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 Global Issues, and the Issues listing in Data Central. All issues include a link back to the sheet where the issue was created, with any saved filters. For example, applying filters to limit data to a specific data point causes the link back to the sheet where the issue was created to open with the applied filters.

Create an Issue

  1. Click Create Issue. The Create Issue window opens.
    Create Issue link in the Analytics app toolbar
     

    Tip: This window can be moved by dragging it elsewhere on the screen in order to view the window behind it.

    The window separates editable Issue fields from a read-only Information section. The Information section displays Issue Link, Type, Subject ID, Sheet Name, App Name, App Version, and Study Id; these fields cannot be altered.
