Defining the Scope of the Records to be Changed

The parameters required to define the particular records to be changed vary, according to the type of change you select. All possible parameters are listed below:

DCM Name

From the LOV, choose the name of the DCM associated with the records you need to change. The LOV includes all DCMs defined for the study. This field is required for Response changes. For other types of mass changes you can enter either a DCM Name, a DCI Book, or both.

DCI Book

From the LOV, choose the name of the DCI Book associated with the records you need to change. The LOV includes all DCI Books defined for the study. This field is always optional.

Start Pg #

If you entered a value in the DCI Book field, you must also enter the first page of the DCI Book that is associated with the records you need to change.

Disc Type

If you need to change multiple records that have raised discrepancies of a certain type, choose the type from the LOV.

Max CDS Records

Enter the maximum number of records you want to change in this transaction. Limiting the size of the CDS before you create it can help avoid having the system labor excessively over a mistake in the selection criteria. The default value is set in the local reference codelist OCL_MC_PREFS; initially it is set to 1000.

Question Group Name

This field appears only for Response changes. From the LOV, choose the name of the question group that contains the question whose responses you need to correct. The LOV displays the names of all the question groups in the DCM you specified above.

Question Names

This field appears only for Response changes. There are four Question Names fields. Enter the name(s) of the questions whose responses you need to correct. You must enter a value in the first Question Names field or CDS creation will not work.
