lab data flows through Roasthubs
- Parameters recorded on a sample attach to the related lot.
- Targets are configured per zone (Parameters / Targets tabs on zone pages).
- Quality data appears on the lot's Parameters tab and in exported lot PDFs.
