Clearing (Deleting) All Study Data

Permanently Removing All data in a Study That is Still in Development Status

Clearing all study data can be used during testing to reset the database to a clean slate.

Prerequisites:

  • User has access to Study Configuration
  • User has access to Subject Record Management > Clear all Data
  • Study is in Development status

To clear all data from a study, open the study configuration screen and find the option to remove all data.

Web Browser:

 

Mobile App:

Open Study functionality, and then the study status settings:

2916d9c3-5d9a-48a9-885f-1b36ca56da21

Tap the button to clear all data:

9b996742-db35-46ae-a6a3-bbc2278db7c5

 

NOTE: If the study status is not in Development status, but data still needs to be cleared, the status needs to be reset to Development before all data can be cleared.

An alternative to clearing the study data would be simply to create a new copy of the study using the Study Manager and not include any data in the copy.
