Configuring the Timer Servlet for Adverse Event Report Submission

Regulatory users can submit MDR adverse event reports (AER) to FDA. You can configure a timer servlet to submit MDRs. This feature requires a timer servlet but is commented out. You can follow these steps to uncomment the servlet and the properties that it uses.

  1. Open the web.xml file located in the warutil directory.
  2. Configure the web.xml file.

    <context-param id="ContextParam_14">
         <param-name>ematrix.timer.agent</param-name>
         <param-value>Test Everything</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <context-param id="ContextParam_15">
         <param-name>ematrix.timer.agent.key</param-name>
         <param-value></param-value>
    </context-param> 
    <context-param id="ContextParam_16">
         <param-name>ematrix.timer.interval1</param-name>
         <param-value>60</param-value>
    </context-param>
     <context-param id="ContextParam_19">
     <param-name>ematrix.timer.command1</param-name>
            <param-value>execute program com.dassault_systemes.enovia.lsa.lpq.aer.services.trigger.ReportGeneration -method checkFDAAcknowledgement pending</param-value>
    </context-param>

  3. Uncomment the following lines by removing the <!-- and --> from the beginning and end. If these lines are not in the file, add them. 

    <!--Timer Servlet - see mapping below
      	<servlet id="Servlet_19">
         		<servlet-name>TimerServlet</servlet-name>
         		<servlet-class>com.matrixone.servlet.TimerServlet</servlet-class>
         		<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
      	</servlet>
-->
<!--
<servlet-mapping id="ServletMapping_16">
         		<servlet-name>TimerServlet</servlet-name>
         		<url-pattern>/servlet/timer/*</url-pattern>
      	</servlet-mapping>
-->

    The user who is assigned as the agent must have the business administrator permissions to complete file check-in.

  4. Save the web.xml file.
  5. Run the warutil to create the archive files with the updated file included.
