Deciding whether to create custom special InForm forms or use the default forms

Oracle recommends using the default forms if the items they contain meet your needs. You must create custom screening and enrollment forms if:

• You want to collect additional data (other than the default items) in the screening or enrollment form or to copy that data into another form in the study.
• You want users to be able to edit the screening or enrollment form after a subject is enrolled.
• You do not want to collect the default data on the screening or enrollment form.
• You want to translate the screening and enrollment forms.

You must create a form with the special Patient Identification Special Forms property if you want users to be able to update the patient number or initials and have the updated information stored in the patient object in the study database. If you create a form with the special Patient Identification Special Forms property, the form must include the special Patient Number item with a Special Fields property value of Patient No. (Enrollment) if:

• You include the special Patient Number item in a custom enrollment form.
• You use the default enrollment form containing the special Patient Number item.
