5 P a g e 4 OnCore Navigation Tips Open Only One Session of OnCore at a Time Only one session (web browser window) of OnCore should ever be open at one time. Multiple sessions of OnCore will result in program misbehavior, could result in data loss, and can only be resolved by closing the additional sessions. Turn Off Any Pop-Up Blockers in Your Web Browser There are times that OnCore will use pop-up windows for data entry/selection. Pop-up blockers will prevent these windows from displaying; please ensure that your web browser s pop-up blocker is disabled. Avoid Using the Back Button in Your Web Browser Avoid using the back button within your web browser while working in OnCore. Instead, use the navigation buttons, tabs, and menus within the OnCore Application to navigate. Using the browser s toolbar is outside the OnCore application and may lead to unexpected results and unsaved data. Do Not Change or Reset the Password for Your Account Users cannot reset their password in OnCore. Even though it appears that the Change Password option within your Profile will work, it has been disabled for University at Buffalo faculty and staff. Please use your UBIT Name and Password, or an assigned training account, to log into the system. Users can access their UBIT Password by calling the UBIT Help Desk at or by completing the UBIT Help Center form found on the website: Be Aware of Hyperlinks Throughout OnCore, any information presented in blue underlined text will allow the user to short cut to other areas of the system without utilizing a menu. Utilize CTRL+F to Find Items in Lists Utilizing the CTRL Key with the F key provides a quick search within a list. Select the list, document, or screen desired to be searched, then hold down the CTRL Key while also pressing the F key (Use the Command key, +F, on a Mac). Log Off Properly to Ensure Data Security To properly exit OnCore, please click the Log Off link at the top right of the screen. Simply closing your browser window may not log you off the site, leaving patient data insecure. Use Keyboard Shortcuts When Entering Dates Date fields in OnCore also accept a variety of keyboard shortcuts, or dates that are calculated relative to another date, as opposed to a specific date.

6 P a g e 5 Date Shortcuts Shortcut Resulting entry t Inserts the current date t + n t - n (where n is a number) Inserts a date n days from today: t +3 is three days from today t-1 inserts yesterday s date (1 day ago) w n w + n Inserts the current date plus/minus n number of weeks w 6 will insert a date 6 weeks ago w + 2 will insert a date 2 weeks from today m + n m n Inserts the current date plus/minus n number of months y + n y n Inserts the current date plus/minus n number of years mb or me Inserts the beginning or end of the month respectively; it can be used alone, or with + or with a number yb or ye Inserts the beginning or end of the year, respectively; it can be used alone or with + or with a number

Choose a location from the Study Site drop-down menu. A subject cannot be entered into OnCore without an association to a protocol. When entering a new subject, first check to see whether they have already been entered into OnCore, in order to avoid duplicate subject entries. The Subject Find Results table shows subject records that already exist in OnCore. These subjects are already associated with another protocol. If you want to know if they are currently active in another study, please contact CTMS@buffalo.edu If there is a duplicate subject created or you need to have a subject record deleted, please contact CTMS@buffalo.edu

16 P a g e Click the Generate button to create an OnCore Subject ID for the patient. This number will identify this subject across all protocols in the OnCore system.
