Making a site active or inactive

On the Manage Sites page, you can specify whether a site is active or inactive. You cannot enter data for patients assigned to inactive sites.

This option is useful when you need to assign site staff to a different site. Rather than deleting a site, you make it inactive, allowing you to activate it again at a different time. This is especially useful for studies that are being rolled out through a particular region or longitudinal studies where the site becomes active after a number of years; for example, every five years.
