ExternalMap
Purpose
A wrapper for the mappings for one control in an InForm study. The ExternalMap element can include:
- One Path element, which identifies the source control in the InForm study or signals the presence of mapping targets that have no corresponding control in the InForm study. For example:
- Columns to be created in a CDD that have no associated control on a CRF.
- Items that are common to all panels in a Clintrial protocol.
- Multiple elements that specify the target of each mapping.
Syntax
<EXTERNALMAP>
<PATH/>
<CDD* attributes/>
<CONTEXTPANEL* attributes/>
<CTPANEL* attributes/>
<CODINGMAP* attributes/>
</EXTERNALMAP>
Children
The ExternalMap element can include the following mapping definition elements:
Example
The following example illustrates the use of the ExternalMap element along with an unqualified Path element to define a set of mappings for items that are common to all panels in the CLIN1 mapping. Because the items are common, they do not correspond to a specific RefName path in the InForm study.
<EXTERNALMAP>
<PATH/>
<CONTEXTPANEL REFNAME="CLIN1">
<ITEM REFNAME="SUBJECT" ITEMDATATYPE="TEXT"
ITEMDATAMAXLENGTH="15" CONTEXTTYPE="1"/>
<ITEM REFNAME="VISITITEM" ITEMDATATYPE="TEXT"
ITEMDATAMAXLENGTH="15" CONTEXTTYPE="2"/>
<ITEM REFNAME="PAGEITEM" ITEMDATATYPE="TEXT"
ITEMDATAMAXLENGTH="15" CONTEXTTYPE="3"/>
</CONTEXTPANEL>
</EXTERNALMAP>
In the following example, the ExternalMap element defines the mapping from a control in an InForm study, specified by the Path element, to a table column in a CDD, specified by the CDD element.
<EXTERNALMAP>
<PATH>
<CHAPTERREF REFNAME="PF_ALL_VISITS"/>
<PAGEREF REFNAME="ECG"/>
<SECTIONREF REFNAME="CHESTXRAY"/>
<ITEMSETREF REFNAME="1"/>
<ITEMREF REFNAME="INTERPRET2"/>
<CONTROLREF REFNAME="INTERPRETRADIO2"/>
<CONTROLREF REFNAME="DESCRIBETEXT"/>
</PATH>
<CDD REFNAME="CDD1" KEYTYPE="PATIENT" TARGETTABLE="t_ECG"
TARGETKEYTYPE="PATIENTVISIT" TARGETCOLUMN="COMMONDAT1"
TARGETCOLUMNTYPE="TEXT"/>
</EXTERNALMAP>
In the following example, the ExternalMap element identifies the mappings for one verbatim in an InForm study, specified with the Path element, to be coded with the Central Coding application.
