Defining Links for the Patient Summary Reports

You can define a maximum of three links for the Links section of a Patient Summary Report. These links have a scope of Patient.

To define a link for the Patient Summary Report:

1. Log in to the RDC Administration application.
2. Select Maintain, and then select Links.
3. Insert or modify a row in the Maintain Links form to have these settings:
   • Seq# — You can define up to three links for the Patient Summary Report. Sequence the Patient-scope rows so they have the same sequence that you prefer in the report's Links section.
   • Link Text — Enter the link label.
   • URL — Enter the URL if you are defining a static link; enter the name of the function if you are defining a dynamic link.
   • Type — Select either Static or Dynamic. (See Specifying the Type of Link for more information.)
   • Scope — Select Patient.
   • Use PT/CRF Link in Onsite — Enable this check box. You can select up to three rows with a scope of Patient.
4. Save your changes.
5. Create a target Web page or JavaServer page referred to by the static URL, or the dynamic return value of the function you specified.

Parameters for a Patient Link

Use scope type Patient to create links for the Patient Summary Report.

• For a static link of scope Patient, RDC appends the following parameter values from the user's session to the URL:

  ?userid=userid&user_role=user_role&test_prod=test_prod &study_id=study_id&study=study&site_id=site_id&site=site &patient_id=patient_id&patient=patient

• For a dynamic link of scope Patient, RDC passes the following parameter values from the user's session to the function:

  pHeader, pScope, pUserId, pUserRole, pTestProd, pStudyId, pStudy, pSiteId, pSite, pPatientId, pPatient

See the Link Parameters section for a description of each parameter.

Example 11-4 Static Patient Link

Configure a static link of scope Patient for the following URL:

https://mycompany.com/patient.jsp

When data manager JSMITH, who is viewing patient 101 of in-production study PDFREPORT at site 001, clicks on the link in the Patient Summary Report, RDC invokes the following URL:

https://mycompany.com/patient.jsp?userid=jsmith &user_role=dm&test_prod=p&study_id=28601&study=pdfreport &site_id=4501&site=001&patient_id=100001&patient=101
