Navigation for Data Entry

Once you log into Vault CDMS, Vault shows the Study, Site, or Casebook listing page, depending on your permissions.

Listing Pages

Vault EDC uses three standard listing pages: Casebook, Site, and Study. All three listing pages are inside the Data Entry tab. Once you open the data entry area, which listing page appears first depends on how many studies and sites you have access to. The Studies and Sites listings pages include all Study and Study Site records you have access to. If you have access to more than one study, you’ll see the Study listing page under the Data Entry tab. You can then click into a Study or use the breadcrumb menu to enter the Site listing page, and then click on a Site to open the Casebook listing page.

If you only have access to one Study, the Data Entry tab defaults to the Site listing page. If you can only access one site, the Data Entry tab opens the Casebook listing page.

Casebook Listing

The Casebook listing page provides a list view of all subjects at a particular site. To view the Casebook listing page, open the Data Entry tab.

For each subject casebook, Vault displays the Subject ID, Last Event Date, Next Event Date, Subject Status, and the Review for Signature requirement.

Casebook Listing Page

Site Listing

If you have access to more than one site, you can use the Site listing page. Vault opens to the Site listing page automatically if you don’t have access to more than one Study. You can return to the Site listing page by clicking the Home icon in the breadcrumb menu in the Data Entry tab. The Site listing page provides a list view of all Sites you have access to in a particular Study. When you navigate to the Site listing page, typically through the breadcrumb menu, Vault EDC displays a grid view of the following information:

  • Site Number
  • Site Name
  • Principal Investigator
  • Subjects
  • Site Status

Site Listing Page

The Last Event Date column displays the last Event with an Event Date. Clicking the Last Event Date value opens the first form in that event.

The Subjects column is a count of all subjects at this particular site. Clicking on this value opens the Casebook listing page.

Study Listing

If you have access to more than one study, you can use the Study listing page. Vault opens to the Study listing page, and you can return to this page by clicking the Home icon in the breadcrumb menu in the Data Entry tab. The Study listing page provides a list view of all studies associated with a Site. The Study listing page displays the following information:

  • Study Number
  • Study Phase (from study_phase__v)
  • Screen Failed %
  • Study Status

Vault calculates the Screen Failed % value by dividing the number of Subjects (casebooks) where the Subject Status is Screen Failure (screen_failure__v) by the total number of Subjects in the Study.

Search for a Subject

Vault EDC uses a powerful search engine to help you find object records in your vault. You can perform basic searches from the primary search bar, as well as choosing from type-ahead search results. In the current release, you can only search for Subjects in your vault.

Search for Subjects

Searching in Vault EDC allows you to perform simple queries by searching within object record fields.
