Planning Data Structures

If you are creating a Load Set adapter and your source data system has fixed data structures, you can define Tables in your Adapter Area with the same structure.

See Call the Create Table API. You then write your adapter code to create Load Set Table Descriptors based on those Tables rather than requiring connection to the remote database or requiring manual definition by users.

The Oracle Clinical Load Set adapters that import data from fixed Oracle Clinical tables do this, including Design and Definition, Labs, Randomization, and Study Data.
