How do you know if your Gateway Submission and/or ESG Submission has passed validation?

Answer:

Passing Submission files will receive an Acceptance Confirmation Receipt(a .txt file) through the Gateway /ESG.

If you do not receive an Acceptance Confirmation, or you do not receive a Second Acknowledgement(a .xml file) stating the errors received that caused the Submission to be rejected/fail validation, please contact [e-mail] so that the matter of the missing Gateaway Receipt can be investigated.

Also, OTC and prescription drugs, as well as homeopathic drugs now appear on the DailyMed once they have passed validation; though one cannot assume everything on the DailyMed is accurate.
