CREATE COPY OF COMPLETED WORKSHEET

There are two methods for copying a completed worksheet.  The Copy feature and the Copy to Amend feature. Both options are listed under the Action column.  Hover your cursor over the top left of the Action column for the appropriate Worksheet and then click on the ellipse icon (red arrow) to access the Copy or Copy for Amendment features from the Action drop-down list.

The Copy feature should be used when you want to use an existing worksheet as a starting point for a new worksheet (for example, using a completed PI Worksheet for a new PI).

 

The Copy to Amend feature should be used when you want to revise an approved worksheet (for example, making a change to your Signatory Institution Worksheet).

 

To use the Copy feature for a completed Worksheet, click on the Copy link, and the copy will open in a new window in your browser and will retain all answers associated with the previous Worksheet.  From this screen, you will be able to update the specific questions or fields to make the Worksheet current.

 

To use the Copy to Amend feature for a completed Worksheet, click on the Copy to Amend link to open a new copy of the Worksheet as well as highlight any revised answers. The copy will open in a new window in your browser and will retain all answers associated with the previous Worksheet. From this screen, you will be able to update the specific questions or fields to make the Worksheet current.

 

USEFUL TIPS

The Copy to Amend feature is especially useful when creating a new revised Annual Signatory Institution Worksheet or Annual Principal Investigator Worksheet.

The Copy to Amend feature should not be used when creating a new Study-Specific Worksheet, Change of PI Study-Specific Worksheet, or new Study Closure and Transfer of Review Responsibilities Worksheet.
