Manage shipments
- View the shipments sent to sites
If you're troubleshooting an issue with shipments or inventory, you might need to see the shipments that have been sent to sites. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Add and remove kits in a shipment
You typically add and remove kits in a shipment when something happens to a kit that was selected for the shipment. For example, when a kit is damaged before it is packed, you can replace it with another kit of the same type. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - View a drug order form
A drug order form (also known as a DOF, kit order form, or shipment order form) is a document that presents all details of a shipment requested during a clinical study. - Create a manual shipment
Create a manual shipment if a source depot is in need of supplies or if a site anticipates an enrollment surge, such as for a clinic day, and requires additional supply. You shouldn't need to create a manual shipment for any other situations. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Specify a ship date and tracking number for a shipment
You must specify a ship date and tracking number for every shipment, with one exception: If the study uses an integration with Almac or Fisher Clinical Services for shipments, you should not perform these steps. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Mark a shipment as lost
When a shipment gets lost in transit, you can mark the shipment as lost so that all kits in the shipment are also marked as missing. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Cancel a shipment
You can cancel a shipment with a status of Pending, Invalid, Confirmed, In Transit, or Pending Destruction. If the study uses an integration with Almac for shipments, you must cancel every shipment with a status of Invalid; otherwise, a new shipment won't be created the next time inventory runs. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Check whether a shipment was marked invalid
If the study uses an integration with Almac for shipments, you need to check whether a shipment was marked invalid so you can confirm whether the depot received the shipment request. This procedure also applies to rollover studies. - Disallow temperature excursions for shipments
Mark kits in a shipment as Missing or Damaged when you choose not to allow temperature excursions in your study. - Quarantine a shipment with temperature excursions
Mark shipments in your study as Quarantined when they've experienced temperature excursions. - Quarantine shipments set to Quarantine with no temperature monitor
Depending on your study settings, the system will quarantine shipments or ask you to update the status for individual kits. - Move shipments through the receipt process with no temperature monitors
If your study is configured to move shipments through the receipt process when there are no temperature monitors included, you will be prompted to mark any damaged or missing kits. - Release kits or shipments from quarantine
Mark kits and shipments as Damaged or Available by releasing them from quarantine.
