Simplifying XEVMPD to PMS Data Validation for EMA Migration: How LORENZ EPIC Reduces Manual Effort
Posted on March 12, 2026
The migration from XEVMPD to PMS is a critical step for regulatory affairs teams, but validating the results can quickly become a time-consuming and error-prone process.
Ensuring that data has been migrated correctly, grouped properly, and remains complete often requires extensive manual checks across multiple systems. This is exactly where LORENZ EPIC (EV PMS Integrity Check) comes in.
The challenge: Manual validation at scale
For many regulatory teams, XEVMPD to PMS migration validation means repeatedly asking the same questions:
- Is our XEVMPD data internally consistent?
- Has EMA grouped products correctly under the right Marketing Authorisations?
- Were the correct migration values selected?
- Has any data been lost along the way?
Answering these questions manually is not only resource-intensive, it also increases the risk of overlooking critical discrepancies.
A smarter approach to data validation
LORENZ EPIC is designed to take the burden out of migration validation by providing a structured, automated comparison between systems.
Instead of manually reviewing datasets, teams receive clear, side-by-side comparisons that immediately highlight inconsistencies between XEVMPD and PMS.
What EPIC delivers
- Clear comparison reports – Side-by-side views of XEVMPD data — both internally and against PMS — with discrepancies automatically highlighted.
- Data quality detection – Identification of hidden issues such as trailing spaces, line breaks in grouping fields, and missing or incorrect migrated values.
- Validation of EMA grouping logic – Checks against EMA’s official migration rules to ensure products are grouped correctly.
- Structured Excel reports – Color-coded outputs that are easy to review, share, and document.
- Interactive HTML analysis – A dynamic view that allows teams to filter by Marketing Authorisation fields and quickly analyse mismatches.
- Fully offline and secure – No installation, no system integration, and no additional validation burden — EPIC runs entirely offline.
Simple workflow, fast results
- Export your data from XEVMPD and PMS (FHIR XMLs)
- Send the files to LORENZ
- Receive validation outputs, including reports and an interactive view
- Review and refine, then repeat as needed
From data to insight: EPIC in Action
EPIC does not just show differences, it helps you understand them. You can:
Review grouping logic and instantly spot formatting issues like trailing spaces or line breaks
Track EV Code status, including leading product designation, withdrawal status, and discrepancy counts
Compare XEVMPD and PMS data directly, with flagged differences requiring attention
Analyse full datasets side by side, with clear color-coded highlighting across all products: XEVMPD internal differences in burgundy, XEVMPD–PMS MA differences in magenta, and package differences in pink
Reduce effort. Increase confidence.
XEVMPD to PMS migration validation does not have to mean weeks of manual cross-checking.
With LORENZ EPIC, regulatory affairs teams can:
- Reduce manual workload
- Detect hidden data quality issues
- Validate EMA grouping logic with confidence
- Accelerate the overall migration validation process
