Learn the basics about using RTSM, how to access reports, and how to request help.

Data Change Request Process

Data Changes

  • A Data Change Request (DCR) is necessary when data entered or generated in the system needs to be modified and the user is unable to modify it in the Veeva RTSM system
  • Veeva requires the site to complete a DCR form detailing the requested changes
  • All DCRs are managed using the Veeva GSC (help desk)
  • Veeva prioritizes any urgent DCRs and may execute prior to obtaining a customer signature if a patient is waiting or the patient’s safety is at risk

DCR Approval Requirements

Veeva and the Sponsor/CRO have indicated on the DCR form the types of changes that require Sponsor Approval.

If a signature is required, the change is not run until Veeva collects the customer signature.
