To achieve this, Oracle Argus Safety Flexible code list is enhanced with additional values in Console > Code Lists > Flexible re-categorization > REPORTING_DESTINATION_TYPE:

  • The new MFDS attribute is added.
  • The existing E2B(R3) attribute is updated for the additional values.

It is recommended to set the Console > Reporting Destination > Local Company Contact > Sender Type according to the Sender Type, so that C.3.1 will be transmitted as 3 (Health professional) and C.3.1.KR.1 will be transmitted as corresponding MFDS attribute value.

What this means to business users: No additional data entry required (and derived from configuration).
