The following table lists the system preferences that you can use to configure core functionality in Siebel Clinical Trial Management System and to integrate Siebel Clinical Trial Management System with third-party applications.

System Preference

Functionality

CL Highest Preference SDV Rule

This setting determines the priority order in which to implement the 3 methods (Manual, Site, and Status) to change the SDV Required field of a subject record. Valid values for this system preference are Status and Manual. The default value is Status.

To understand the priority order for each value in this system preference, note the following scenario:

  • Site method: The Subject Auto-Select Rate field for the site associated with the subject is 50%. Thus, every other subject record initially has a SDV Required field of Yes.

  • Status method: A status rule set indicates that if the Status field of a subject record is Early Terminated, then the SDV Required field of the subject record is automatically changed to Yes. None of the Status fields in the subject records initially has a value of Early Terminated.

If you set this system preference to Status, then the 3 methods are implemented in the following priority order: Status, Manual, and Site. Note the following:

  • You can manually change the SDV Required field of a subject record from Yes to No because the manual method has a higher priority than the sitee method.

  • If you change the Status field of the subject record to Early Terminated, then the SDV Required field of the subject record automatically changes back to Yes because the status method has a higher priority than the manual method.

  • You cannot manually change the SDV Required field of the subject record back to No because the status method has a higher priority than the manual method.

  • If you change the value in the Subject Auto-Select Rate field for the site associated with the subject, then the SDV Required field cannot automatically change because the status method has a higher priority than the site method.

If you set this system preference to Manual, then the 3 methods are implemented in the following order: Manual, Status, and Site. Note the following:

  • You can manually change the SDV Required field of a subject record from Yes to No because the manual method has a higher priority than the status method and the site method.

  • If you change the Status field of the subject record to Early Terminated, then the SDV Required field does not automatically change back to Yes because the manual method has a higher priority than the status method.

  • If you change the value in the Subject Auto-Select Rate field for the site associated with the subject, then the SDV Required field cannot automatically change because the manual method has a higher priority than the site method.

CL – Verify TripReportApprover

This setting turns on or off approver verification for trip reports. When enabled, the User Verification screen is launched during the approval process for trip reports to verify the user login credentials of the approver. To enable approver verification for trip reports, set the value to Y. The value is set to N by default.

Clinical_Training_Commit_Freq

This setting determines how frequently updated site records are saved in the Siebel database when you run the batch job to publish training plans and associate training topics with the site records. The default value for this system preference is 10. This value indicates that each time 10 site records are updated in the batch job those site records are saved in the Siebel database.

If the value for this system preference is 10, if 92 site records must be updated in the batch job, and if a failure occurs during the job run, then the result of the batch job is that the number of site records saved to the Siebel database is a multiple of 10 (for example, 60 site records), and not 0 site records. If you run the batch job again, then only the remaining 32 updated site records are saved in the Siebel database.

CL-Disable CRF creation

This setting helps the user to decide whether the CTMS application should create the CRF records, when the Subject is set for Scheduled.

The user can set the value to either Y or N.

If the value is set to Y, the system won't create the CRF records during scheduling of the Subject. If the value is set to N, the system creates the CRF records during Subject scheduling.

The default value must be set to N.

CL- Enable C1 integration

This setting helps the user to decide whether the CTMS application is integrated with Clinical One application.

The user can set the value to either Y or N.

If the value is set to Y, it means that the CTMS application is integrated with Clinical One application. If the value is set to N, it means there's no integration.

The default value must be set to N.
