Examples of Organization Design

Following are several examples of ways to organize Domains, child Domains, Application Areas and libraries. You can use a combination of these approaches or design your own approach.

Examples 1 and 2 are alternative ways to organize data handling for a project that contains multiple studies and for which you need to report on each study separately as well as the project as a whole. The main advantage of Example 2: Project Domain with Reporting on Pooled Data is that you can report on the same data snapshot for all studies and for the project. The main advantage of Example 1: Project Domain with Reporting on Separately Stored Study Data is that you do not need a separate container for unblinded data at the end of the trial, saving space in the database.

Note:

You could follow the same procedures without using child Domains. The child Domains serve to organize the Application Areas, making it easier to browse.

• Example 1: Project Domain with Reporting on Separately Stored Study Data
  
• Example 2: Project Domain with Reporting on Pooled Data
  
• Example 3: Domain for Companywide Reports
  
• Example 4: Domain for Standard Definitions
  
• Example 5: Oracle Clinical Definitions
  
• Example 6: Domain for Cross-Project Analysis
  
• Example 7: Study or Project Template Domain
