Promoting an ADaM Data Set to Be a User-Defined Template

Overview: Promoting an ADaM Data Set to Be a Template

Typically, an ADaM data set is for use by a single study or submission. The ADaM data set is available only to the study or submission in which it is defined. When an ADaM data set is promoted to be a user-defined template, the data set can be included in any study or submission.
Tip
Promoting an ADaM data set is similar to analyzing and promoting a custom domain. For more information, see Analyzing Domain Use and Promoting a Custom Domain to Be a Template.
Note: You must have appropriate permissions to view the Clinical Administration tree. For more information, see Adding Users to the Clinical Administrators Group.
