Flexible Accrual: Enhanced the CTRP accrual reporting capabilities to include more “Flexible Accrual” reporting options.

The current default accrual reporting types are as follows:
Trial Type | Default Accrual Reporting Type |
Complete Interventional | Subject |
Complete Non-Interventional | Subject |
Abbreviated/Imported Interventional | Summary |
Abbreviated/Imported Non-Interventional | Summary |
