Visits are added to an enrollment on the Specimen Management
page.
About this task
A visit must be created before you can enter specimen information in LDMS.
Tip: If you want to create a new visit for a specimen that already exists, you should
co-enroll the primary specimen instead of adding a new visit to the enrollment. During the
co-enrollment process, you will have the opportunity to create a new visit.
Procedure
Click Specimen Management from the LDMS menu bar.
Find the participant to which a visit will be added.
Use filters from the left side of the page to find the participant.

(If required by the project) Select the ID3 from the
ID3 list.
ID3 is typically used for a sub-study or sub-protocol.

Collection Date list.
If the visit occurred or will occur over more than one day, you must add a new
visit for each date.
Note: Future dates are allowed in the Collection Date
field.

unit for the visit into the Visit Value boxes.
