Export normal range data

In EDC, the setup and maintenance of normal ranges are performed under the Site Normal Range subtab.

Sometimes, for some reason, you might need to have the normal range data locally on your machine. For example, to pass it to a person/institution that has no access to the Lab feature of the EDC application.

Another reason for exporting normal ranges can be editing them in the XLSX format and then importing the updated version to the EDC application.

In EDC, you have different exporting options as explained in the following sections.
