Configuring the ClearTrial Clinical Trial Management System Connector

You configure the connector on the middle-tier application server for Siebel Clinical by editing sample property files located in User Home\ses\siebsrvr\CLASSES\ctconnector\samples directory, where User Home is the account or login that executes the Siebel Clinical installation. Copy the files to another location before you begin editing. The connector configuration must include these files in the User Home/ClearTrialCtmsData directory.

To configure the ClearTrial Clinical Trial Management System Connector  

1. Copy the following configuration property files from the User Home\ses\siebsrvr\CLASSES\ctconnector\samples directory into the User Home/ClearTrialCtmsData directory:

   • ctmsProtocolBaselinePlan.properties

   • application.properties

   • locationMap.properties

   • ctmsLabel.properties

     For information about the data to include in these files, see "Sample Configuration Files for the ClearTrial Clinical Trial Management System Connector".

2. To obtain each Protocol ID in the ctmsProtocolBaselinePlan.properties file, complete the following steps:

   1. In the Clinical Trial Management System, navigate to the Protocols screen.

   2. Query for the protocol name in the protocol number field, and then select the record for the protocol name.

   3. Click the cogwheel icon, and select About Record.

      In the About Record dialog box that appears, the row number designates the Protocol ID.

3. To obtain each ClearTrial Baseline Plan ID in the ctmsProtocolBaselinePlan.properties file, complete the following steps:

   1. In the ClearTrial Track, select the plan name for the study with a baseline status.

   2. Click View.

      The plan ID appears in the address field of the browser as follows:

      ClearTrial URL/cleartrial/plan/ViewPlan?id=planid&curPage=1
      

4. In the application.properties file, include the necessary parameters.

   Table A-4, "Parameters for application.propertie Files" describes the parameters.

5. If you need any location mappings not already included in the locationMap.properties file, then add them to the file.

6. If you need any status customization not already included in the ctmsLabel.properties file, then add them to the file.
