Permissions: Users must have Data Central and Study Configure permissions.

A study can be configured with a designated default workspace based on the user’s Data Central reviewer role.  The Study Configure privilege, or higher, is required to set a default workspace for a role.

The default workspace for a user’s Data Central reviewer role applies the first time the user logs in. After that, if the Use User Workspace option is selected in Data Central Settings, the workspace from the previous session displays at the next login. If Use User Workspace is not selected, the default workspace for the user’s role displays. If no default workspace is defined for the role, the system default workspace displays.

Users can recover their default workspace at any time by selecting it from the Workspace drop-down.

1. In Data Central, click the Data Central Settings icon.
2. Under Data Central Settings, select Workspace Defaults.
   Selecting this option opens a window that allows selection of a workspace from a drop-down list for each role configured for the URL. Roles typically include Read Only, Data Manager, Medical Data Reviewer, Medical Coder, and optional custom roles configured for the study. Workspace defaults can be assigned to one or multiple reviewer roles.
3. In the Role Workspace Defaults window, click the drop-down arrow for each role to select a default workspace. The drop-down includes elluminate workspaces, such as Audit Trail Review and Review Plan Dashboard, as well as custom workspaces.
   
4. Select a workspace from the list.
5. Click Save.

Note: For the Read Only role, the workspace is Default. This is the system default, typically showing the Subjects listing on the first sheet of the workspace.

To clear a workspace selection, click the 'x' on the right.
