Overview: Discrepancy interface

The Discrepancy interface sends discrepancies (clinical queries) and their resolutions between the Oracle InForm software and other systems or modules.

  • For a study, site, subject, or list of subjects, you can retrieve discrepancies of a specific type, or retrieve a count of discrepancies in the form of [Subject, State, Guid].
  • For an item, you can issue a candidate or open discrepancy, retrieve all discrepancies, or retrieve discrepancies of a specific type.
  • For a discrepancy, or list of discrepancies identified by a GUID, you can answer or close a discrepancy, delete a candidate discrepancy, reissue an answered discrepancy, and retrieve discrepancy details.
  • You can close a set of answered discrepancies in a single transaction.
  • The Discrepancy interface can determine whether the requested target of a discrepancy maps to another item, and issue the discrepancy against the mapped (target) item.
