Clinical Reporting Application Workspace

Introduction

The Clinical Reporting Application Workspace contains tabbed report sections that organize the content of a report template. The tabs that display in the Workspace are defined by the report definition that is currently loaded.

Using Design Manager, the System Administrator can configure:

  • Tab names and tab order
  • Report sections and fields contained within a tab

Administrators also set dependency rules for tabs based on specific user roles and privileges. Dependency rules govern the data that is available to various system users. While data is imported and saved in the Synapse database, it might not be readily available to everyone using the system.

Report sections can have controls and functions which are accessible in the report Workspace. Controls are used to capture and present data in a report.

Using the Workspace Shortcut Menu

Introduction

Use the Workspace shortcut menu to show, hide, or highlight a labeled field in a final report. When controls are configured to be hidden in the report Preview, they still display in the report Workspace. You can view them in an on-screen Preview or in a printed report.

You can still enter data into a control that is not configured for display in the report Preview. This data is saved when the report is saved and is available for inclusion in another report for the current study.

Steps

  1. Right-click the Workspace field or the group label to view the shortcut menu.
    The shortcut menu only displays when you right-click a field or group label. It does not display if you right-click within a field or a list.
  2. Select one of the following, applicable shortcut menu options described in this table.
  3. Shortcut Menu Item

Repositioning Workspace Tabs

Introduction

You can reposition the Workspace tabs. Changes made to the Workspace tab order are user and report-template specific and will not impact the Workspace tab order for another user.

Steps

  1. Hover the mouse over the tab that you want to reposition. The tab color changes to yellow indicating the tab is selected.
  2. Click, hold, and drag the selected tab to the preferred location.

Results

The next time you generate a report using the current template, the Workspace displays the new tab order. Other users will see either the default positions or their own customized tab positions.
