When you export a Case to an E2B file, either for an outbound Transmission or directly from the Case page, Vault Safety maps all case data and documents to the appropriate E2B data elements. This article describes how Vault maps information to generate FDA E2B(R2) files.

See E2B Generation Data Mapping for details about all other E2B formats supported by Vault Safety.

FDA E2B(R2) Mapping

M.1.1 Types of Message in Batch For E2B(R2) exports in the FDA, EU Convention, and ICH formats, this element is always set to 1 for ICH ICSR.
M.1.2 Message Format Version Set to default value 2.1 for an ICSR, or 1.0 for an acknowledgment.
M.1.3 Message Format Release For E2B(R2) exports in the FDA, EU Convention, and ICH formats, this element is set to 1.
M.1.4 Batch Number The value in the E2B Message ID field on the Transmission (Submission or Distribution) record.
M.1.5 Batch Sender Identifier The value in the Origin ID field on the Transmission Profile associated with the Transmission (Submission or Distribution) record.
M.1.6 Batch Receiver Identifier The value in the Destination ID field on the Transmission Profile associated with the Transmission (Submission or Distribution) record.

ICH ICSR Message Header (message wrapper)

E2B Data Element Name Populated Value
N.2.r.4 Date of Message Creation If the Case is Approved or Closed, the date in the Approval Date field.
Otherwise, the date and time when the report was generated or transmitted, calculated with full precision down to the second.

A Administrative and Identification Numbers

A.1 Identification of the Case Safety Report

E2B Data Element Name Populated Value
A.1.0.1 Sender's (case) Safety Report Unique Identifier The value in the UID field on the Case Number object is populated in this element. Also, if the Safety Report Version field is populated on the Transmission (Submission or Distribution), then the <safetyreportversion> tag is populated with the text in the field.
A.1.1 Reporter's Country Code The ISO code populated in the Country field on the Reporter-type Case Contact.
A.1.2 Identification of the Country Where the Reaction / Event Occurred The value in the Event Country field on the primary Case Adverse Event.
A.1.3b Date of Transmission If the Case is Approved or Closed, the date in the Approval Date field.
Otherwise, the date and time when the report was generated or transmitted, calculated with full precision down to the second.
A.1.4 Type of Report The appropriate value is populated, based on the option selected in the Report Type field on the Case
  • 1: Spontaneous
  • 2: Study
  • 3: Other
  • 4: Unknown
A.1.5.1 Serious Set to 1 (Yes) if there is at least one (1) Case Adverse Event with seriousness criteria.
A.1.5.2 Seriousness Criteria Populated with seriousness tags corresponding to the criteria selected in the Seriousness field across all Case Adverse Events. A seriousness criteria tag is set to 1 (Yes) if there is at least one (1) Case Adverse Event with that seriousness criteria.

A.1.9 Does this case fulfill the local criteria for an expedited report
  • For non-combination product reports, Vault first attempts to use the Local Expedited Criteria (case_expedited__v) field on the Transmission (Submission or Distribution). If this field is not available on the Transmission, Vault then looks at the Expedited field on the Case.

    With either field, the following logic applies:

    1. 1 (15-day): Populated when the expedited field value is Yes
    2. 2 (non-expedited): Populated when the expedited field value is No or both expedited fields are blank
  • For combination product reports, the following logic applies:
    1. 4 (5-day): Populated when the Device Report Type field contains Public Health Risk.
    2. 5 (malfunction-only): Populated when the Device Report Type field is set to only Malfunction.
    3. If neither condition is met, Vault uses the same logic as non-combination product reports to populate 1 or 2.

This element is transmitted only when the Case Identifier Type (type__v) is set to Re-Transmittable or is blank.

A.1.11.2 Case Identifier(s) The value in the Case Identifier field on the Case Identifier object.

This element is transmitted only when the Case Identifier Type (type__v) is set to Re-Transmittable or is blank.
