About Data Extract

Data Extract consists of activities to create and maintain Data Extract Views, as well to create SAS pass-through views and SAS datasets based on these views. You define your Data Extract Views in the Definition subsystem, and you extract data from the Conduct subsystem.

Data Extract Views are Oracle RDBMS view definitions that allow you to access the data stored in Oracle Clinical in the same way you would access any other data stored in an Oracle database. A view is a database object that you can query like a database table. You can query Oracle Clinical's views with any data query tool that can access Oracle tables— for instance, Oracle's Discoverer or Oracle Reports.

See the Oracle Clinical Creating a Study guide for design information, and the Oracle Clinical Conducting a Study for runtime information.
