Authorize webCATI

The authorize webCATI feature allows you to authorize a webCATI station.  This does not mean the interviewer is started on a study.  An interviewer starts on a study once they log into a study they are authorized on.  You can authorize a single station or multiple stations at a time on a single study or multiple studies.  You can also choose to authorize a station in Live or Practice mode and on the dialer or not on the dialer.

You can also clear webCATI stations from this screen or change webCATI studies from this screen.
