Enable site-to-site shipments
In a clinical trial, sites are the locations where the subject treatment and item dispensation occur. To have enough items in the inventory, sites request shipments from the depots (the most common practice for clinical trials) or other sites if there is no depot involved in the study. In IWRS, you can either allow or restrict the site-to-site shipment relations for specific sites.
-
In the IWRS application header, select the SITE tab.
-
On the Site List page that opens, in the table, select the site code of your interest.

Turn the toggle on to allow the site to ship/receive items to/from other sites of your study.
-
Turn the toggle off to restrict the site-to-site form of shipment for this site.
