      2. Term Name* (Full term name)

      3. Term Short Name (Short name of term)

      4. Term Other Name (Alternative name of term)

Mapping

SPORIFY Mapping Explained

  • By default, SPORIFY will analyse your uploaded data and apply a Resolution Status to every term you have uploaded.

  • System Based Resolution Status:

    1. Matched: SPORIFY has located an exact match for your term on the Target Referential list.

    2. Multiple Choice: SPORIFY has located multiple exact matches for your term on the Target Referential list. Note: When matching to Hierarchical lists, multiple choice will be allocated where identical term names with different term IDs are related to different parent terms.

    3. Suggested: SPORIFY found Target Referential Terms that are closely related to your local term.

    4. Not Set: SPORIFY could not locate any term similar to your local term.

  • SPORIFY provides mapping functionality to both Hierarchical and Non- Hierarchical lists. When matching to a Hierarchical list the corresponding matched terms will display the term parent in sub text under the matched term. When reviewing suggestions, users can view parent term information by hovering their mouse over the relevant term name text in the list of returned suggestions.

  • Once your lists are uploaded, each list will have a progress bar showing Resolution Status percentage for the given list.

  • Above all lists, an overall progress bar will show your Resolution Status percentage across all lists.

A record’s data governance status is initially set to Pending Review. The reviewer can then set a custom status and add an optional comment and the approver can thus accept or reject this status. Comments will be visible by hovering over the comment icon. If the approver rejects the status, then the record is set back to Pending Review. Any approver can also reject an item after it has already been approved to restart the process.

If the 4 eye principle is switched on, the reviewer and approver cannot be the same user.

If e-signature is switched on, the user must apply an e-signature to approve the record.

Change Requests

SPORIFY provides an Organisation Change Request module to draft, submit and manage updates regarding organisations and locations to SPOR OMS within SPORIFY.

Navigate To: Organisations - Change Requests

  • Change Requests lists can be accessed by selecting Organisations on the navigation menu, then Change Requests. Here, it lists the change requests that SPORIFY has synchronised from SPOR, as well as any drafts that have been made. Clicking on a name link brings up the associated details page.

  • Drafts of change requests can be created and saved before being submitted to SPOR on the same page.

  • The link in the Details column of any given change request shows further information, including information relating to Change Request Details, Location Details, Status Changes, Organisation Details, and Supporting Documents.

  • Change requests can likewise be duplicated by clicking the associated cog icon, then selecting Duplicate.

  • Any comments associated with a change request can be viewed by hovering over the speech bubble icon beside the record’s name in the Name column.

  • Change requests can be exported using the Export button.

  • The System advanced filter’s OMS Change Requests option used in conjunction with the Refresh button brings up a list of all OMS change requests.

  • SPORIFY’s Change Requests feature synchronises with SPOR everyday.

To submit a change request on behalf of a new organisation or location that does not yet exist on SPOR: 1. Go to the Target Organisations screen and select the desired organization or location. 2. Click Draft Change Request. 3. Opt to Update Organisation, Update Organisation and Location, Update Location or Add Location. 4. Then, select Save Draft or Submit to SPOR.

Data Governance

When Data Governance is switched on for this domain, target data records can be governed via Organisations Source Lists, Organisations Target Lists and Organisations Details screens. Organisations records will be governed at both organisation and location levels.

A record’s data governance status is initially set to Pending Review. The reviewer can then set a custom status and add an optional comment and the approver can thus accept or reject this status. Comments will be visible by hovering over the comment icon. If the approver rejects the status, then the record is set back to Pending Review. Any approver can also reject an item after it has already been approved to restart the process.

If the 4 eye principle is switched on, the reviewer and approver cannot be the same user.

If e-signature is switched on, the user must apply an e-signature to approve the record.

Template: Formatting Source Data

  • How to format your Source Data:

    • Download the Substance Excel or CSV Template by clicking on the Template action button. This template can be used for all Source Substance Lists.

    • SPORIFY requires two pieces of mandatory* information to carry out Substance Mapping and provides optional fields for enhanced matching:

      • Source ID* (Local Database Unique ID is a required field, must be unique for every record)

      • Substance Name* (Source Substance Name is a required field)

      • Local Substance ID (This is not required to be unique e.g. an alias may share this ID with its common name. This ID is also used during our matching process to provide System to System match type.)

      • SMS/EUTCT

      • EV Code

      • UNII

      • CAS

      • INCHI

      • INN

      • ATC Code

      • Molecular Formula

      • SMILES

      • Name Type

      • Substance Type

    • Using Excel: If your workbook has multiple worksheets, you should select the required worksheet to import from.

    • By default, the system expects CSV files to be delimited with a comma.

    • Set Custom Delimiter: If your CSV file is delimited with a character other than a comma, you can set your Custom Delimiter here. A Custom Delimiter can be up to three characters in length.

    • If your column text contains the delimiter character, the text should be wrapped in quotation marks. For example, 1,2,3-TRIAZOLINE is formatted as “1,2,3-TRIAZOLINE” to correctly import the delimiter character.

    • CSV files should be saved with UTF-8 encoding to preserve special characters.

SPORIFY uses a matching algorithm to look across all available languages for matches. The system default is English but you can select your primary language here.

  • Select Source Excel or CSV File: Browse your computer network and select the source file to upload. If using CSV, the system expects files to be delimited with a comma by default.

  • Select Source Excel Worksheet: If we detect your Excel file has multiple worksheets, select the worksheet you wish to import.

  • Set Custom Delimiter: If your CSV file is delimited with a character other than a comma, you can set your Custom Delimiter here. A Custom Delimiter can be up to three characters in length.

Data Governance

When Data Governance is switched on for this domain, target data records can be governed via Substances Source Lists, Substances Target Lists and Substances Details screens.

A record’s data governance status is initially set to Pending Review. The reviewer can then set a custom status and add an optional comment and the approver can thus accept or reject this status. Comments will be visible by hovering over the comment icon. If the approver rejects the status, then the record is set back to Pending Review. Any approver can also reject an item after it has already been approved to restart the process.

If the 4 eye principle is switched on, the reviewer and approver cannot be the same user.

If e-signature is switched on, the user must apply an e-signature to approve the record.
