Group IDs are used to ‘bind’ together data collected within a unique Form, even when that data spans multiple records or multiple domains.  For example, an “Adverse Event / Concomitant Medication” Form may contain AE Domain data as well as CM Domain data, with that data associated across datasets by way of shared AEGRPID and CMGRPID variables.

VISIT

ClinSpark

Visits (or ‘Study Events’) describe study days (i.e. Day 1, Day 2, Day 3) or categories of activities (i.e. AE / CM Details).  Scheduled Study Events are used to organize activities that are scheduled to be collected on a particular day.  Unscheduled Study Events provide a container for ad-hoc activities that were not initially scheduled to be collected during a particular visit or at a particular time point.  Common Study Events provide a container for a sub-set of unscheduled activities (like AEs and Con Meds) so as to quickly differentiate these important activities from other unscheduled activities.

...

Visits map within every dataset under a “VISIT” column header when reported via a Clinical Data CSV or Clinical Data Excel Transfer report.
