To ensure that there aren’t accidental deletions of information in Ripple some parts of the system require a two-step process. These include:
- Participants from a Study
- Participants from the Registry
- A consent form from the Consent Log on their Profile Card
- A survey from the Survey Creator
- A study
Deleting a Participant from the Registry, a Consent Log item, or a Survey:
When a user clicks a button to delete a participant from a Study or the Registry or a survey from the study, a prompt will appear requiring them to type in the word “DELETE” in all caps before the item is deleted.
Deleting a Study:
When a user wants to delete a study, they must first archive their study. Once they locate the archived study, they’ll have the option to delete the study.
Warning:
Users cannot retrieve a participant, survey, consent log, or study that they delete.
