Date of Visit item

Item

Date of visit.

Purpose in the InForm application

Captures the visit date for any visit.

Required form?

A Date of Visit form is not required; however, a special Date of Visit item must be present on:

• The first form of each visit, if you want to enable the Enforce visit date entry system configuration option in the InForm application.
• The first form of each instance of a repeating visit in the InForm application, regardless of whether the Enforce visit date entry system configuration option is enabled in the InForm application.

Default version generated?

Yes. Validation checks for a Date of Visit item on the first form of each repeating study event. If a Date of Visit item is not present, a default Date of Visit form containing a Date of Visit item is generated for each repeating study event when you deploy a study to the InForm application.

Note: Default forms and items appear in English in the InForm application. Create custom forms and items if you do not want to use the default information or if you want to translate an item or form.

Required items?

• Item—Date of visit.
• Item type—Date time.
• Special Fields property—DOV (Date of Visit).

Other requirements

A study can contain only one Date of visit item. To use the same item in multiple forms, use the Copy > Link command.
