Select Data Types

The table at the top of the dialog shows all currently configured connectors for your channel. Since response transformers have their own inbound / outbound data types, for destination connectors you can expand the node in the tree and view the Response row underneath a particular destination. For a new channel, all data types are set to HL7 v2.x by default. This can be changed in two ways: The Connector table has Inbound and Outbound columns with drop-down menus. Select the drop-down arrow inside of the cell to make a selection: Use the drop-down menu in the Inbound Properties or Outbound Properties sections: Note: Since a message flows from the source connector directly to each destination connector, every destination inbound data type is always equal to the source outbound data type. Therefore, you may notice that the inbound data type is not editable for destination rows. In order to change the destination inbound data type, change the source outbound data type.

Change Data Type Properties

After selecting a connector / response row in the table above, the Inbound Properties and Outbound Properties sections below will show all currently configured properties for the respective data types. Select on the rows in the properties table to view descriptions of categories or specific properties: Depending on the connector row chosen above, the data type itself, and whether the data type is being used as inbound or outbound, the categories of properties shown in the table vary. For additional information on data type properties and options for specific data types, see Data Types. Any properties you have changed or that are not equal to the default value are shown in bold. To revert all changes back to the defaults for the selected data type, select the Restore Defaults button above the Properties tables: Parent topic: Set Data Types Window

Set Data Types Window

Use the Set Data Types window for all data types configured across your entire channel. This is the main management window for all data types configured across your entire channel. You can see at a glance and easily configure the data formats you are expecting to receive, the formats you are converting the data into for each outbound destination, and the response formats you are receiving from external systems. You can also configure various properties for each data type, which determine how your data can be used inside of filters and transformers and elsewhere. Image of the Set Data Types window.

Edit Data Types

You can edit the properties for the destination transformer's inbound data type. A filter only has access to the inbound data type, while a transformer has access to both inbound and outbound data types. Additionally, when editing the destination transformer the inbound data type may not be changed, since it must remain the same as the source connector's outbound data type. However, you can still edit the properties for the destination transformer's inbound data type. An image of the Message Templates tab editing the inbound data type. When selecting the Properties button, a dialog opens allowing you to edit the various inbound or outbound properties for the data type. This is a subset of the view shown in the Set Data Types Window. For additional information, see About Data Types and Data Types. Parent topic: Message Templates Tab

Inbound Properties

Serialization Properties: Determines how to convert data from the raw inbound format to the internal representation (e.g. XML). If a data type doesn't have serialization properties present, it either doesn't need any (DICOM, JSON), or it doesn't actually do any serialization (Raw). Batch Properties: Determines how to split an incoming message into multiple messages. Only supported when Process Batch is enabled in the Source Settings. This will only be displayed for source connectors. Not all data types support batch processing (DICOM). Response Generation Properties: When an auto-generation option is chosen for the response on the Source Settings, these properties determine how to generate an automatic response. This will only be displayed for source connectors. Not all data types support automatic response generation. Response Validation Properties: Determines how to validate responses received by a destination after dispatching a message. Only supported when Validate Response is enab
