The solution is to have the chemical manufacturers add a simple UPC code to their labels (or better yet, an IR tag.)  Can you imagine walking into a lab, waving a device and having an instant inventory?  The technology exists - why every other item for sale on the plant has a UPC and chemicals don't is something I can't understand.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] tool for lab chemical inventory

Who can help the following question?  With GHS is coming next year, how to manage the labelling elements is a pressing issue:
 
I am looking for a simple tool to use for maintaining a lab chemical inventory which automatically provides GHS classification (Danger and H&P phrases) when provided with minimal information eg CAS no.
Does anyone have a solution? SAP EHS is somewhat of an overkill and not very lean.
 
Thanks
Qirong
