Updated Feature: Status Summary Export Now Includes Dates of sIRB Submission, Review and Approval, if available

Two new fields were added to the Status Summary Export – “Date Submitted” to the sIRB and “Date Reviewed” by the sIRB. The Export already includes “Date Approved” by the sIRB. These additional fields can be used by Study Managers as a flag/reminder that a site has been submitted for review to the sIRB. The sIRB or SM can enter dates of sIRB submission and review in the “site approvals” dialogue.

Updated Feature: Local Considerations Complete Notification Now Includes Outstanding Steps

In May we added “Complete Agreements” to the Relying HRPP Getting Started checklist. This feature allows sites to document and complete local considerations while their legal counsel is reviewing and executing any outstanding agreements, if needed. Sites are not allowed to document reliance or cede review until the agreements are complete, but, if a site completes local considerations before their agreements are complete, we now include in the email any outstanding steps that should be completed before the site is submitted to the sIRB for review, such as “Complete Agreements” or “Cede Review”.
