MS Excel is widely used in laboratories as well as in production. Excel spreadsheets are used in both larger and smaller companies for GxP-relevant applications. However, numerous risks with regard to data security result from the diverse and flexible application possibilities. If Excel is used in a GxP-regulated environment for quality-relevant tasks, special requirements must be met. Such Excel applications may easily come into focus in authority inspections.
But what exactly is necessary to use this powerful tool GxP-compliant and how to pass an Audit?
This webinar is aimed at all those responsible for Excel applications in the various departments (e.g. quality control, quality management, production, IT). These are, e.g. coworkers and high-level personnel from the following industries:
- Pharmaceutical companies
- API manufacturer
- GLP Laboratories
- other companies working according to GxP
Also addressed are employees of medical device manufacturers as well as of universities and research institutions who, for regulatory reasons, have to use Excel in a GxP-compliant way.
