Compliance

The Compliance group on the Maintenance menu houses links to maintenance documents that are used to create and maintain database table records that are used by the IRB functional module in the KC system. The data values in these maintenance documents are made available for use in e-docs such as the Protocol document and the Committee document. Within a standard e-doc, lookup and dropdown list fields exist in sections that allow for the searching for and selecting of data value options that are maintained using these maintenance documents to populate them when preparing and completing the e-doc.

Lookup/Create New Concept: Typically, maintenance document links (bullet list of underlined text within labeled group boxes on the Maintenance menu) take you by default to Lookup screens that contain a create new button at the top, right of the screen. The lookup screen is used to optionally enter and/or select search criteria and then click a search button to retrieve existing records in a search result table below the search criteria area of the screen. The search result table contains an Action column at left that then allows you to take actions such as edit to access the existing maintenance document. To create a new maintenance document, clicking the create new button allows you to initiate and display a new, blank maintenance document.
