Enable/Disable AI autotranslation

In EDC, when handling multilingual studies, you can decide on the global (study) level if you want the AI-driven autotranslation to be performed for your collected data. If enabled, all the data collected via CRFs is autotranslated by the system using AI, and then the respective task is created for the personnel in charge to perform the translation review. If disabled, your study personnel has to translate the data manually while performing review.

To enable or disable the AI autotranslation
  1. In the EDC application header, select the STUDY INFO tab.

  2. On the page that opens, in the left pane, select Translation > Translation Setting.

    • Turn on the AI Auto Translate toggle to enable the autotranslation of the CRF data using the AI. If enabled, the functionality to autotranslate texts in bulk becomes available for the study; the dedicated personnel has to only check and amend the autotranslated texts when performing their review tasks.
