Open new query
In the context of CRF design, a query refers to a formal request or notification raised by the study team regarding a specific data-related concern or discrepancy. In the Study Designer application, while the study team configures the forms, if they encounter inconsistencies or data-related questions, they can create queries to draw attention to these issues and seek clarification or resolution from fellow team members or a sponsor.
