Features

The following new or updated functionality is included in this release.

Process Recalls from Non-FDA Sources

Product Information Exchange is enhanced to process recalls issued by non-FDA sources. For non-FDA sourced recalls, the recallNoticeSource and recallNoticeEntity fields will display the details of the source. For example, if the California State Board of Pharmacy issued a recall, then the value in the recallNoticeSourcefield can be state board of pharmacy and the value in the recallNoticeEntity field will be California State Board of Pharmacy.

Product Information Exchange, solution version 9.0.0 only supports non-FDA recalls issued by the California Board of Pharmacy.

Usability Enhancements for Recalls

A new serialNumberInformation field is introduced to accommodate the different ways in which recall sources format serial number data. The existing serialNumberData field captures individual serial numbers, and the serialNumberInformation field captures any unstructured data or additional context about serial numbers, such as the ship date for a set of serial numbers.
