Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Try:

Code:

message=message.replace("|ORU|", "|ORU^R01|");
message=message.replace(/\|2\.3/i,&#039;|2.5|&#039;);
return message;

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Sir,

Oh, it changed. I'm having a status of REJECTED.

Thanks!

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Code:

message=message.replace("|ORU|", "|ORU^R01|");
message=message.replace(/\|2\.3\|/i,&#039;|2.5|&#039;);
return message;

Try that - is REJECTED expected?

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Chris,

the code you gave did not convert 2.3 to 2.5. The REJECTED status awhile ago was due to the previous code given. When REJECTED, it is not displaying the Encoded Message.

Thanks!

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Did the original code (Alberto's) work ok for you?

**Bobbit** · 01-05-2007, 01:31 PM

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

No, sir. It resulted in a REJECTED status.

Thanks

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

What does your filter look like? Is it checking a message type/version?

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Please, could you post your Channel definition, and an message input example ?

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Can you export your channel as well?

**albertosaez** · 01-06-2007, 01:59 AM

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

I don't know why the message is set to REJECTED...

But, I've tested your message in a simple channel, and and all works fine with the next preprocessor:

Code:

message=message.replace(/\|2\.3/i,&#039;|2.5&#039;);
return message;

In the message you've posted there was no '|' ending at the version number, and the message type was set to ORU^R01, so the first step is no longer needed.

**chrisl** · 01-06-2007, 03:12 AM

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Bobbit - The rejected status is due to your Filter script rejecting the message. Check your code there and make sure you are using the right mappings for the message type. If you wrote your filter against version 2.3, but are changing the message to 2.5, you might run into issues with different segment orders/names/etc. causing your filter to reject otherwise valid messages.

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Thanks Chris and Alberto, it's working now. The code in my filter is checking MSH 9 for R01 which was in version 2.3. I just drag the one that came from version 2.5 at it worked. Thank you very much!

**jimkski** · 01-31-2007, 10:59 AM

Re: Changing HL7 version 2.3 to 2.5

Quick question:

This thread seems to indicate that you only have to change the Message Type string and Version ID in the MSH segment and Mirth will automatically convert the message between HL7 versions. Is that right? Does it handle all the work of mapping between changed data types in the various HL7 versions? How does it decide how to map from one representation to another?

Thanks.
