Framing refers to the characters that mark the start and end of an HL7 message (or other types of framed messages). Most HL7 services and operations have a Framing setting that allows the user to define this framing. The most common choices are available as defaults, but with the AsciiMM/NN setting, components can be configured to recognize any framing characters.
HL7
We have an incoming ADT adapter and the ACK MODE is set to IMMEDIATE. This is what the docs say:
Send back (commit) ACK reply message immediately upon receipt of the inbound message.
An inbound ACK shows up as a square in the visual trace. These do not. How can I view them?

Did some searching online with no luck. In Studio, is it possible to add comments to .HL7 schema files? For instance
//or maybe this is
<MessageStructure name='ACK' definition='MSH~MSA~[~ERR~]'/>

We want to isolate the storage of our CCDAs from our HL7 V2 data, but keep them under the same namespace. From my understanding, I should create a new database then store those classes related to CCDAs in that database. Is this the correct approach?

I'm doing some Schema changes. I used our existing standard schema as a base, which was already based on 2.3. So let's call our existing one Custom.MHC.Schema (based on 2.3). I created Custom.MHC.Schema.Advanced (based on Custom.MHC.Schema) and copied down one of the code tables then made a change to it.
When I ran a message through, the code table change didn't show up. I noticed in the message viewer that the DocType is still Custom.MHC.Schema:ADT_A01 but the DocType Category is Custom.MHC.Schema.Advanced.

We had a major problem recently where a participant was sending unexpected data. It was not enough to throw an error or warning in the actual trace, but when examining the message in the viewer it did show the following:
Build Map Status = 'ERROR <EnsEDI>ErrMapSegUnrecog: Unrecognized Segment 4:'CON' found after segment 3 (CON)'
How can I query for these or be notified of them? This caused major ramifications but we did not notice it. I have Managed Services investigating but I want to cover all my bases.

I have a tool I absolutely love for HL7 v2 analysis and manipulation. It's called 7edit. I'm wondering if there is anything similar for HL7v3/CDA/CCD. I know it is considerably more complex, but I still have hope.
So far the best resource I've found is http://www.cdapro.com/. I'd love to hear anyone else's tips for tools or resources.

Hi,
IHAC who is trying to connect Ensemble to Quadramed for HL7 messaging, however, it seems that in order to do this, the following is required:
"we open a passive connection to Quadramed and then listen for a connection request from Quadramed, once this is established we then send messages"
Has anyone done this before? Is this possible with the standard HL7 components?
Thanks,
Steve.

Hi everyone!
I have imported a schema (HL7 v2.5 XML schema) using the "Ensemble > Interoperate > XML" and I have built a Web Service that receives a string with an XML document that follows the schema. I have used EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document as follows to consume the string and produce the XML vDoc:

Presenter: Matt Spielman
Task: Use the FHIR standard with HealthShare-based solutions
Approach: Provide an overview of how HealthShare will support the evolving FHIR
The next major release of HealthShare will be the first version to support the emerging HL7 FHIR standard. This presentation will discuss InterSystems’ involvement with the FHIR standard, detail the new FHIR functionality, and review our long term plans for FHIR in the HealthShare platform.
Content related to this session, including slides, video and additional learning content can be found here. Please note that this content is available only to HealthShare customers and attendees of the Global Summit. On the learning web site you will be prompted for your Global Summit credentials to access this content.
What is the recommended approach to handle the following scenario: Large number of HL7 messages are serviced via Ensemble. Those messages are then transformed and routed to an Operation which calls a web service which does a number of different activities. If will do address normalization, location geo coding, MPI lookup and resolution, and insert into a SQL Server database to stage for an analytics product. Unfortunately all of this work takes time and the first thing that happens in the web service is a lock taken out on the Patien in SQL Server.

I have a service named FTP_In that is of class EnsLib.HL7.Service.FTPService. It picks up files from multiple subfolders and sends them to an EnsLib.HL7.MsgRouter.RoutingEngine. What I want to do is somehow capture the subfolder as a variable for use in the routing rules. Is this possible?
Let's say I have the following files and directory structure on my FTP Server

I have had a few questions about the number of HL7 messages Ensemble can handle lately, so i thought i would draw people's attention to the benchmark report
https://community.intersystems.com/documentation/ensemble-and-healthshare-hl7v2-message-throughput-0
It describes the throughput of HL7 messages with realistic messages and routing.
