D.13.1. What is a Literature references inventory?

The Literature references inventory is the container for all bibliographic references inserted by the user. It is locally managed in each IUCLID installation only and is related to the repeatable field block Reference in Endpoint study records of sections 4 to 10 (see the following screenshot example). In this block, the bibliographic reference(s) is/are specified of the study report(s) or publication(s) which the Endpoint study record is based on. As described in chapter D.4.7.7.2 Data source, literature references can either be entered manually or selected from the Literature references inventory using the Select button . Vice versa any reference entered in this block can be inserted in this inventory by clicking the Insert button .

The Literature references inventory has to be built by the user and continuously supplemented as appropriate. There is no possibility to upload references from another source or from an import file. The available references can be queried, edited and deleted in this inventory. Also new references can be added.
