Any pharmacy management system can submit a standardized set of exported data in a number of formats including CSV to TransactRx IRIS which converts the data into the required HL7 version and submits the data to the appropriate state immunization registry according to the state's requirements.

In addition to the data conversion and transmission components of the service there are a number of enrollment, testing and certification services also provided to make submission of immunization records as easy as possible for any size pharmacy.
