It is important to understand that in the WashU REDCap instance access and user rights to individual REDCap Projects are controlled by the study teams themselves. This means that the individual study team determines who is given access to a project and what tasks that person is able to complete once added (User Rights). This page provides definitions for each User Right or “Privilege” that can be assigned to a study team member when adding them to a project. When adding a user to a project, you should give them the minimum rights necessary to complete their assigned task. For example, if someone will only enter data they do not need the Project Setup and Design privilege. If you are unsure how to add someone to your project, please see this FAQ: How do I add someone to my REDCap project?

User Right | Description | Additional Considerations |
|---|---|---|
SetupDefine | It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that a statistician have the 'Setup’ randomization user rights. At a minimum, the user with 'Setup’ rights should be working under the guidance of a statistician. See the RANDOMIZATION WARNING for more details. The setup rights allow the user to define the parameters of the Randomization model and create a template allocation table so you can structure a randomization table to import. | WashU REDCap Support does not provide services or user support related to randomization unless we are working directly with a statistician. |
Dashboard | Allows monitoring of overall allocation progress and assignment of randomized participants | |
Randomize | Allows user to perform randomization. Also allows them to view and modify any existing data already collected for the randomization strata fields (if stratification is used) when they are performing the randomization. | Users with these rights can view the strata fields even if they do not have Data Viewing Rights for the instrument with these fields. Thus, Randomize rights trumps form-level rights in this way, but only for the randomization strata fields. |
