Using Profiles
In order to work in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window, you must have a valid profile. A profile is a named collection of access privileges and selection criteria. Profiles are set up by system administrators to control access to data in the discrepancy database. If you have the privileges necessary to modify the profile settings, you can use them as a filter for discrepancy queries. See Creating New Profiles for a list of query selection criteria available.
To open the Profiles dialog box, first open the Maintain Discrepancy Database window by accessing the Conduct menu, selecting Data Validation, and then selecting Discrepancy Database. The Profiles dialog box may open before you can access the Maintain Discrepancy Database window.
If either you or your administrator chooses a profile to be your default profile, you do not see the Profiles dialog box. If you want to open it, click the Profiles button in the Maintain Discrepancy Database window. To choose a profile as your default, select the Make This My Default Profile box in the lower-left corner of the Profiles dialog box.
Note:
Your group's administrator may prevent you from modifying your default profile. If so, the Profiles dialog box does not open when you click the Profiles button.
Your group's administrator may prevent you from accessing some fields by locking them in your profile configuration. Locked fields have gray backgrounds, and the label text of locked box fields is in italics.
Information on creating master profiles is included in the Oracle Clinical Administrator's Guide chapter on configuring Discrepancy Management.
