Publish dispensing visit setting version

In IWRS, the dispensing visit and window configurations are version-bound. This helps satisfy international multisite studies, where different locations and subjects can follow their own dispensation settings.

Publishing a version means saving it and making it available for the study site and subject upgrade. The unpublished version is considered a draft and can be renamed, new visits can be configured, or even deleted from the system. Whereas the published versions are finalized and permanent and cannot be amended or removed.

Important

When a new site is added to the study, it automatically follows the latest published version of dispensing visit and window settings.

To publish a dispensing visit setting version
  1. In the IWRS application header, select the TREATMENT DESIGN tab.

  2. From the left pane, select Visit Dispensing and Window.
