Overview
The features of OC4 data entry include the following:
- A Subject Matrix that allows you to easily see the data entry status of subjects
- Auto-save – this means there is no need to click save as you enter data; all your data is automatically saved throughout the data entry process
- Conditional field display – only see the fields that need to be entered IF they need to be entered
- Automatic calculations and data checks occur in real time
- Query “bubbles” for easy access to create or view queries for any data point
The Subject Matrix
The Subject Matrix lists events/visits across the top and subject IDs down the side. Each icon represents the status of the subject/event combination. A legend of the icons is listed on the left side of the screen. Roll over the icons to see the status of the subject event. Click an icon for options to view and/or edit data, depending on your access.

Auto-save
As you enter data, All changes saved will flash on the screen periodically. This indicates that your changes are saved, which saves you the trouble of clicking save and minimizes the risk of losing any data due to any unexpected interruptions or down-time.

Conditional Field Display
Only fields that should be entered are displayed, and this may be based on values that you enter into another field.
For example, if your form includes a question: Does the subject smoke cigarettes? If the answer is yes, an additional field displays: How many packs per day? If the answer is no, How many packs per day does not display.
