      We are trying to kill messages that have the “MIC” message segment.  I have added an IF, SUPPRESS statement to the XLT.  Can you confirm if this is correct and sufficient?  Much thanks.

      MSH|^~&|MIC|COCPN|||200701310030||ORU|2306804..LAB.COCPN|P|2.1

      note:  I’ve attached an image of my XLT with the RED portions as the statements i’ve added.

          Hi Duy,

          I think that will work but it is always better to KILL your message BEFORE the xlate thread. The reason for this is that the xlate is a possible bottleneck in any interface and if you can reduce the amount of work it has to do by doing it in a tcl proc all the better.

          I would recommend you use a TPS or pre xlate TPS to check the field and then KILL it prior to the xlate.

          Regards

          Garry

            Yes, I agree using TCL before the XLATE is more efficient as well…but my TCL is not up to part yet and this filter is requested by people in my organization.

            Thanks!
