EPIC said the first part of the MSH9 is the actual trigger, and the second part is the message structure/format I believe. So that means I would essentially want to look at the first part. Does that sound right? Like you said…Read more

I tried single and I still only get the first line and the rest are cut off. I can’t seem to get PWIM to see the (CR) as a reason to move down to the next line, even when I put x0D as the global termination on the VRL config.

Any other thoughts I could try?

Thank you,
Jon

I do have it now storing into a list and if I add multiple outputs to the xlate like James recommended, I can then grab each one individually by calling the variable I’ve saved them into.

I’m…Read more

Thanks for the response. As I mentioned, I have very little X12 experience so bear with me. No I am not stripping the ISA off. In the testing tool on the X12 tab when I run the file it notices the envelope and I’m able to see all the data from the raw message, but you are saying I still need to strip it off?

Part of the problem will be I…Read more

Thanks everyone, just wanted to see if I was the only one having issues. My company is slowing removing VPN access, so the only option I have is Citrix RDP to my primary workstation. I’ll explore the possibility of having the application published directly and see if that makes a difference.

Thank you.

Charlie,

I am doing it inside of an XLATE yes. Maybe I was trying to over simplify it. Using the screenshot I provided before I essentially need to strip off the top 3 lines of the file, and process any line after that, but in the middle header line that I strip, I…Read more

I read in a line at a time from the inbound file, so I thought it was a separate instance each time. When I echo the variable it only shows up for the new line coming in that the date is present, otherwise it is blank for the remaining lines in the inbound file, when I try to send it to the outbound VRL.

So when I encounter that piece…Read more

Jim,
To answer your question, the outbound is just tab separated VRL that takes data from the inbound and places it in the correct locations to be consumed by the destination system. Nothing fancy at all, just a line at a time writing to a tab separated file, 1 to 1, so one output for each input (after the…Read more

Slightly off topic, have either of you had a problem deleting a Database Schema (through Config in Site Options)? I created on an additional one by mistaken and just want to clean things up, when I…Read more

I believe I have figured out a solution. You’ve been a huge help and I appreciate the assistance. I will keep everyone updated on the progress.

Thank you everyone for your advice.

Thank you,
Jon

My apologies if you thought I didn’t read your last post. I did in fact read it I was just trying alternative ways of finding my solution when I couldn’t get it working. I did try the $inp without the split and it doesn’t return any data (I believe because the inbound unformatted text), and I have been returning dispList after the loop…Read more

I think I am thinking about this wrong.

What I have is working but when you said:
“Now you have a buffer of VRL records with fields separated by |
From this point you could make it new-line delimited and write it to a file like:  write_file myfile [join $vrlBuf]
or process here like:  foreach rec $vrlBuf {do something}”

How would I…Read more

Your suggestion seems to send a line at a time based on each line of the document. I was looking for almost what I had with my previous configuration (with your help) where I used the vrlbuff and appended everything so I get each ****** section separated by pipes and sent. I’d like each section to go into an Xlate (or a file where I’ll…Read more

Thank you again

Good to hear from you. That appears to have worked, I appreciate the advice. Why did x0d seem to work when other windows termination commands didn’t? I’ve seen everything from rn to , and others and none of them seemed to work.

Thank you,
Jon

Finally had some time to work on this. I like this approach as well. Thank you for the input. I used what you listed here but I’m still not quite getting what I want. I see it in the buffer but it seems to be one large string.

I’ve added a for each thinking I could send each one out with continue but it seems to want to send the whole…Read more

I finally had a chance to take a look at your suggestion (Scott). I feel like it should be working but it appears to only ever do the first foreach (just the *****..). I’m using the TPS testing tool to test this and pointing it to a text document in the data folder (that I provided in a previous post), could that be why it’s not showing…Read more

I’ve been working on trying to get this to work but I am still running into an issue where it only seems to see the ***** (first line) and stops after that. I’ve tried r n and xd but whatever I do it seems to do line 1, and stop.

Anyone have any suggestions?…Read more

I appreciate the help.

Thank you,
Jon

So you’d start with something like this:

set msg [msgget…Read more

I was also rummaging around looking for a solution to the problem using VRL. I’ve seen a previous post that is similar that you had replied on, but didn’t quite lead me to a solution. When I try to configure a VRL it’s able to get the first line of the ****… but the next line is white space so it seems to terminate and I can’t seem to get…Read more

Thank you for the response. I like your idea about splitting it up based on each *****… section. I’ve been trying to do it using “split” but I am not getting anything back. Any ideas on how you’d approach this?

Ultimately I would love it in a formatted file, I’ve asked them to see if this was possible but haven’t heard back.

Thank you,
Jon

That is something similar to what I was starting to do before I went the pre-proc TCl route.

Thank you all again, hopefully this chain will be helpful to others in the future.

Thank you,
Jon

I’ve actually done this with a TCL Pre-Proc on the route using the regsub. The issue actually appears to be not the solutions provided (because they all are workable solutions) but how the data is dealt with in Cloverleaf.

This is true with or without BulkCopy. After some conversation with Jim, it appears this is one of the only…Read more

This suggestion still didn’t work even with the bulkcopy completely disabled. Stange issue, I will work with Jim on this to see what the issue might be.

Thank you for the assistance, it’s greatly appreciated everyone.

Thank you,
Jon

I appreciate the input but that didn’t fix the issue.

Thank you,
Jon

I am using a bulkcopy as there are very few minor changes in the xlate.

I tried assigning the value to a variable before the bulkcopy like you suggested and nulled the destination field after the bulkcopy before trying to put the new value in. String map nor regsub seem to work.

It’s odd too that even when I disabled the bulkcopy it still…Read more

When I try a string map I end up getting the first part of the list, no “and” and the rest is blank. Here is what I tried:

It looks like I’ll just have to do a pre-proc TCL for this.

Thank you,
Jon[/code]

I had though about that as well. I might play around with my options and see.

Thank you,
Jon

Thank you,
Jon

I’m on 6.0.1.0, are you taking a newer version than that?

It still splits it out into two separate fields.

Thank you,
Jon

Good call. I am working with HL7 yes I did notice that when I echoed the result. I just didn’t know why it was doing that but now common sense is kicking in for me and that is why. How would you go about doing it in an Xlate, or would you just create a pre-proc TCL script and be done with it?

Thank you,
Jon

I’ve been reading back on some of posts and have a few questions. Is tclMail integrated into Cloverlead automatically (I don’t see it in lib)?

I’m running on Server 2008 r2. Version 6.0.1.0 of Cloverleaf.
Maybe I am missing something along the way and over thinking this but there isn’t something I can use to send a simple email on a…Read more

They can control the connection and your assumptions are correct. I will have to see if their end automatically sets the connection to show UP status instead of waiting until another message comes through.

I haven’t used the msi stats yet but I will take a look and see what I can make happen. I appreciate the suggestion, that sounds like…Read more

Good idea. I can also look for the message types I want as well. I wasn’t sure how to send an email notification via TCL, but this should lead me in the right direction.

I appreciate the input.

Thank you,
Jon

Are you saying one of the included procs, or just code up something that looks for those other specific message types and kills them in a pre-proc?

Thank you,
Jon

Thank you

I haven’t built the HRL yet, I’ll investigate how to do this since I haven’t had to in the past.

I did not escape the n or r – I should try this in my CONCAT. 0A is the hex for new line so I could use that too possibly?

Thank you,
Jon

I haven’t had to use an HRL configuration yet, does this allow me to do new lines for each OBX5 iteration I come across?

Thank you,
Jon

It looks like we’ve figured it out. We had to select dbo schema and add all the values in order to get it to work.

I think we have what we need. I appreciate the support.

Thank you,
Jon

Thank you for the response. Yes when I clicked the down arrow there was no database listed in there. Although I remember db_writeaccess and other rights accounts being what was available under schema  (I didn’t see much actual DB structure available), maybe I’ll try creating a view on that database (we are just testing so it’s just a…Read more

No problem. Here is an example of the data (with subs for data):

I tried this just now and it still doesn’t locate the string I’m looking for. I think it has something to do with the formatting br. ?

Any other suggestions?

Thank you,
Jon

Thanks for the response. That’s what I was thinking I was going to have to do. What does this feature I was mentioning accomplish then?

Thank you,
Jon

I know this is an older thread but you had an interesting suggestion that might be helpful in something I am trying to do. I want to allow only A31 messages with a certain word to go down one route, and be blocked on all the other routes. Right now I am just routing by what kind of ADT it is and filtering the word in MSH13 by a pre-proc…Read more

Thank you for the help. I appreciate it.
