# Generate E2B Readable Renditions

Safety maps case data to generate Individual Case Safety Reports (ICSRs) in compliant E2B XML formats. To support transmission document review, inspections, audits, and other routine quality checks, you can generate readable renditions of these files. These renditions offer clear organization and structure of the content. Renditions are available for all Vault Safety-supported <a href="/en/lr/01288/">E2B(R2) and E2B(R3) formats</a>.

Generating readable renditions of E2B files is available when:

* The source file type is an E2B XML.
* The document classification is either:
  * _Case > Source Adverse Event Report_
  * _Case > Individual Case Safety Report_
* The document type is not:
    * EU MIR XML
    * FDA eMDR

You can download generated renditions as PDFs.

### Prerequisite

To use this feature, your Admin must <a href="/en/lr/773989/">enable E2B Readable Renditions</a>.

## Readable Rendition Data Formatting

To display the E2B information clearly, Vault formats data types as follows:

<table>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Data Type</th>
            <th>E2B Coded Format</th>
            <th>Readable Rendition Format</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
        <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>Date</td>
            <td><code>YYYYMMDD</code>, for example <code>20240930</code></td>
            <td><code>DDMMMYYYY</code>, for example <code>30SEP2024</code>
            <br>When full dates are not available, Vault populates partial dates.
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Date and Time</td>
            <td><code>YYYYMMDDhhmmss-Z</code>, for example <code>20240930103319-0400</code></td>
            <td><code>DDMMMYYYY hh:mm:ss</code>, for example <code>30SEP2024 10:33:19</code>
            <br>When full dates are not available, Vault populates partial dates.
        </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Boolean</td>
            <td><code>TRUE</code></td>
            <td><code>Yes</code></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Boolean</td>
            <td><code>FALSE</code></td>
            <td><code>No</code></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>E2B Code</td>
            <td><code>N</code>, for example <code>1</code></td>
            <td><code>Code [N]</code>, for example <code>Spontaneous [1]</code></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Text</td>
            <td>Vault exports text as it appears in the applicable <em>Case</em> field.</td>
            <td>Vault exports text as it appears in the applicable <em>Case</em> field.</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Number</td>
            <td>Vault exports numbers as they appear in the applicable <em>Case</em> field.</td>
            <td>Vault exports numbers as they appear in the applicable <em>Case</em> field.</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

## Generate E2B Readable Renditions

You can generate readable renditions of E2B files in XML format through the _Library_ or the _Submissions & Distributions_ section of _Cases_ or _Localized Cases_. To generate a readable rendition, navigate to the _Transmission_ document you want to render more readable and, from the **All Actions** menu, select **Generate E2B Readable Rendition**.

Vault sends an email and displays a notification when the readable document is ready for viewing.

## Download E2B Readable Rendition

You can download readable renditions of E2B files in PDF format. Download files from Vault notification messages or:

1. Navigate to an E2B document with a generated _E2B Readable Rendition_ PDF.
2. From the <a href="/en/lr/9753/">Doc Info page</a>, select the **Document Files** panel icon.
3. Expand the _Renditions_ section.
4. Select the **E2B Readable Rendition**.

Vault downloads the PDF to your local computer.
