Handling ASN Files from your Wholesaler in July 2015

By Raymond Lake posted 11-07-2014 10:20

  

How will you be handling ASN (Advance Ship Notice) files sent by your wholesaler via EDI beginning in July 2015 pursuant to Title II of the DSCSA.   Apparently, ASN files will not be maintained by your wholesaler and "dispensers" will be required to store them.   ASNs will contain TH – Transaction History, TI – Transaction Information and TS – Transaction Statement data in regards to product pedigree.  See more info. here: http://www.healthcaredistribution.org/ir_issues/pedigree.asp   Companies such as AXWAY and TRACELINK are capable of handling such transactional data and I am wondering why they are not banging my door down with their solutions at this time.

Thanks,
Ray
