What are the components of a coding map?

When you create a coding map, you specify:

  • An item to code.
  • One or more items that will receive code or term information from Oracle Central Coding.
  • One or more items that contain context information. Context information provides assistance to the person who codes the item.
  • A query target. When a Oracle Central Coding user creates a query, the query appears on the query target item in the Oracle Health Sciences InForm application.

If you select a query target item for a coding map, you can only deploy the study to a version of Oracle Health Sciences InForm that supports coding query targets. Only text items without codelists are available for Item to code and Target Item.
