Study workflows and deployment to the InForm application

The design of a study workflow affects the following characteristics of the InForm study to which it is deployed:

• Order of visits and forms—The order of visits and forms in the InForm application depends on the order in which study objects are connected in a workflow and on the sequence numbers of study objects that are not connected.
• Dynamic status of visits and forms—Whether a visit or form is visible when a subject is enrolled in an InForm study depends on whether a study event or form is associated with a workflow rule or global condition in a study workflow. The outcome of the InForm rule that corresponds to a workflow rule or global condition determines whether a dynamic visit or form is activated.
• Scheduling of visits—The dates in the Visit Calculator that appears when a subject is enrolled in an InForm study and the MedML STARTHOUR value of a visit are generated from the scheduling information specified in a study workflow.
