MSV3 ERP & WMS integration for pharmaceutical wholesalers

tiger.PHARMA connects the wholesaler’s MSV3 gateway with product master data, customer terms, inventory, order management, warehouse and dispatch, from pharmacy order to structured response.

The interface becomes useful only when PZN, available quantity, price and status are consistently taken from the authoritative systems. MSV3.tiger provides mapping, validation, routing and traceable processing.

Topics we master

Separate MSV3 functions from additional data integrations

A project function matrix identifies the messages actually supported by the endpoint, the information supplied by ERP or pharmacy software and the downstream processes requiring another interface. This makes data transport and commercial decisions traceable.

    MSV3 timeout: resolving an uncertain order

    A missing response does not prove that no order was created. Support must reconcile the order reference, transmission time and known status before repeating an order. Uncontrolled retries can create duplicates.

    • Separate transport errors, authentication failures and business rejection
    • Use stable references and defined duplicate checks for retries
    • Assign uncertain orders to an owner for resolution
    • Reconcile recovery against ERP orders and responses

    PZN, stock and allocation: what can actually be ordered

    Physical stock, released stock and the quantity still available to a customer may differ. tiger.PHARMA structures how quarantine, reservations, allocations and outstanding orders affect ordering. The interface must obtain its answer from the appropriate source system.

    • Validate PZN mapping and units before creating an order
    • Make stock age and refresh intervals explicit
    • Test concurrent requests for the last available units

    Architecture and ownership

    Map systems, data ownership and responsibilities across the order flow.

    • Separate pharmacy system, gateway, ERP, OMS and WMS
    • Define sources for PZN, stock, price and customer terms
    • Separate synchronous enquiries from downstream processing
    • Define retry, error and continuity paths

    Product, customer and commercial rules

    Connect technical messages with the wholesaler’s trading rules.

    • Validate PZN, product status and assortment eligibility
    • Resolve customer account, site and MSV3 credentials
    • Apply prices, discounts, minimum quantities and exclusions
    • Control allocations and restricted availability

    Inventory, order and warehouse

    Prevent avoidable overselling and duplicate order creation.

    • Distinguish available, reserved and blocked stock
    • Use unique references and idempotent order creation
    • Return warehouse and dispatch status
    • Handle partial supply, back order and cancellation

    Testing and monitoring

    Controlled end-to-end cases demonstrate normal and failure behaviour.

    • Positive, boundary and error scenarios
    • Correlation IDs and appropriate logging
    • Response-time, error-rate and stuck-order alerts
    • Regression testing for releases and changes

    Controlled launch

    Scale from sandbox through pilot to production.

    • Acceptance criteria and test environment
    • Pilot with selected pharmacy customers
    • Reconcile initial live orders
    • Phased rollout and hypercare

    Assess your MSV3 project

    For an initial assessment, describe your role as supplier, pharmacy or network, your software and your objective. A technical discussion then defines the interface scope, implementation effort and an appropriate demonstration or pilot.

    • Assess an MSV3 connection: identify systems, assortment and target pharmacies
    • Request a white-label demo: describe brand, membership and functions
    • Automate PZN purchasing: outline search effort, suppliers and approval rules

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    Can the solution connect to existing ERP and warehouse systems?

    Yes. The integration is designed around available APIs, master data, commercial rules and operational responsibilities, then verified with controlled end-to-end cases.

    Can tiger.PHARMA support ongoing operation?

    Yes. The agreed service can include onboarding, monitoring, support, release coordination, reporting and continuous improvement.

    What should I do when an MSV3 order response is missing?

    A missing response does not prove that no order was created. Support must reconcile the order reference, transmission time and known status before repeating an order. Uncontrolled retries can create duplicates.

    Why can warehouse stock differ from the orderable quantity?

    Physical stock, released stock and the quantity still available to a customer may differ. tiger.PHARMA structures how quarantine, reservations, allocations and outstanding orders affect ordering. The interface must obtain its answer from the appropriate source system.
