HL7 Recourse Action — TCP/IP HL7 V2 Inbound Adapter

The following table lists and describes the properties that appear on the HL7 Recourse Action page of the Properties Editor accessed from the Connectivity Map. These properties define the actions the adapter takes when operations occur outside the configured constraints.

Table 15 Connectivity Map - HL7 Recourse Action

Name 

Description 

Action on No Response

The action the adapter takes when no ACK is received from the external system in the allotted time. The amount of time is determined by the Time To Wait For A Response property (see Communication Control). Select one of the following options:

  • Exit – The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

  • Resend – The adapter attempts to resend the message to the external system. The Resend option is only allowed when sequence numbering is in effect.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.

Action on Max No Response

The action the adapter takes when it attempts to send a message to the external system the maximum allowed number of times and does not receive any response (HL7 Application Acknowledgement) from the external system. The maximum number times the adapter sends a message without receiving a response is determined by the Max No Response property (see Communication Control). Select one of the following options:

  • Exit – The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.

Action on Max Failed Read Retry

The action the adapter takes after it has reached the empty read limit set by the Max Empty Read Retry property. This property is used by inbound adapters only. Select one of the following recourse options:

  • Exit – The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.

Action on Nak Received

The action the adapter takes when it receives an HL7 Application NAK from the external system. Select one of the following options: 

  • Resend – The adapter attempts to resend the message to the external system.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

  • Skip Message – The adapter remains connected, but writes the message to an error queue.


    Note –

    Do not set both the Action On NAK Received and Action On Max NAK Received properties to Skip Message.


    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.

Action on Max Nak Received

The action the adapter takes when the maximum number of HL7 Application NAKs have been received from the external system, as set by the Max NAK Receive Retry property (see Communication Control). Select one of the following options:

  • Exit – The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

  • Skip Message – The adapter remains connected, but writes the message to an error queue.

    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.


    Note –

    Do not set both the Action On NAK Received and Action On Max NAK Received properties to Skip Message.


Action on Max Nak Sent

The action the adapter takes when it has sent the maximum allowed number of NAKs to the external system, as set by the Max NAK Send Retry parameter (see Communication Control). Select one of the following options:

  • Exit – The adapter terminates its connection with the external system and shuts down.

  • Reset – The adapter closes its connection with the external system and goes through the connection scenario.

    This property is used for inbound Collaboration code.
