Roadmap: Study set up and user management
Setting up a study requires actions from different IRT users:
- The Drug Supply Manager reviews and approves the drug schedule.
- A Statistician reviews and approves the randomization schedule.
- A Study Manager, CRA, or Field Monitor adds and manages countries, regions, and users.

Randomization Schedule
Approving the drug and randomization schedules are the critical first steps in preparing the study.
After the drug schedule is approved, drug units can be associated with depots, assigned lot numbers, added to label groups, and shipped to sites.
After the randomization schedule is approved, subjects can be randomized into the study. Subjects must be randomized before they can participate in a study.
