Veeva LIMS Basics: Stability Approver
The purpose of giving final approval to a study is to lock down the fields and ensure none of the related spec exes can be reactivated.
You will likely be reviewing the Stability Report and the study at the same time, but the report needs to be finalized first, then the study.
To perform the final review and approval of a stability study:
When final study approval is requested, a task is sent to the specified approver(s). Click the task link.
If the task was sent to a group for approval, click Accept to accept the task. Only one person needs to accept it.
Select Review Study Overview from the All Actions menu to visually review the tests performed for each timepoint by storage condition and/or orientation. To see specific timepoint results, click into the applicable Spec Execution link.
When you are finished with your review, click the Exit Overview icon ().
Click Complete to complete the task.
Provide your verdict.
Select Return for Edits if changes are needed before the study can be approved. Provide the Reason for return describing what changes are needed and click Complete.
Select Approve, provide your e-signature, and click Complete to give final study approval. If approved, the study will move to the Completed state.
