# Using the Site Activation Progress View

The critical path for site activation requires collecting site documents quickly and managing local approvals. Site Activation Progress allows study startup specialists to monitor overall progress across a study country and easily identify what is holding up each site's greenlight by displaying details for each EDL item and site. Status indicator icons and hover cards provide detail at a glance. You can also navigate directly to documents to remind the site to submit or take other action, enabling you to get every site to first subject, first visit faster.

## How to View Site Activation Progress

If this view is enabled in your Vault and accessible to you, the **Site Activation Progress** tab appears in your primary navigation bar. Click into the tab, then use the **Study Country Selector** menu to choose a country to view.

## Refreshing the View

Information that appears in the Site Activation Progress view is based on the [EDL item to document matching job](/en/lr/32749/#matching) Vault performs on a regular, scheduled basis. Sometimes, the information that you see here is not current; you can check this by looking at the **EDL last matched time** field.

## EDL Item & Site Grouping

The Site Activation Progress view groups both EDL items and sites to help you navigate:

  * EDL items group according to the _Milestone Type_ of their associated _Milestone_. A user must create a relationship between the _EDL Item_ record and a _Milestone_ record for the EDL item to appear in Site Activation Progress. Some EDL items do not appear because your Admin has not selected their _Milestone Type_ to show in this view.
  * Sites group according to their _Planned SIV Date_ and the current date: _Overdue_ for SIV dates in the past, _In the Next_ for dates that are coming soon, and _Planned_ for dates further in the future. There is also a _Complete_ group for sites with _Actual SIV Date_ populated.

## Status Indicators

Site Activation Progress displays a status indicator icon (or "harvey ball") for each EDL item, based on the item's [_Completeness_ value](/en/lr/32749/#completeness). If an EDL item has more than one (1) expected document, the number expected appears alongside the icon.

|–|N/A (The EDL Item record does not exist for this site or there are zero (0) documents required.)|

## How to View Details

You can view details on a specific EDL item by hovering over the status indicator icon:

  * Completeness status
  * Percentage complete (`# steady state documents / # expected documents`)
  * Number of expected documents
  * Links to view matched documents

To view all matching documents, click **View all** and then use the [**Next** and **Previous** arrow buttons](/en/lr/26487/) to navigate through the complete list.

## Filtering & Saving Custom Views

The Site Activation Progress view allows you to apply filters based a limited set of parameters. You can then save your filter settings as a custom view that you can return to later. Filters and saved views work here like they do in the Library or in a custom tab.
