Preset: cardinal_sftp SFTP

Most dispensers and distributors receive serialized product from Cardinal Health via SFTP. TracePharma onboarding wizard applies this preset. Operators focus on receiving workflows—not connector configuration from scratch.

Inbound interoperability

✓ SFTP inbound preset (cardinal_sftp) with partner adapter cardinal.
✓ EPCIS shipment files parsed into scan-first receiving and 3T matching.
✓ Exceptions surfaced when serials or transaction data are missing from the file.

Outbound & compliance

✓ Not applicable for typical pharmacy receive-only workflows.
✓ Distributors may ship downstream EPCIS from the same TracePharma tenant.
✓ VRS verification and FDA 3911 from received serial inventory.

Typical cutover steps

1 Request SFTP credentials from Cardinal DSCSA onboarding.
2 Apply the Cardinal SFTP inbound preset in TracePharma.
3 Test with a sample EPCIS shipment before cutover.

Best for
