Update eCOA user account

eCOA is a software application designed to run on mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets, enabling subjects or nurses to complete electronic Clinical Outcome Assessments (eCOA) through mobile devices. The eClinical EDC system has customizable configurations that facilitate integration with the eCOA mobile application, enabling real-time data collection.

In eClinical EDC, you have a feature to manage users of the eCOA application. The details of some eCOA user accounts may need to be modified due to personal information changes, new study requirements, account effective date updates, or enabling a user to enter data for new subjects.

Important

You can update the eCOA user account only if this account has not yet reached the deactivation date and is still in the Active account status.

To update the eCOA user account
  1. In the EDC application header, select the STUDY INFO tab.

  2. In the left pane of the page that opens, select eCOA > Subject Setting.
