Best Practices

1. Can I just put documents directly into the TMF index structure?

Answer:

This not a recommended practice. Per regulatory authorities, there needs to be a QC process to review and approve documents before they wind up in the TMF structure. TI allows for that with configurable workflows. Once the workflow is complete the document can automatically be routed to a final published folder within the TMF structure.

2. Should eSignature be used in an eTMF room?

Answer:

It is not recommended. Ideally, eSignature functionality should be used within a TI Collaborate or TI Docs room, not within an eTMF room. Those completed and approved documents can then be published to the eTMF room directly from the linked TI Content Management room.
