How do sections impact my RDE?

The structure of a Report Data Extract (RDE) is impacted by the design of your study. Some considerations for using sections include, but are not limited to:

• For a form with more than one regular, non-repeating section, the RDE contains one row for each section per subject and visit combination.
• For a form with a single regular, non-repeating section, the RDE contains one row for each subject and visit combination.
• If you download an RDE as a set of SAS datasets, the RDE contains a separate SAS dataset for each form and repeating section combination.

  For example, for a form that contains a regular, non-repeating section and a repeating section, the RDE includes two datasets; one of the non-repeating section, and one for the repeating section.
