When under the extraction tab, it would be very helpful to be able to hit complete when you have finished extracting data while still in study inspector. Right now, you have to go through the studies one by one as the software presents them to hit complete. (you can’t go in to a particular study and update extraction and then hit complete).
I agree that this would be a good feature - not just in extraction, but also tagging & our soon landing RoB module. Our past answer was that you could use bulk module completion in Inspector, but this doesn’t handle the study by study use well.
I second this, I was going through a few added articles, tagging and extracting while in study expector, and I thought they would be “complete” once I clicked on the next arrow after extracting, but you have to go back to the extraction page and click complete.
Curious to check on the status of this?
@Kristen Hutchison We have not prioritized this feature, as of yet. I imagine this feature missing is quite annoying, depending on your workflow.
Awesome, It’s not a huge deal, but would be helpful when uploading a ton of “other sources” and prioritizing those first, before the uploaded studies in the lit searches. That’s what I’m working on now because the client sent over a list of studies they want first.
I’m still afraid of bulk actions haha is there a way to do this?
Got it- yep, that’s compelling! In Bulk Actions, check out “Update Module Status”; you can filter to one or many studies (e.g. using the Literature Search / source, or TIAB filter) you want to mark complete (or incomplete), then apply the action.
I see what you mean. I think the reason why Bulk Actions is a bit counterintuitive for me is that the stude inspector window needs to be situated before going into the bulk actions window.
Also, if I were to use this approach, how could it be a bulk action, versus including each study, one by one, with its TIAB filter, then updating module status to complete?
Your skepticism is accurate in both counts - hence the “in a pinch” :p
If I were in your shoes, with NK as it sits now, I would filter to the studies I wanted to advance-extract (e.g. using the Literature Search filter), extract them all, then use the Bulk Action.
i.e. the status would not be updated one by one. You could do it this way with the Bulk Action by filtering to the singular study and applying the Bulk Action, but that would be pretty tedious.
Gotcha, thank you for looking into this one!
Added in release 1.59.0, for tagging/extraction/RoB. You can find the Complete/Incomplete selector under Study History.
Note that when you’re in dual extraction, module status may only be updated for your (reviewer-level) extracted data. Other than that, no caveats!
