Edit data element
In CTMS, you can edit a data element in a dictionary. You may require editing a data element if it represents wrong information, has an error, requires change due to updated protocol requirements, and so on.
Important
You can only edit the data elements manually added by users. The data elements predefined in the system by administrators cannot be modified.
