As an administrator I should be able to assign roles for studies #19

Just thinking about underlying structures of this and how it might (hopefully) at some point need to cope with more than 1 study running.

I think "Roles" e.g Scientist etc should be defined relative to a study.

The reason for this is if we imagine there are two studies both using OPAL/elCID that both studies might have people whose real world Role = Research Nurse or Clinical Lead but the view of the lists would be different for them.

So you might have: Resp Infection Research Nurse Brain Infection Research Nurse

This may just be semantics and not sure I have articulated that very clearly but hope you get the sense that we should design the structure of the system and roles such that more than 1 study can be supported simultaneously.

+10 all these things :) (This was very much my implementation plan anyway!)

In the first instance, the priority is obviously to meet the needs of the RID-RTI study.

Wherever it doesn't conflict with those needs, we should absolutely design the functionality to maximise re-use.

This is definitely one of those areas AFAIC !
