Filtering Discrepancy Information

You can also use the Change Layout utility to filter the discrepancies displayed. You can use the following fields as filters: Patient, Visit, Subevent, DCM Name, Review Status, DCF ID, CRF Page, and Investigator.

The Change Layout window has two sections: Master and Detail. (see the image below). Items listed in the Master section are displayed in the upper panel of the Maintain Discrepancy Database window and act as a filter for the discrepancies displayed. Only discrepancies whose value matches the value of the first item listed in the Master section are displayed. If there is a second item listed in the Master section, its value is used as a secondary filter, and so on.

For example, if you've moved the Patient item to the Master section and set its value to Patient 001, the system displays only discrepancies associated with Patient 001. If Visit is the second item listed in the Master section, and its value is set to Visit 6, only discrepancies associated with Patient 001 and Visit 6 are displayed.

To change the order in which the discrepancy detail columns are arranged:

  1. In the multi-record view of the Maintain Discrepancy Database window, click the Change Layout button.

    The Change Layout window opens (see the image below). The Detail section lists all the items in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window.

  2. Use the Left and Right arrows to move items between the Master and Detail section. (All items are in the Detail section of an unmodified layout.) The system grays out the Left and Right arrows if you select an item in the Detail section that is not allowed in the Master section.

    Note:

    Be sure to finish Step 2 before proceeding to Step 3. If you need to start over, click Back and then close the Maintain Discrepancy Database window as well, then come back.

  3. Use the Up and Down arrows to adjust the order of the items. The topmost item appears leftmost in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window. The second item displayed in the Details section appears second to the left in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window, and so on.

    The Detail section affects only the order of display in the lower panel of the Maintain Discrepancy Database window.

    The Master section affects both the display of the upper panel of the Maintain Discrepancy Database window and the information displayed; only discrepancies whose values match the values of the items in the upper panel are displayed.

  4. Click OK to save your changes or click Back to return without saving your changes.

    You return to the Maintain Discrepancy Database window. If you clicked OK, the system refreshes the view of the window to reflect the changes you made.

    Note:

    If you change studies or change profiles, Oracle Clinical resets the Maintain Discrepancy Database window to the default display; it places all items in the Detail section.
