Assign Studies
Assigning studies helps ensure that each study has a clearly designated user responsible for review, reporting, or approval workflows.
Assignments help clinical teams organise workload more efficiently and allow users to focus on studies relevant to their role or responsibilities.
If enabled, assigned users may also receive email notifications when studies are assigned to them.
