What is the minimum footprint?


Washington University identified what fields are critical data points within the Oncore system for all studies.

These critical data points are fields that: 

  • are universally applicable 

  • meet a number of needs (reporting, integration, etc.) 

  • must have data quality  

  • require timely entry  

  • represent our research portfolio 


Departments and/or study teams may elect to have a larger footprint based on the data needs of the area.  Additionally, certain types of studies may require additional fields (e.g., for Sponsor reporting). The screens below show the Institutional Minimum Footprint, but you should check with your Department's OnCore Liaison to see if additional fields are required for research in your area.
