Can anybody tell me which variable is used to capture the field "Blank?" (Y/N) of a DCM?
I have written a query for a field to check whether the value is null or not. This DCM has only one field. If the value is not present on the CRF, the Data Entry will mark the DCM as blank and my query will not fire. So I want to alternatively check for the value of the field "Blank?" of the DCM.

Hi,
I had the same problem and didnt find any way to control the blank variable value. Anycase, to control whether the DCM is present or not, or the DCM has been marked as blank, I use to set an alias for a DCM wich is always present in each patient/record (patient registry or any other similar) marked as primary reference and after I do set a new alias for the dcm to be blank controlled and tick the mark for the "Place Holder" field. Then select any variable for the second alias and pick the variablename$HAS_DATA system option and declare the procedure as... variablename$HAS_DATA = 'N' as query being 'variablename' the one you selected for your study.
It always runs on every case when it finds any DCM for that alias marked as blank or not filled in. Can find edit check it in the discrepancy database, not in the RDC.
Good luck!!
