Assigning references after removing users in Title and abstract screening stage

Removing team members from a project who have already assigned references to screen, will result in one of the following scenarios:

  • If the number of reviewers is sufficient for double screening, records are automatically distributed to other team members (for given batch of records).

  • Otherwise an alert will appear next to screening streams that are affected by the change.  In the stream details you can select who should perform screening instead.

The Title and abstract stage dashboard with the group of previously distributed tasks that require redistribution in the 'Screening Tasks' section.
