Data Capture

# Application
Last updated: 04/14/2026

Business definition of Data Capture — electronic clinical data entry across subjects, visits, and CRFs.

What it is

Data Capture is the core electronic data capture (EDC) capability of ClinicalDataS. It is how study teams record subject data at each visit event using electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs) defined for the study.

Data Capture is not a separate installable app card in the same way as Form Builder or Queries — it is the study workspace where subjects are enrolled, visits are scheduled, and CRF data is entered, saved, and reviewed.
