Complete an unscheduled dispensation visit

You can dispense kits containing an investigational product, Unblinded Pharmacist kits, devices, perform dose changes or converse and confirm the dispensation of kits, but you can't randomize subjects during an unscheduled visit.

For more information on how to handle reference information during the process of collecting data, as well as tips and tricks on how to answer certain question types, see Best practices for collecting data.

Note:

  • If you enter data that doesn't meet the requirements specified by the sponsor in the form fields, a message explains why the answer does not meet the required criteria. If the question is marked as required, you can't randomize or dispense until it is answered. If the question isn't marked as required, you can randomize or dispense without answering.
  • When the visit contains a two-section form, if you completed all of the required questions in the first section of the form and there are no table rows added to the section section of the form, then the two-section form is considered complete. If you completed all of the required questions in the first section of the form, but there are any incomplete rows in the table section of the form, then the two-section form is considered incomplete.
  • To view dosing instructions, run the Kit Dispensation report. For more information, see Kit Dispensation report.
