Description

person:clinicaltrialname

The code of the current study.

person:trialsite

The site code of the current subject

person:personid

The integer identifier assigned to the current subject. The identifier is unique within the study and site.

person:subjectidentifier

The text identifier assigned to the current subject during registration. If your study does not use registration, this will always be blank.

person:country

The name of the country to which the current site belongs. The site's country is specified when a site is created in the System Management module.

user:username

The full name of the currently logged-on user.

user:userrole

The user role of the currently logged-on user.

It is not suitable to use this expression in a "Collect if" condition, as the value will change as different users log on and open eForms which may result in fields becoming disabled and deleted. The best way of ensuring that questions can only be answered by users with specific roles is to add authorisation.

Examples

1. If you want to disable certain eForms until a subject has been registered, you can use the condition

isknown( person:subjectidentifier )

as an internal trigger on the relevant eForms.

 

2. If you want to enable certain questions for certain sites only, you can use the current site in a question's Collect if condition. For example, setting the condition to be

person:trialsite = 'darwin'

would enable the question only at the site Darwin.

Similarly, you could disable an eForm for a particular site, using the following condition as an internal trigger

person:trialsite <> 'perth'

 

3. You can use person:trialsite and person:country as question derivation expressions to display the current site and country on an eForm.
