Reactivating an Inactive Study

You can directly reactivate an inactive study when you decide to begin performing experiments again without editing the study. This updates the existing BIOVIA Foundation Hub Task Plan, sample definitions, and tasks so that they are no longer suspended.


Before you begin: You can only directly reactivate a study in the Inactive lifecycle state. For more information, see Approving a Study and Completing a Study.
