Generating Define XML using community version

j Jatin

on January 20, 2015

We have an encountered an issue when creating define.xml using OpenCDISC community 2.0. Page numbers are not being displayed in the define.xml, albeit the specs do reflect the page numbers. We have modified the specs that is generated from the XPTs by adding Origin, Page Numbers etc., we have loaded the specs to generate the define, but the page numbers are not populating. Can you please let us know if there is any bug with the current version of the OpenCDISC community 2.0. Your input this is greatly appreciated.

Hi Jatin, Links to CRF pages

Hi Jatin,

Links to CRF pages are generated by a define.xml stylesheet. The commonly used stylesheet provided in CDISC define.xml v2.0 package works only with one pre-defined Href attribute value for aCRF. It should be “blankcrf.pdf”.

Also ID should be "blankcrf". It's a hardcoded aCRF ID for Origin in OpenCDISC define.xml generator.

Otherwise CRF Page links will not be populated.

You need to correct Href value for aCRFs in Documents tab of your specifications.

Title

Href

blankcrf

Annotated Case Report Form

blankcrf.pdf

Thank you,

Sergiy

Links to CRF pages

Hi Sergiy,

You are right, that for Define-XML v1 the filename (blankcrf.pdf) was hard-coded in the stylesheet, since there was no metadata connecting the Origin to the annotated CRF document. In Define-XML v2 however, the filename is in the metadata (through def:Origin/def:DocumentRef) and the stylesheet does not make any assumptions for the annotated CRF filename.

Best,

Lex
