Multiple FT1 within DFT^P03

[Scott Smith]

I need to create a separate DFT^P03 fro each FT1.  I think I have the xlate built thanks to some other posts here, but I don’t if my testing looks right (I have never done of of these)

Any suggestions?

Here is my xlate (just the FT1 iterate):

ITERATE

PATHCOPY 1(%g1).0(0).FT1 -> 1(%g1).0(0).FT1

COPY @id -> 1(%g1).0(0).FT1.00356

CONTINUE

SUPPRESS

Here is my test result:

there is 5 FT1’s in the message

I am only including the first 2 iterations

Couple things.  In your xlate, the SUPPRESS should be at the top of the xlate and the CONTINUE within the ITERATE for the FT1:

SUPPRESS

…

INTERATE

PATHCOPY 1(%g1).0(0).FT1 -> 1(0).0(0).FT1    *** You don’t need the %g1 in the destination as you only want one FT1…it won’t repeat.

COPY =1 -> {1(0).0(0).FT1.00355[0]}  *** This will put a 1 in the sequence number…since you only want one FT1…it won’t repeat and will always be 1.

CONTINUE

Warning…there was talk in earlier posts about PATHCOPY in iterates not clearing fields.  You may want to switch to individual COPY statements.

Scott,

Your results don’t look right. If you do this correctly, you should end up with one HL7 message for each FT1 segment, each message having the same MSH, EVN, PID, PV1, but a different FT1. Your test message with 5 FT1 segments should have yielded 5 separate messages.

I have done something similar in the past, and I believe that your SUPPRESS action should be at the very beginning of your Xlate. I don’t know how your HL7 variant is structured, but your Xlate should look like this:

SUPPRESS

PathCopy  MSH to MSH

PathCopy  EVN to EVN

PathCopy  PID to PID

PathCopy  PV1 to PV1

ITERATE  (on FT1 group)

PATHCOPY 1(%g1).0(0).FT1 -> 1(%g1).0(0).FT1

COPY @id -> 1(%g1).0(0).FT1.00356

ITERATE (on IN1 group)  if you have insurance segments

CONTINUE      (This statement will send each completed message)

I hope this helps.

thanks guys.  I got it working now.  I moved suppress to beginning and moved continue to after second iterate.

[Levy Lazarre]

I wasn’t paying attention, Brian is correct about not needing the iteration variable in the destination.

For the variant that I used, I simply did

PathCopy 0(0).FT1(%s1) –> 0(0).FT1(0)

[Scott Smith]

I had already fixed, but after I posted code online.
