CREDIT:
1. The On\Off Study Report now allows for selection of Disease Site as a filter.

2. When creating a Data Management Log entry, the system now has Email Notification capability. By default, the Research Nurse and Data Manager are pulled into the Notification List. These can be added to or removed by the user. Only staff with Email Addresses loaded into their staff profile are available for selection.

3. There are 7 new Macros that can be used for Patient Merging:
@InvestigatorStreet
@InvestigatorStreet2
@InvestigatorCity
@InvestigatorState
@InvestigatorZip
@InvestigatorPhone
@InvestigatorFax

4. The IRB Adverse Event page has had a make-over. There have been many requests over the last few months to somehow shrink the page. And that is exactly what has happened. When the page first loads, none of the existing AEs are displayed. There is a new link at the top of the page to SHOW Adverse Events. Clicking that link loads the page with all the existing events that have been added over the history of the study. If the page is in SHOW mode, a new link is available to HIDE Adverse Events. When the AEs are in Show mode, the space required by each AE has also been reduced. Font size is smaller and the links to EDIT, Form: Print\Word, Document: Print\Word are all clustered in the Memo Cell. This page design is from our new DDOTS Member: Jamie Samland!

Further, You can change the default if you want to HIDE via File Operations > System > System Default Variables > IRB Activities > Hide External Adverse Events when Page Loads

The default is DISABLED, so the page will not Hide the events when it loads up.

5. When editing an existing Staff Member, the name of the staff floats on a bar of the screen to remind staff which member is being edited.

6. If Patient Follow-up Locations is Enabled, there is a new feature to allow each Location to be INACTIVE, which stops the Location from being available for New Accruals.

7. The Staff Information Report now allows filtering by Staff Position.

8. When Patient\Protocol Documents are uploaded, the list of Organizations that are allowed Access to the document are defaulted to only Organizations that are set to ACTIVE in the Edit Hospital\Affiliate File Operations page. Further, there is now an "all" and "none" that is associated with the check boxes for Access.

9. When a patient needs re-consenting, a notice shows up on all patient\protocol pages for the patient. This feature has been enabled for several years. Now, the ID of the event is also displayed and is linked to a popup alert box that details the elements of the IRB Event that caused the re-consent. Additionally, on the Patient Consent Log Page, the entries are also linked to pull information from the IRB Event, if appropriate.
