Group and Form Validation

When a repeating DCM question group is defined, the Maximum Number Of Repeats Expected configuration parameter is set automatically. In addition, the Enforce Max Repeats flag can also be set to indicate if Oracle Clinical should enforce that specified maximum during data entry. If you try to enter more records than the number specified, Oracle Clinical either prevents entry or warns you, depending on how the Enforce Max Repeats flag is set.

Before you can save the data, Oracle Clinical performs several form-wide checks for the following conditions:

• All mandatory fields either have values or an associated mandatory discrepancy.

• In second-pass entry, all fields containing data in first-pass have data entered in second-pass.

  You cannot complete second-pass entry until this criterion is met.
