Tip #189: Validation Protocols: Creating Default Strings in Empower

A Default string is text that you can create in advance and then select from a list when you are required to provide a reason for creating and/or modifying something in Empower, such as a method. Default strings are also used when you select a reason for Sign Off in a report and, as discussed in Tip #188, when you select the compound type and development phase when creating a Validation Protocol. 

ENVIRONMENT

  • Empower
