Create and Access Issues in Analytics

This article is currently being updated. Please come back later for updates.

Analytics provides the ability to create an issue on a sheet that has been filtered for a study or a subject. Within the issue, the user can set a priority and a due date, add text explaining the issue, and assign it to another user, role, or user group. The issue is saved and is then available from the Issues listing within the Issues module. All issues include a link back to the sheet where the issue was created, with any saved filters. For example, if you apply filters limiting data to a specific data point, then opening the link back to the sheet where the issue was created will open with the applied filters.

    Create Issue

    Issue details are at the top of the window and include: Issue Link, Type, Sheet Name, App Name, App Version, Study Id, and Subject, if one was selected; these cannot be altered.
