Set inventory check for visit
One of the dispensing visit configurations available in IWRS is setting the inventory checks to ensure that there are enough items in the site inventory to provide all the subjects at certain visits taking into account different patterns of subject randomization followed by the study.
The inventory check setting—as all the other dispensing visit configurations—is version-bound, meaning that once you implement a new setting, it is associated with the specific version and can be applied to the whole study or only certain sites or subjects. This helps maintain change history and satisfies international multisite studies, where different locations and subjects can follow their own dispensation settings.
