Oubound HL7 from an XML File

[colmeda8064]

Hello Chris:

I following this thread becuase I am trying to accomplish the same. Actually rfeague and I work together. I followed your instructions but the out put file is exactly what the templates has with no changes to it. When I look in the channel messages it reads the XML but when it tries to write the mapping definition I created (PID:5, First Name and Last Name) it states "undifined". I have tried to put the variable definitions you sent to rfeaugue on variuos places even in the preproc but it sends back the same output.

Do you have a sample chanell and transformer that does this? Maybe I am putting definitions in the wrong place. One thing I noticed is that when I create an outbound channel it does not set the steps as I created as variables to the Destination Mappings list. Is this by design?

I appreciate your help. I am new to Mirth so I am trying to get the mechanics of it correct.

Thanks,
Charlie Olmeda

Alberto, thanks for your response. We were able to figure it out and process the XML file conversion to HL7.

I have one other question and that is how or where in Mirth do I define or create user defined segments (Z segments). I created an HL7 template with user define segments, but when I paste it in the transformer it does not recognize them.

Thanks for your help.
