Use a study template

A study template is a study that you can copy to another study so that its clinical data models, transformations, and validation check batches become part of the new study. InForm input models are not included in the template.

Note:

You can apply only one study template to a study.

In the new study you can:

  • Delete or modify template models, tables, transformations, or validation checks.

  • In transformations, mark tables and columns in target models as Not Used.

  • Copy or create additional models, tables, transformations, and validation checks. If two components of the same type have the same name, the system appends "_1" to the name of the second component added.
