HL7 Recourse Action Settings

Provides the HL7 Recourse Action settings. The HL7 Recourse Action section determines the actions the adapter takes when operations occur outside the configured constraints.

Action On No Response

Specifies the action taken by the adapter when no ACK is received from the external system within the allotted time. The amount of time is determined by the Time To Wait For A Response parameter

The options are:

• 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.

Action On Max No Response

Specifies 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 parameter

The options are:

• 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.

Action On Max Failed Read Retry

Specifies the action the adapter takes after it has reached the empty read limit set by the Max Empty Read Retry parameter. This parameter is used by inbound adapters only.

The options are:

• 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.

Action On NAK Received

Specifies the action taken by the adapter when it receives an HL7 Application NAK from the external system.

The options are:

• 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.
