Populating your Data Expected List
How to populate the Data Expected List is one of the most common questions NDA gets.
The Data Expected List is a list of your data collection entities. Each entry in the Data Expected List must correspond to one or more NDA Data Structures. You must provide information about how many subjects will have data collected against each item in the list (Targeted Enrollment), as well as information about initial submission and share dates.
Key Takeaways
Last Modified on June 28, 2023- Don’t wait to start populating your list. A full list of your expected Data Structures is a requirement that’s due within the first 6-months of the grant award to keep you compliant. However, don’t worry, this can be changed as needed. The sooner you populate the Data Expected List, the more likely you’ll be able to submit data on time.
- Each NDA Collection has one or more Mandatory Data Structures. These Structures are preloaded and should not be deleted. Your task is to update the Targeted Enrollment numbers, Initial Submission dates, and Data Sharing dates and submit data cumulatively.
- Use the NDA Data Dictionary Query Tool and NDA Homepage Search Engine to find Data Structures and Data Elements you can use.
- If you need a modification to an existing Data Structure or Element, please submit a Change Request using the NDA Help Desk.
- It is preferable that you use ALREADY defined Data Structures and Elements, or work with NDA to adapt current Structures and Elements, and not create new ones.
