New Feature: Reviewing IRBs can now upload additional documents to share with sites

Reviewing IRBs can now indicate in the IREx Setup if they’d liked to provide additional documents to help facilitate the site’s local submission process. This question is found on the SIRB Instructions tab of the IREx Setup and defaults to ‘No.’ If selecting ‘Yes,’ the Reviewing IRB will be required to upload additional documents and a new ‘Documents’ tab will appear on the study page for all users to access the additional documents.

New Feature: New steps added to the Reviewing IRB Getting Started Checklist

Reviewing IRBs now have a ‘Request Agreements’ step on their Getting Started Checklist when selecting ‘sIRB only’ in the study setup for whom can use IREx to send instructions for executing the required agreements. Reviewing IRBs will also have a new ‘Manage Agreements’ step on their checklist if there are sites with incomplete agreements listed on the study – when clicked, the Manage Agreements dialog will open for the Reviewing IRB to enter executed agreements for relying sites. 

New Feature: Allow to resend ‘Request Agreements’ notification

Reviewing IRBs and Study Managers can resend the Request Agreements notification to sites with incomplete agreements. From the Status Summary’s Agreement column, use the drop down and press ‘Request Agreements’ to resend a notification. The button and pop-up will show the last date the request agreement notification was sent for the site.
