tip

For a double-blind study with 500 codes per arm, prepare two sets of rows in one file or import separately:

• 500 rows with Study Group = CardioRelief CRF-101 (CRF-0001 → CRF-0500)
• 500 rows with Study Group = Placebo (PBO-0001 → PBO-0500)

The system will reject the entire batch if any IP Code already exists, so ensure codes are unique before importing.
