How can I discontinue collection of data for a participant? Answered
If there’s a case where we need to discontinue collection of data about a study participant, can we do that from our end (via the RK Studio project dashboard/admin interface), or does the subject need to delete the app from their phone and watch?
We’re working through a regulatory audit of our protocol, and want to make sure that if a subject ends their participation in the study, we can disable further data collection from our end rather than have to rely on them doing it on theirs.

We do have a mechanism where we can turn off sensor collection based on a date you define at the participant level. See our User Guide for details, but basically we create a new custom field on the project to capture a date and then configure the project to point at that field for Sensor Data Collection End Date.
On the End of Project screen for the Project Settings tab, you have to select a custom field field and the Save button for that field to be designated as the special field that we will reference for EACH participant. It will not end collection for all participants, only for any participant who has a date set in this field and that date is today or in the past.
