Access role security under the study settings menu: Add new roles or edit existing ones in the list. To delete a role swipe right to left. The role permissions grid is accessible at the bottom of this screen. The grid is a more universal view of all application permissions across all roles in the study. This is also exportable for saving a snapshot of the study permissions at a specific point in time.
Tap a role to open its details, or tap the form rights button at the bottom to edit view/edit rights for each form in the study. Tap the icon in the upper right to view the study permissions. The application dropdown at the top displays the various functional areas of the system. Within each is are all underlying permissions. |

Role - Role of the reviewer to the system
Status - This must be a value between 10 and 19. Every record in the system has a status based on its current state.

Adverse Event Field - This is the field (must be a choice field) you want the system to use specifically when counting the number of AEs in various reports. If this is not set, it will default to simply use using the form defined above.

Do Not Send E-Mail Notifications to the Site
If you are concerned about spamming your Site, you can check this setting so email notifications will not be sent to the Site.

When a query is created or closed manually, it provides the user with a list of possible reasons for creating or closing the query.

The Version Manager is found under the Study menu:
After a new version is created, and sites have been included in that version, the system will include any future enrolled subjects in that version. Any subjects that already existed at a site will remain on a prior version unless they are migrated to the more recent version. Important notes when migrating subjects:
To migrate subjects, follow the steps annotated in the image below:
When subjects are migrated their records are moved to the new version of the forms, possibly only some of which contain actual changes. If there were any changes to the visit schedule or the forms selected to be collected within the visits, those changes can be made directly in the visit schedule setup. Version migration is only related to subject forms and data. |

Open the study settings to access version control See versions that have been created. This is also where new versions can be created. Tap the Migrate option at the top of the screen: Drag the desired version over to the site which you wish to include in that version moving forward. The option to “Release Version” is used for newly created studies where the study builder wishes to start all sites at version one without individually going through all sites to get them back to the first version. To do this, data must first be cleared from the study. |

The audit settings dictate how the system tracks changes to study data. To access it, open the Study Configuration page and select the Audit tab. Read below the image for a description of each setting.
...
Audit Changes to Subject CRF data
- This tells the system to track data changes on all subject forms.
- When data is changed on an existing subject record, the system will ask the user to provide a reason for changing the data. These reasons can be pre-set and required, as explained in the next few options.
Use coded instead of the free text field for the reason
- If this is checked, when reasons are provided for changing data, it will force the user to use the pre-set options. This makes data management a little easier.
Allow first reason to be inserted for all other reasons
- If several data changes are made on the same record, this option allows (but does not force) the user to enter the same reason for all the changes with one click, rather than going through and providing a reason for each individual field.
- Allows the study designer to provide pre-set reasons for changing data. This may be forced on users or it can be made optional (see #3 above).
...
For Administrators, the audit trail for data entry can be seen globally via the Record Transaction Audit and the Data Change Audit reports. These display all events and changes on in all forms in the study.
