E-IRB Improvements for Researchers Continue

On May 17, 2018, a "PI Contact Information" feature in high demand by researchers was installed in the E-IRB system.  When the Principal Investigator (PI) contact information is being completed, the "Department" name and "Dept Code" are automatically populated in the department and department code field based on the individual’s primary department name in the employee/student records stored in SAP (the UK employee/student data warehouse).  The default department name was unable to be edited in E-IRB prior to May 17th, but now, the researcher has a drop-down box in order to change the department name and code if necessary. This field will be editable per protocol and will not affect the individual's department information on other applications.  Note: Selecting a different department name from the drop down box will automatically update the department code in the separate "Dept Code" field.
