Marking a form as skipped (a form is not applicable, unknown, or not done)

In some cases it might be appropriate to skip an entire form. If your study protocol permits, you can skip a form for any of these reasons:

• The form is not applicable.
• The data is not available.
• The procedure to collect the data for an item was not done and the data was not collected.

To mark a form as skipped:

1. Instead of entering data in the form, enter a form comment that describes the reason the form is skipped.
2. In the If Incomplete, Reason section of the Comment page, select the reason that best describes why you are leaving the item blank.
3. Click Submit.

   A confirmation dialog box appears.

4. Click OK.
5. Click Return.

   The items on the form reflect the reason selection you made, and the item background color is gray, indicating that the items are considered complete.
