Bug Fixed – October 7, 2019
Fixed: Error in Institutional Profile showing HTML code
Bug Fixes – August 30, 2019
| Fixed: The key for deciphering the different “Reliance Decision” status has been fixed. | 
| Fixed: When a study expires, it will now display “Expired” on the Reviewing IRB and Participating Site HRPP Dashboards (instead of “No Outstanding Actions”). | 
Bug Fixes – July 29, 2019
| Fixed: IREx “Users” can now view studies where a component of their FWA is participating. | 
| Fixed: The “Resources” link in the Study Manager welcome email was updated. | 
| Fixed: The Local Considerations export now labels the component site folder using the FWA “short name” and the component site “short name” (e.g., North Univ Med Ctr– North Childrens Hosp”). | 
Bug Fixes – June 28, 2019
| Fixed: IREx behaved erratically when users accessed it via Internet Explorer (IE), so the platform was updated to more compatible with IE. | 
| Fixed: When uploading a relying site’s approvals, dates of submission, review and approval are required. IREx was requiring the dates, but not telling Study Managers which sites were missing dates. | 
System Enhancements – May 31, 2019
| Enhanced: IREx requires a determination letter and consent forms (if applicable) be uploaded as part of the Relying Site Approvals. However, IREx also allows for “Other” documents. Study Managers (SMs) can add a label to name the type of document they are uploading. Customizing the types of documents allows for greater specificity and helps better group the documents. | 
| Enhanced: When a PSite finishes documenting their local considerations for a study, IREx automatically notifies the SM and sIRB. We updated the text of this email to include language that the SM should pre-screen the information provided in the surveys to ensure the right type of information is provided. If any changes are needed, they can request the PSite edit the local considerations in IREx. The SM and sIRB will also be notified when updates are made. | 
Bug Fixes – May 31, 2019
| Fixed: The load time was improved for studies. | 
| Fixed: The PDF for Institutional Profiles generated too small when large amounts of text were entered for a question. It now generates in the correct format for printing. | 
System Enhancements – April 2, 2019
| Enhanced: IRB liaisons can click the components button to see which studies their FWA components are listed on. As a reminder, liaisons can add and remove FWA components at any time as long as they are not listed on an existing study. | 
| Enhanced: We have improved our user interface to speed up the study page load time for larger studies with several participating sites. | 
System Enhancements – March 26, 2019
| Enhanced: We have added a new Complete Agreements step to the Relying HRPP Getting Started Checklist that will show what agreements are required to rely on the Reviewing IRB for the study. Relying HRPP Liaisons will need to complete the required agreements before they can indicate reliance for a study. | 
| Enhanced: We have added clarification text to the Complete IREx Setup window to clarify which local considerations module to use when a study does not require consent forms. |
