Planning reports
The Reporting and Analysis module makes clinical and trial management data available in a set of predefined reports and enables report designers to create unlimited custom reports. When designing your trial, keep in mind that both data and labels are available as objects that can be included in reports.
Therefore, make sure that the names you give to trial objects are meaningful and are the ones you want to appear in reports. For example, consider how you want your reports to show user, site, and group names. Be aware that design notes are available as reporting objects.
The value of the Itemset Column Header property of an item serves as the default short name for the field in the clinical reporting model.
Note: You should ensure that Itemset Column Header definitions are unique within a trial. If the Cognos reporting system finds duplicate Itemset Column Header values, it combines the items in reports.
For additional reporting considerations, see Reports.
