Create New Domain Item

If the system does not return the domain item you are searching for, you can create a new domain item using a template. Each of the domain templates is different. Some templates are short, while others, like the Dosage Form Name template, have many fields. When the page appears, complete the relevant fields, and as a minimum, complete all required fields.

To Create New Domain Item:

  1. In the Search for Domains results page, click the Open Blank Template link at the bottom of the page. The system opens a domain template based on the Search Field selection.

  2. Complete the domain template. Click a link in the List of Domains below to see a field list for the domain.

  3. Click the Submit button. The system saves the domain item to the database with a Pending status and it must be approved, edited, or rejected. See PPS Data Requests for more information.
