Activate/Inactivate form
In the EDC application, case report forms (CRFs) are a mechanism you use to collect study data. You use forms to enter, correct, or update data for the subject visit.
The functionality to activate or inactivate CRFs helps you manage the data entry and amendment process by temporarily making some forms unavailable for users and then enabling data entry again as per your business scenario.
Important
If all the forms in a visit are inactivated, the visit becomes disabled automatically.
You can also disable a visit by deactivating all the forms for that subject visit.
