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 Health Canada E2B(R2) files.

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

    • The Case Report Type field is set to a Study report type. That is, the E2B Code on the Report Type Controlled Vocabulary is set to 2.
    • The Case Study Type field meets either of the following conditions:
      1. Set to a Clinical Trial study type. That is, the E2B Code on the Study Type Controlled Vocabulary is set to 1.
      2. The Study Type field on the Case is left blank.
M.1.2 Message Format Version Set to default value 2.1 for an ICSR, or 1.0 for an acknowledgment.
