21R1 Template Revisions

Learn about system template changes in Vault Safety 21R1.

Note Beginning with 23R3 content and for all subsequent releases, Vault Release Notes is the official site for Vault Safety release notes.

Vault Safety template revisions include changes to vault configuration for general usability improvements. Template revisions are not automatically rolled out to existing customers.

New vaults created in 21R1 or later will have the following settings by default. Vaults created in an earlier release can optionally be updated to match these changes. The sections on this page provide the instructions to enable these changes.

This page does not cover how to update your template to support new features. The 21R1 New Features page outlines which features require configuration upgrades, and provides links to enablement instructions for each feature.

Configure Blinding Security for the Translator Role

In the previous Vault Safety template, the Translator role did not have permissions on all Case-related objects. Additionally, the role did not have blind protection. The 21R1 release template configuration has been updated so that this role is now blind-protected.

    1. Go to Admin > Configuration > Object Lifecycle > Case Adverse Event Lifecycle.
    2. Scroll down to Roles.

Note Additional fields have been added to the Imported Case object in template for the Pregnancy Case feature. See Enable Pregnancy and Parent-Child Case Data Collection for instructions.

  5. Under the Imported Case (imported_case__v) object type, ensure the following fields are selected:
    • Malfunction Only
    • E2B Import
    • Product Type
    • Unblinded By
    • Unblinded Date
    • Unblinded Reason
    • Version
  6. Select Save.

Next Steps

If required for your business process, update the Imported Case Page Layout to display these fields.

Add a Blinded Study Validation Rule

In Configuration > Objects > Study > Validation Rules, a new Validation Rule has been added with the following formula to prevent users from setting the Blinded field on single-blind or open-label studies when using Vault Loader:

If(masking__v != 'doubleblind__v' , IsBlank(blinded__v), TRUE)

Study Blinded Field Validation Rule

And(Not(And(IsBlank(event_reported__v), IsBlank(event_meddra__vr.name__v))), And(meddra_version__v != 'default_version__v', Not(IsBlank(meddra_version__v))))

This change was made to validate that the MedDRA Version is selected on AERs received from E2B files.

Add Drug Role to Case Product Vaccine Page Layout

In the 21R1 template, the Drug Role field has been added to the Vaccine-type Case Product page layout. This change was made because Drug Role is an important piece of information and mandatory for E2B(R3) submissions.

To make this change in your vault, go to Configuration > Objects > Case Product > Page Layouts > Vaccine Detail Product Page Layout.

Move Product to System on External Products

On the External Product page layout, the Product field has been moved out of the Details section and into the System section.

This change was made because External Products are not associated with records in the Product library, therefore, there is no need to select one with the Product field. Instead, users should enter the reported product name and optionally code the product using WHODrug.

To make this change in your vault, go to Configuration > Objects > Case Product > Page Layouts > External Product Page Layout.

In the 21R1 template, a typo of “Rational” is corrected to “Rationale” in the Verdict Instructions text for every verdict in the following Case Unblinding workflow tasks:
