Tips And Considerations

  • You can't delete a predefined healthcare attribute group or attribute.
  • You can't modify a predefined value set. To add or remove values from a value set, create a new value set and associate it to the corresponding attribute.
  • To add new attributes to a healthcare attribute group, you can only assign table columns from 21 to 40 for number, 21 to 40 for character, 6 to 10 for date and 6 to 10 for date and time data types.
  • You can't update the Name property of the segment for a predefined healthcare attribute.
  • You can update the Required checkbox in an attribute, only if it's not a part of the Unique Key property.
  • If you update the Unique Key property in an attribute to Yes, you can't set it back to No.
