Dictionaries management using the Console self-service options

The Dictionary Loader and the MedDRA Recode options under Dictionary Management can be used as an alternative to the Dictionary Management Client/Server tool. The Dictionary Loader self-service option provides one screen to load all the dictionaries.

The Dictionary Loader option is used to load and overwrite MedDRA, MedDRA J, WHODrug Global and Chinese, and J Drug dictionaries from Argus Console.

A new user and schema are automatically created for every new dictionary load in this self-service mode.

The MedDRA Recode option is used to recode the cases that were already coded with a prior MedDRA version to the latest MedDRA version configured in the System Configuration.

The Dictionary Loader and the MedDRA Recode menu options are available for users logged in only through the default enterprise and who belong to a user group that has the Dictionary Loader and the MedDRA Recode options enabled under Access Management, in the Groups window, in the Menu section.

The Dictionary Loader and the MedDRA Recode pages are asynchronous, once the loading is initiated, you can move to other windows.

The logs are available for download from the self-service page.

Note:

The dictionary load is done using the Relsys Windows service. So, the Dictionary Loading requires that the RelsysWindowsService.exe.config is updated with the database details as in the Oracle Argus Safety and Oracle Insight Installation Guide.
