SignCRF

Purpose

Identifies forms that require signature and specifies which signature group a user must belong to in order to be able to sign the CRF.

Syntax

<SIGNCRF
    SIGNATUREGROUPNAME="name"
    FORMREFNAME="name"
    [RESETFORMSTATE="true|false"]
    [INVALIDATIONLEVEL="USER|GROUP"]
    [FINALCRF="true|false"]/>

Attributes

SIGNATUREGROUPNAME="name"

RefName of a signature group that contains users who are authorized to sign the form specified in the FORMREFNAME attribute. Required.

FORMREFNAME="name"

RefName of a CRF that must be signed by a user who is a member of the SignatureGroup specified in the SIGNATUREGROUPNAME attribute. Required.

Note:

The Screening and Enrollment CRFs are not intended to be signed. Do not include their RefNames in a SignCRF definition.

RESETFORMSTATE="true|false"

Indicates whether associating a new signature group with a CRF that is fully signed resets the state of the CRF to not fully signed. When a CRF is reset, the original signatures remain valid. However, the CRF must now be signed by a member of the newly-associated signature group as well. False is the default. Optional.

INVALIDATIONLEVEL="USER|GROUP"

Specifies at what level a signature will be invalidated only when a data item is imported from Oracle Central Coding after the CRF has been signed. Optional.

The options are:
  • USER—The CRF or case book signature is invalidated if the user who signed can view the item being imported.
  • GROUP—The CRF or case book signature is invalidated if at least one user in the signature group can view the item being imported.

Note:

This attribute only acts on data items imported from Oracle Central Coding. Any other edits made directly to data items in Oracle InForm will still invalidate the signature.

FINALCRF="true|false"

Indicates whether signing the form specified in the FORMREFNAME attribute signs entire the case book. False is the default. Optional.

Example 2-11

The following example illustrates the use of the SignCRF element to designate the DEM, VS, and SC forms as requiring signature by a member of the CRA Signature group. The FINALCRF attribute indicates that signing the SC form signs the case report book.

<SIGNCRF SIGNATUREGROUPNAME="CRA Signature" FORMREFNAME="DEM"/>
<SIGNCRF SIGNATUREGROUPNAME="CRA Signature" FORMREFNAME="VS"
    INVALIDATIONLEVEL="USER"/>
<SIGNCRF SIGNATUREGROUPNAME="CRA Signature" FORMREFNAME="SC"
    FINALCRF="true"/>
