Subject attachments

If subject attachments are enabled, documents associated with a subject can be uploaded for storage in the subject’s CRF.

Note: It is essential that documents containing personally identifiable subject information are not uploaded.

The specification page will list details of the maximum file size allowed for an individual attachment and the remaining the space available for attachments.

Permissions

Every role with access to the subject view may download the attachments. Investigators can upload new attachments, and Administrators can delete existing attachments.

Uploading attachments

The subject record will have an Attachments section with a link to Upload an attachment. Following the link leads to the Attachments page for that subject, and a form where the file to be uploaded and an optional description can be specified.

Deleting an attachment

Administrators can delete existing attachments. To delete an attachment follow the Delete link from the table on the Attachments page. This leads to a confirmation page where clicking the Delete attachment button will remove the attachment from the subject’s CRF.

Note: Deleted attachments are removed from the filesystem so this action cannot be undone.
