# About the Safety-RIM Connection

Using the Safety-RIM Connection, organizations with both a Safety Vault and RIM Submissions Vault can exchange data from your RIM Submissions Vault to your Safety Vault, providing a common set of data against which to record _Cases_. The Safety-RIM connection transfers, creates, and updates the following records in your Safety Vault based on updates made to corresponding records in your RIM Vault:

* _Organization_ (of type _Registration Holder_)
* _Product_ (for complex products in your RIM Vault, the connection [generates _Combination Products_][1] in your Safety Vault)
* _Product Alias_
* _Product Constituent_
* _Product Family_
* _Product Family Product_
* _Product Family Substance_
* _Product Dose Form_ (these track all associated _Dose Forms_ received from RIM)
* _Product Registration_ (of types _Marketed Drug Product Registration_ and _Marketed Device Product Registration_)
* _Product Variant_
* _Substance_

## Transferring Combination Products {#combo}

For complex products in your RIM Vault, the connection generates <a class="external-link " href="https://safety.veevavault.help/en/lr/01214" target="_blank" rel="noopener">_Combination Product_ types of _Products_<i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a> in your Safety Vault and transfers the related registration, variant, constituent, and substance details. Depending on your Admin's configuration, Vault may generate _Combination Products_ for the following RIM _Products_:

* All _Complex Product_ types of _Products_
* All _Products_ associated with the _Primary Product Family_ specified in a _Packaging_

When your Admin has configured the connection to transfer complex product details for co-packaged product constituents, Vault updates product details in your Safety Vault based on updates to the following records in your RIM Vault:

* _Packaging_
* _Packaging Product Variant_
* _Product Variant Active Substance_
* _Registered Packaging_

## Syncing Product Substances {#sync}

Vault automatically synchronizes _Product Substances_ in your Safety Vault with data in your RIM Vault for all _Products_ generated by the connection and associated with _Product Families_ generated by the connection. You can also manually trigger substance synchronization in your Safety Vault using the <a class="external-link " href="https://safety.veevavault.help/en/lr/01215#sync" target="_blank" rel="noopener">_Sync Substances_ action<i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>. When you run this action, Vault updates all applicable _Products_ with the substance details from the corresponding records in your RIM Vault.

## Generating the PSMF Annex H Document {#psmf-annex-h}

You can use the standard Annex H report to generate the PSMF Annex H document in your SafetyDocs Vault using product registration data received from your RIM Vault. To do this:

1. Navigate to **Analytics > Reports** and open the **Annex H** report.
2. Review the report and identify any missing field data.
    * If applicable, populate those fields on the appropriate records.
    * If you update any fields, **Refresh** the report.
3. Generate the <a class="external-link " href="https://safety.veevavault.help/en/lr/01240" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PSMF document<i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>.

      <p><strong>Note</strong>: The <em>Annex H</em> report automatically excludes any <em>Product Registrations</em> for <em>Countries</em> that do not have a valid ISO country name.</p>
