[Loris-dev] Behavioral Database Workflow

[Christine Rogers]

HI Muhammed,
Thanks for your questions;  we'll log these as issues/requests for
discussion with the team.

i.) What is the purpose of the *BVL QC *& *BVL Exclusion*, and how do I go
> about utilizing this feature?


BVL QC and BVL Exclusion are columns that appear in the Timepoint List
page, drawn by the Timepoint class from columns in the session table
<https://github.com/aces/Loris/blob/17.0-dev/SQL/0000-00-00-schema.sql#L1060>.


*BVL QC* can be set for a given timepoint by clicking on the timepoint in
the table, and in the control panel (left sidebar) selecting Visual or
Hardcopy under "BVL QC Type",  and then selecting "Complete" under "BVL QC
Status".
Projects can use this to mark if/when all completed instruments for a visit
have been inspected against paper originals (hardcopy), or against digital
or scoring sources ('visual').
Once both these flags are set within the timepoint, you should see the
value (visual or hardcopy) in the Timepoint List table, BVL QC column.
*BVL Exclusion* can be used by custom code or scripts to flag excluded
datasets (e.g. due to candidate disqualification or data quality
insufficiency etc), but is not currently set via Loris' front end.

ii.) On the dashboard, I noticed that the number of *Incomplete Forms *that

Thanks for reporting this -- this count should be consistent across modules
and should include unopened as well as In Progress.

iii.) After a visit has been sent to DCC for approval, is there a way for

This notification would be a good feature to add, and could also appear as
a notification on the dashboard upon login, e.g. configurable for the site
coordinator and visible only for their site visits.

Best,
Christine
