version information
Protocols are versioned by the system anytime protocols are returned to the researcher and resubmitted to the IRB office. If a protocol attachment is replaced during resubmission of the protocol, the system will create a version of the protocol attachment. Within the Attached Items, the system will display for each version of the protocol attachment, the name of the user who last updated the attachment, the date the attachment was created, the date it was last modified on and a description for the attachment..
The system will allow only the current version of the protocol attachment to be opened through the Protocol Attachments section. To view older versions of the protocol attachment, go to Protocol Actions/Summary&History/Summary and navigate to the previous sequence of the protocol to view the older protocol attachment. |
