Step 2: Add a trigger for a custom event

  1. At the bottom of the Project Explorer, click the Study Information (Study Information icon is a book with a magnifying glass.) button.
  2. In the Project Explorer in the InForm folder, open the Custom Events folder and select the custom event you want to work with.
  3. Select the Triggers & Results tab.
  4. Click New Trigger.
  5. Specify whether the trigger is a subject, a common visit, or a study object, and then choose an event.
    For example, you can select a subject action like a subject being enrolled or transferred to a new site, or a study object action like a visit being frozen or a form being source verified.
  6. Click the Event type drop-down list. If additional fields appear below the Event type field, make a selection and click OK.
  7. On the Triggers & Results tab, add triggers, if desired, and in the middle of the page, in the Logical operator field, select:
    • AND if you want the result to occur if all of the triggers are satisfied.
    • OR if you want the result to occur if any of the triggers is satisfied.
  8. Next, enter the data to export when the custom event is triggered.

    Tip:

    Oracle Central Designer allows you to create some study object triggers that are not currently supported in Oracle InForm. To save time, avoid creating the following unnecessary triggers:
    • Triggers created on special visits such as the Screening visit.
    • Triggers created on Screening or Enrollment special forms.
    • Triggers that are on conditional items and have the following event types:
      • Query state
      • Source Verified
      • Reason Incomplete Value Match
      • Comment Value Changed
    • Triggers that are on items in repeating sections and have the Source Verified event type.
    • Triggers that are on date time items and have the Value Match event type.
