Organize kits by block numbers

Now, when they define their kit lists, clinical supply managers can now organize kits by block numbers.

Organizing kits by block numbers allows you to protect your kits that are prone to breakage and need to be packaged together. With the new option for block numbers, you can meet the distribution vendors' needs by sending kit data as a whole unit, not for each individual kit.

Details for clinical supply managers

Here's what's new for you:

• On the Kits tab, when you upload a kit list, you can now map the Block Number imported header to the appropriate value, whether it's Don't Import or Block Number.
• On the Shipments tab, when you create a shipment, a kit type may describe its block size. For example, a placebo kit type may indicate that the block size for this kit type is 4 units.
• When you create a new shipment, if you add a number of kits that is lower than its block size, the system adds additional kits to complete the block. For example, if you include 2 placebo kits in a shipment, the system includes 2 additional kits to complete the block of 4 units.
• On the Study Inventory page, there is a new column called Block. On this column, the system indicates how many units are included in a block for each kit.
