Schema & Custom Rules Validation

EPCIS File Validation

Built-In Confidence for Every Data Exchange

Updated on: 04/02/2025

Sending or receiving EPCIS data without knowing if it's valid creates risk—risk of compliance failures, operational delays, and costly rework. That’s why we’ve enhanced DataX with a built-in EPCIS file validation engine, giving you confidence that your data is correct before it ever moves.

Whether you're exchanging data with a manufacturer, distributor, or downstream provider, you now have a powerful system for automatically checking EPCIS structure and logic—right out of the box.

Schema Validation by Default

Every EPCIS file that moves through DataX—on both inbound and outbound connections—is now automatically checked for compliance with the standard EPCIS schema. That means fewer failed exchanges, fewer support tickets, and a cleaner, more compliant supply chain.

Included by default:

EPCIS schema compliance checks
Timestamp sequencing validation
Pre-send and post-receipt evaluations

Custom Rules, Tailored to You

Need more granular control? DataX supports custom rule sets at both the partner and object level, allowing you to enforce value constraints, required fields, and logic specific to your business or trading relationships.

Common use cases include:

Requiring certain event types
Blocking events missing specific identifiers
Validating against partner-specific field requirements

Our team will work with you in a quick setup session to define and implement these rules, ensuring your validation engine fits your operational needs perfectly.

Compliance and Trust, Automated

With these validation features in place, DataX provides a strong foundation for meeting DSCSA requirements and maintaining trust across your supply chain network. Errors are caught before they cause disruptions, and your team can spend less time troubleshooting and more time focusing on what matters.
