If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Research Development from Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm at 787-840-2575 ext.4754.

Be aware of buttons and features used to collect/incorporate data in Streamlyne, such as the looking glass tool and particularly the “Add” button where available. These are often overlooked and can sometimes even be hidden off the side of the screen depending on your screen’s zoom. For example, this error commonly occurs in the “Participant Types” section when adding the type and number of participants.

  • Check for errors in the “Validation” section in the “Protocol Action” tab. Clicking “show” and “fix” will help you identify the errors and take you to the page where you can fix them.
  • Be sure all the fields in the “Protocol” tab marked with an asterisk are filled out.
  • In the “Questionnaire”, be sure to provide an answer to every question of the “New IRB Protocol” section.
