I would like to delay a send of an HL7 message by x number of secs. In this particular instance. I am getting information from a ACK to a different system. I want to add the value from the ACK to the HL7 message going to another location.

I got the data saving and can pull but need to delay the HL7… How or can I do this.

Thanks…

  Hi Tom.
  
  I’m not sure what you are trying to do, but can’t you send the message to application A, add the ACK data into the message and continue to application B?
  
  Normally a message is deleted when sent and a good ACK received, but all the routing and UPOCs are in place to do the above.

  I was waiting for data to be populated into an sql table in a particular column.
  
  I put in a while statement in the beginning of my tcl proc looking for the value.
  
  Then I ran through the sql query.
  
  If there was no value found I killed the connection and went the through the while until data was found in the column I was expecting.
  
  I then was able to complete my proc and send the appropriate data to my xlate…
