Manual Product Disposition

Recommended for products NOT being assigned to a subject.

Step 1:  From the Study landing page, click on Products in the Product Tracking module.  The Study Products landing page displays products in inventory at sites as shown in Figure 1 below.   Select the product you wish to assign to a subject (or otherwise indicate disposition of) by clicking on the hyperlink related to that item displayed in the “Serial” column.  A user may narrow the list by using the filters at the top of the page.

Step 2:  In the Subject/Disposition section shown in Figure 2 below, complete the following information:

• Subject:                  Enter the complete Subject number if applicable.
• Disposition:          Select the disposition from the drop-down list; values shown below.                                  

(Default is “Unused”.)

If the disposition selected is “Unused”, “Discarded”, “Demo” or “Other” and the product is not going to be assigned to a Subject, leave the Subject number blank.

• Disposition Date:  Enter the date (in any format) you are recording the disposition

Step 3:  Enter any applicable comments in the Comments field.

Step 4:  Click “Update” to save the data on this form or “Cancel” to return to the previous screen without saving any changes.

The status of that product/device (shown in column six of the products inventory/Results in the Products screen) now reflects the disposition status chosen in Step 2 above.  [Note: When updated manually in this manner, the database does NOT automatically update the Procedure CRF to reflect the product associated with a subject.  That must be accomplished using the steps outlined in the next section: Automatic Product Disposition.]
