Using Mapper and Javascript steps in same channel

[arumpke]

Can I successfully use both Mapper steps and Javascript steps in the same channel?

I have been using Mirth for a while, but all mapper steps. I would now like to add fields from IN1 (repeating) segments.

I have used NShaik's code:
var i = 0;
// Check if the InsuranceCarrierID existwhile (msg['ADT_A01.INSURANCE']['IN1']['IN1.3']['CX.1'][i] != null) {
// Get the insurance carrier id
tempInsuranceCarrierID = msg['ADT_A01.INSURANCE']['IN1']['IN1.3']['CX.1'][i].toString();
if (tempInsuranceCarrierID.length > 0) { ... }
// increment index to process the next patient insurance, if any
i = i + 1;}

and ChrisL's
suggestion to Use connectorMap.put('tempInsuranceCarrierID', tempInsuranceCarrierID);

but I can't seem to make this work. I'm sure it is my lack of Java knowledge.

I am going from a file to a database and all else works until I try to add these multiple IN1 segments. Unfortunately, I am still missing the piece to have the repeating fields populate my database.

Is there a way to use the javascript to have the fields listed in the Destination Source Mappings list or do I need to change everything to Javascript and INSERT directly into the table from there as described in the WIKI?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Absolutely! In fact, I have a handy-dandy example channel that I'll be more than happy to e-mail to ya. I'm at [email protected]

Hi bob D,

would be great to share your channel example with the Mith community via File Repository since the documentation on Mirth is not overwhelming

Cheers,

OK - I submitted the channel to the Inbound Channel repository. It's called LLP2File. I don't see it yet but perhaps it needs to be looked at by the admins first? It's all a mystery to me.
