How to register participants to another CP via bulk import?

OpenSpecimen allows users to add existing participants to another protocol. You can use any of the below fields to uniquely identify a participant:

1. eMPI

2. MRN + MRN site

3. SSN.

E.g., Register a participant having eMPI ‘110231’ (already present in CP ‘Skin Cancer Study’) to another CP ‘Lung Cancer Research Study1’.

Steps:

• Navigate to the 'Collection Protocols' list view → More → ‘Biospecimen Data’.

Open

• Select 'Participant Registrations’ from the 'Select Records Type' dropdown and download the template file from UI.

Open

• Add the existing eMPI or MRN + MRN site of the participant under the respective column in the template file.

• Add a short title and PPID (if auto-generation is off) of another CP on which the user is going to register the participant in the columns ‘CPR#1#CP Short Title’ and ‘CPR#1#PPID’ respectively.

• Upload the file and select ‘Import Type’ as ‘Create’ → ‘Validate and Import’.

• The system will register the participant to another CP using the existing eMPI.
