Serialization — L4 authority with L3 plant-floor handoff

TracePharma holds your corporate SGTIN serial pools and provisions ranges to packaging-line systems. Commissioning events flow back for reconciliation—via standard file export or REST API, compatible with the plant-floor serialization software you already operate.

How L3 and L4 work together

Level 3 systems commission and aggregate at the line. Level 4 is the corporate hub—serial authority, partner EPCIS, and compliance workflows. TracePharma bridges both without forcing you to replace your plant-floor stack or operate national regulatory hubs (L5).

Pool SGTIN serial pools Define GTIN-level pools with range boundaries and low-water visibility.
Reserve Create allocation Reserve a serial sub-range for a packaging line or contract packager run.
Deliver Provision to L3 Download a structured export or POST via API adapter to your line system.
Commission Line events return Commissioning EPCIS arrives inbound and tags against the allocation.
Close Reconcile gaps Scorecard surfaces open allocations and commissioning mismatches.

Where TracePharma fits

Your plant runs L3 line software. TracePharma is the L4 corporate hub—EPCIS, partners, and compliance. National hubs (L5) stay outside our product; we connect your trading partners.

  1. L3

    Plant serialization

    Line controllers, commissioning — software you already run

  2. L4

    TracePharma

    EPCIS repository, partner connectivity, exceptions, compliance workflows

  3. L5

    National / regulatory hubs

    FDA, EMVO, country hubs — not TracePharma; partners may connect upstream

Serial pool management

  • ✓ GTIN-scoped SGTIN pools with configurable range boundaries.
  • ✓ Allocator reserves non-overlapping sub-ranges per production run.
  • ✓ Open allocation tracking on manufacturer operations scorecard.

Provision methods

  • ✓ Structured file export for line-system import workflows.
  • ✓ REST API adapter for automated handoff to plant-floor software.
  • ✓ Per-system credentials and inbound connection linking.

Commissioning reconciliation

  • ✓ Inbound commissioning EPCIS auto-tagged to active allocations.
  • ✓ Gap detection when commissioned serials fall outside reserved ranges.
  • ✓ Commissioning reconciliation after each processed inbound file.

Works with your line systems

  • ✓ Designed for standard plant-floor serialization platforms—not a single-vendor lock-in.
  • ✓ Link allocations to plant floor connectors and packaging line GLNs.
  • ✓ Manufacturer and prepackager tenant profiles gate this capability.

Beyond provisioning

Serialization in TracePharma is EPCIS-native end to end—not a standalone UID module disconnected from ship and trace.

Outbound EPCIS generation

Ship commissioning and aggregation events to wholesaler customers with full transaction statements—so outbound drops carry TI/TH/TS your customers need for receiving.

Product trace

Serial-level history across commission, ship, return, and repack lineage chains—so investigations start from event data, not email threads.

Decommission & scrap

Destroy and sample workflows with EPCIS events—so QA audits include scrap and sample pulls in the compliance package.

EPCIS 2.0 repository

CBV 2.0 capture, queries, subscriptions, and OpenAPI—so integration teams query serial history without custom export jobs.

Plant floor telemetry

Line heartbeat API ties packaging throughput to operations scorecards—so serialization IT sees line health alongside outbound volume.

Prepack / repack lineage

Parent-child serial relationships across multi-hop repack chains—so contract packagers defend lineage across more than one repack hop.

L3 provisioning by line-system type

TracePharma provisions the L4 hub — your plant-floor line software stays in place. Demo and staging commands vary by provider; all paths allocate SGTIN ranges, link commissioning inbound, and reconcile EPCIS.

API surface (manufacturer tenants)

Integration teams can automate allocation lifecycle without the Filament UI.

  • GET /api/v1/l3/allocations
  • POST /api/v1/l3/allocations
  • GET /api/v1/l3/allocations/{id}/export
  • POST /api/v1/plant-floor/telemetry

Sanctum-authenticated, tenant-scoped. See operations documentation for payload schemas.
