INDUSTRIES WE SERVE
Pharmaceutical products EDI.
Handled by Roundhouse.
Pharmaceutical commercial EDI supports purchasing, shipment communication and invoicing between suppliers and business customers. Roundhouse handles the agreed order-processing documents, with a clearly defined scope for each account.
Let’s talk about your EDI
Keep commercial documents and product traceability distinct.
An order, invoice or shipment notice serves a different purpose from a product traceability event. We establish the commercial document requirements and the data your account expects. A functioning EDI order flow should not be presented as proof that separate serialization, traceability or regulatory obligations have been met.
A purchase order for different pack presentations.
A wholesale customer orders two presentations of a product. Each has its own identifier and pack definition. We preserve those references through the agreed shipping and billing workflow. Lot or date values must come from your approved records where required; we do not infer them from a product name.
We do the EDI work. Your team stays in control.
Confirm the products, identifiers, units, customer mapping and shipment data in scope. Any EPCIS exchange, serialization service or regulated traceability implementation requires a separate capability and requirements review. This page does not offer insurance-claim processing or clinical data exchange.
Roundhouse works through setup and testing, receives the agreed incoming documents, prepares outgoing records and reviews available technical responses. We bring exceptions back to your team for a decision. Our role is hands-on processing, not simply giving you software to operate.

| 856 | Ship Notice/Manifest (ASN) | Prepare the shipment record from confirmed packing and shipping details. |
| 810 | Invoice | Send approved billing quantities, prices and references. |
| 997 | Functional Acknowledgment | Review technical receipt and syntax status; this is not payment or commercial acceptance. |
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pharmaceutical products EDI FAQs
Does EDI order processing replace pharmaceutical traceability?
No. Commercial EDI documents and regulated product traceability have different purposes. Any additional traceability service must be assessed separately.
Can you process wholesale pharmaceutical purchase orders and invoices?
We can handle the agreed commercial EDI workflow once the account’s formats, data and scope have been confirmed.
Are patient records part of this service?
No. This page covers supplier business documents, not patient records or health insurance claims.
Do we need to operate your EDI software for pharmaceutical products orders?
No. Roundhouse performs the agreed EDI work. Your team provides accurate product and shipment data and approves commercial decisions; you do not need to install or learn our EDI software.
