10 Contacts

This chapter describes how to work with Mobile CRA contacts. It contains the following topics:

10.1 Introduction to Contacts

Mobile CRA maintains a contact list separate from your Smartphone contacts. The contact list within the Mobile CRA application will synchronize with the CTMS contact list. The CTMS contacts delivered to Mobile CRA will be the contacts associated with your assigned sites, where you are on the study team. All contacts will be read only. You can set a user preference to control the frequency of contact synchronization, and the time at which the synchronization occurs.

The following steps describe how to navigate within CRA contacts:

  1. Tap Contacts in the Mobile CRA menu. A list of studies is displayed.

  2. Tap a study to view the contacts for it.
