Set Your User Preferences

The User Profile screen stores the minimum required information necessary for you to use Oracle Life Sciences ClearTrial Cloud Service.

  1. On the Start screen, click your name in the upper right of the menu bar.
  2. Select View My User Profile.
  3. Click Edit Profile, then make changes as necessary to the User Preferences fields:
    • Login Name—Only the System Administrator can change this.
    • First Name, Last Name—You can edit these.
    • Email Address—Update your email address if necessary. If you forget your password, you must supply this email address to reset it.
    • Security Question, Security Answer—Select a security question from the list and supply the answer. ClearTrial uses the question and answer for authentication purposes if you need to recover your password.
    • Preferred Edit Mode— Your selection controls how many clinical assumptions are displayed per tab in the plan. The tabs and set of clinical assumptions included vary by edit mode.
      • Quick mode—Includes the minimal required number of clinical assumptions a user has to enter to create a quick, ballpark budget. In Quick mode, some assumptions are hidden and ClearTrial defaults are used in your forecast.
      • Basic mode—Includes more assumptions than provided in Quick mode at every level. All tabs are enabled for you to accept or override the defaults.
      • Advanced mode—Includes the majority of clinical assumptions.
      • Expert mode—Includes all clinical assumptions. Use this mode when you have detailed specifications about how you plan to conduct the study and are ready to prepare a Request for Proposal, bid on a project, or submit a budget to Management for review and approval.

      Tip:

      If you change your preferred edit mode after setting some assumptions, Oracle recommends only changing it to a higher mode so that you can continue to view and edit all the assumptions from the previous mode.
    • Preferred Home Page—This is the screen that you have specified to appear after you log in. You can choose between various list screens, depending on what screen you plan on starting with or visiting most frequently.
    • Preferred Locale—Locale determines how dates and numbers are displayed and interpreted in the application. Use this setting to override your computer settings.
