Topics we master
What is MSV3?
MSV3 is an internet-based ordering method developed for structured processes between pharmacies and pharmaceutical suppliers. The pharmacy works in its familiar system while requests, orders and supported responses are transmitted electronically.
- Orders from the pharmacy system
- Structured PZN and quantity data
- Availability and order responses within the agreed scope
- Less manual re-entry and fewer media breaks
MSV3 for pharmacies
For pharmacies, MSV3 is a procurement route. Stable supplier connections, clear responses and integration with purchasing and goods receipt matter more than a long list of credentials.
- Community and branch pharmacies
- Hospital pharmacies
- Online and mail-order pharmacies
- Pharmacy groups and cooperatives
MSV3 for pharmaceutical wholesalers
The supplier side must consistently connect customers, addresses, assortments, prices, terms, stock, orders, restrictions and logistics to the MSV3 response.
- Full-line and pharmaceutical wholesalers
- Specialist wholesalers and importers
- Hospital and specialist suppliers
- Cooperatives with central commercial rules
MSV3 for pharmaceutical manufacturers
Manufacturers can offer direct ordering from pharmacy systems when customer eligibility, PZN assortment, pricing, allocation, order intake, fulfilment and responses form one controlled model.
- Direct pharmacy ordering
- Launch and specialist assortments
- ERP, order management and 3PL hand-off
- White-label manufacturer service
Client, server, gateway and API
The client sends from the pharmacy system; the MSV3 server receives for the supplier. A gateway adds routing, mapping, business rules and logging, while APIs connect ERP, WMS, OMS, PIM or CRM.
- Client in the pharmacy workflow
- Server on the supplier side
- Gateway as integration and control layer
- APIs and EDI for adjacent systems
Selecting an MSV3 provider
Compare the actual operating model: supported systems and messages, data ownership, integration, security, monitoring, support, onboarding and transparent one-off and recurring costs.
- Compatibility matrix and test cases
- Product, customer, price and stock sources
- Hosting, service levels and fallback
- Scalable pharmacy onboarding
- Defined setup and operating costs
Setup, credentials and go-live
Confirm the commercial relationship and customer identity, exchange credentials securely, configure the endpoint and test availability, ordering, rejection, partial delivery and downstream processing before release.
- Customer and delivery address
- Secure credentials and permissions
- Controlled test cases
- ERP and warehouse reconciliation
- Monitoring, support and fallback
ERP, WMS and order processing
The real integration starts behind the endpoint. Orders must be validated, assigned, commercially checked and handed to warehouse or fulfilment, while responses originate from authoritative data.
- ERP: customer, order, price and invoice
- WMS/3PL: stock, reservation and dispatch
- OMS: status, split and exceptions
- PIM: PZN and assortment status
- Separate technical and business errors
White label and managed service
White label presents the service under the supplier's brand. Managed service adds agreed operational responsibility. Brand, data, hosting, support, incidents, releases and change approval must remain explicit.
- Supplier-branded access
- Tenant and commercial separation
- Monitoring and incident response
- Release and security process
- Measured onboarding and adoption
