SequenceType

Purpose

Defines the types of entities for which the InForm application generates sequential numbers. When you create a definition of the numerical sequence by using the Sequence element, you specify a type to which the sequence belongs by including a SequenceType definition. The InForm software defines the following types of sequence numbers:

Syntax

<SEQUENCETYPE
   [UUID="id"]
    SEQUENCETYPENAME="name"/>

Attributes

UUID="id"

Universally Unique Identifier; a string that identifies the component uniquely across all studies, study databases, and machines. Optional.

SEQUENCETYPENAME="name"

Name of the sequence type. Required.

Example

The following SequenceType definitions create the base sequence types used in the InForm software:

<SEQUENCETYPE SEQUENCETYPENAME="Enrollment"/>
<SEQUENCETYPE SEQUENCETYPENAME="Screening"/>
<SEQUENCETYPE SEQUENCETYPENAME="Query"/>
<SEQUENCETYPE SEQUENCETYPENAME="Randomization"/>
