Use the Conformance Rules Tab
The Conformance Rules tab is available to the users for the E2B (R3), PMDA E2B (R3), and PMDA Device XML Report profiles. The Japanese DTD tab is not available to PMDA E2B (R3).
The tab allows user to configure the following parameters against each ICSR Element node for which data is transmitted (as it is applicable only for E2B export logic). It is available only for the ICSR Element Nodes (except for the Message & Batch Header tags - N) for which data is transmitted and is not available for parent element, as the attributes specific to validations are applicable only at root element level.
This configuration remains un-editable (read only) for all out-of-the-box E2B (R3) based ICSR template profiles (EMA, PMDA) but is allowed to be edited for custom/copied profiles. (The configuration data for out-of-the-box mapping profiles is available with the mapping of that profile).
The Conformance Rules tab data is also copied to the new profile when user copies any existing ICSR profile.
Editing Conformance rules is allowed only for custom profiles.
The following is the Conformance tab for PMDA profile:
