Overview: Discrepancy interface

The Discrepancy Sampler is a sample application that demonstrates how to use the Oracle Life Sciences InForm Adapter Discrepancy interface to issue and update discrepancies on an Oracle Life Sciences InForm study, and get summary details of discrepancies by using reporting functions.

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.
