Edit the text of multiple discrepancies

You can edit the text of up to 20 discrepancies at one time, provided that they did not originate from InForm or an external source.

To edit discrepancy text, you must first select a study and navigate to the Discrepancies interface. For more information on these topics, please see Select a study from the Home page, Select a study from Study Manager, or Use the Discrepancy Dashboard. You can also navigate to the Discrepancies interface by clicking Data Management > Discrepancies from the toolbar on the top of the screen.
  1. After filtering the discrepancies to your preferences using the options in the left panel, select multiple discrepancies from the grid. To select adjacent rows, press Shift as you click rows (or press the down arrow key). To select nonadjacent rows, press Ctrl as you click rows.
  2. From Manage Discrepancies, select the Edit Discrepancy Text option. The number of selected discrepancies is displayed in parentheses after Edit Discrepancy Text.

    Note:

    You can also right-click the group of selected discrepancies in the grid to display a context menu where the Edit Discrepancy Text is an available option.
    A pop up window is displayed where you can enter text that is applied to all selected discrepancies.
  3. Click Save to apply the new text to the selected discrepancies.
