E2B R3 import
E2B R3 standard is a guideline for the electronic transmission of Individual Case Safety Reports (ICSRs) in pharmacovigilance. By implementing this standard, the PV system enhances the quality and accuracy of adverse event data by ensuring consistency, quality, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
In PV, you can use the E2B R3 import feature for safety information exchange from one database to another in one of the following ways—via manual file upload or gateway file import.
-
Manual upload becomes useful if you already have your XML files and want to import them into the system for further processing.
-
Gateway import becomes useful in automating the file exchange process with the respective sender. This way, you can configure a submission setting for your senders and receive their XML files automatically, eliminating the amount of manual operations and enhancing user experience.
In the following sections, you can learn how to access and manage your E2B R3 import files.
E2B R3 standard is a guideline for the electronic transmission of ICSRs in pharmacovigilance. In the PV application, you can use the manual import feature for a safe E2B R3 file exchange from one database to another.
All the E2B R3 XML files previously uploaded to the PV system can be accessed for further processing, review, and other actions from the Manual Upload table.

Warning
: indicates that there is an issue with ACK generation. -
Failed
: indicates that the ACK generation failed due to a problem with an XML file. Contact the
EDETEK administrator to resolve the issue.
For the gateway-received E2B R3 files, you have to generate ACK manually after the file is successfully reviewed.EDI In
