Dear reader,
The EDC of ResearchManager is being updated to version 7.8. Please find below the list of added functionalities and improvements. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about the update. For inquiries, please email us at support@myresearchmanager.com.
New
- eConsent
Note: This functionality is not enabled by default. If you would like to use eConsent, please contact support@myresearchmanager.com.
The eConsent functionality is now available in EDC. With eConsent, participants can electronically sign documents—such as informed consent forms—using a validated digital signature.
This feature is enabled through our integration with ValidSign.
For more information about eConsent, please contact our support team or your account manager.
Bug fixes:
- When selecting “missing” in a date-time component, a previously entered value (if present) remained visible until the subsection was reopened. This value is now cleared immediately as expected.
- When you disabled the Missing icon checkbox and navigated to another page, no warning appeared indicating that changes had not been saved. This issue has been resolved, and the warning now appears correctly.
- A query appeared in the export that was no longer visible in the system because the underlying conditional field disappeared after the researcher changed an answer. As a result, the monitor could not close the query. Such queries are now automatically marked as hidden in the Remarks column of the CRF Query Export.
- During participant import, the error message “Object reference not set to an instance of an object” frequently occurred. This happened when new participants were created in the CRF during the import. This issue has now been fixed.
- When exporting queries for a selected group of participants, the resulting Excel file contained no queries, even though queries were present within that group. This issue has been resolved, and the corresponding queries are now correctly included in the export.
