Can I Update a Reason code mid of the project?

Yes. Project Owners and Lead Reviewers can add or update inclusion and exclusion reasons from the project settings.

To update a reason:
  1. Open the project.
  2. Go to Project Settings.
  3. Open the Reasons section.
  4. Add or update the required Include or Exclude reason.
  5. Save the changes.
Reasons can be configured separately for the Title–Abstract and Full-Text stages.
Important: If you change a reason while a project is active, please review the impact carefully. Updating the reason text will also update the reason associated with decisions that were already recorded using the previous text. However, changing a reason does not automatically reassess previously screened articles based on the new interpretation.
