Delete shipment alert

A shipment refers to an action of transporting items (drugs) between depots and sites. A shipment alert is a customizable notification mechanism that generates an email to inform relevant parties about the details requested for a shipment when a certain shipment transaction is processed.

The purpose of a shipment alert is to promptly notify the responsible IWRS users about the shipment-related transactions. However, any of the configured shipment alerts may need to be deleted due to updates in the shipment transaction process or other evolving study requirements.

To delete a shipment alert

  1. In the IWRS application header, select the ALERT tab.

  2. In the left pane of the page that appears, select Shipment Alert.
