35.51 HL7 v2.x to FHIR Mapper - Forced Namespace Mode 35.53 HL7 v2.x Mapper - Medications

35.52HL7 v2.x Mapper - General

The HL7 v2.x Mapper - General configuration category includes the following configurable options:

Create MessageHeader for Each Message
Creation Mode - Practitioner
Patient Primary Identifier Search Parameter
Inferred TimeZone When Not Present
Mapper Bean Types
MessageHeader Hardcoded Destination Name
Process AL1 Segments

35.52.1Property: Create MessageHeader for Each Message

Property Name	Create MessageHeader for Each Message
Property Key
Property Type	BOOLEAN
Description	If enabled, a MessageHeader resource will be created and stored in the repository for every HL7 v2.x message that is processed. See Creating MessageHeader for more information.
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	`false`
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.create_message_header = false`

35.52.2Property: Creation Mode - Practitioner

Property Name	Creation Mode - Practitioner
Property Key
Property Type	ENUM
Values	`CONDITIONAL_CREATE` `CONDITIONAL_UPDATE`
Description	This setting controls the create/update mode for Practitioner resources that are generated when converting from HL7 v2.x. This setting can be used to specify that resources should always be updated using values from the v2.x message (conditional update) or should only be created if they do not already exist (conditional create).
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	`CONDITIONAL_UPDATE`
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.creation_mode.practitioner = CONDITIONAL_UPDATE`

35.52.3Property: Patient Primary Identifier Search Parameter

Property Name	Patient Primary Identifier Search Parameter
Property Key
Property Type	STRING
Description	If specified, Patient resources will be created using this search parameter to match the primary identifier. Typically the default value of `identifier` is good for this setting.
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	`identifier`
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.identifiers.patient.primary_identifier_search_param_name = identifier`

35.52.4Property: Inferred TimeZone When Not Present

Property Name	Inferred TimeZone When Not Present
Property Key
Property Type	STRING
Description	If enabled, the given timezone offset will be used when an HL7 v2.x timestamp (TS) datatype is received that does not contain a timezone offset. This is useful because many HL7 v2.x systems do not transmit an offset, assuming instead that all times they transmit are in their local timezone. Set this value to explicitly state which timezone to infer. Values for this property should be a valid Java TimeZone identifier (e.g. `America/Chicago` or `Australia/Canberra`).
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	(no default)
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.infer_timezone_when_not_present =`

35.52.5Property: Mapper Bean Types

Property Name	Mapper Bean Types
Property Key
Property Type	STRING
Description	A comma-separated list of bean classes that will be used to map messages as they are processed by this endpoint. Classes listed here must implement the interface `ca.cdr.api.pub.hl7v2.IHl7V2MessageMapper`.
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	(no default)
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.mapper_bean_types =`

35.52.6Property: MessageHeader Hardcoded Destination Name

Property Name	MessageHeader Hardcoded Destination Name
Property Key
Property Type	STRING
Description	If set, supplies a hardcoded value to use for the `MessageHeader.destination.name` field in generated MessageHeader resources. This can be useful if you wish to place an identifier to uniquely track all messages received from a specific endpoint.
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	(no default)
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.messageheader.hardcoded_destination_name =`

35.52.7Property: Process AL1 Segments

Property Name	Process AL1 Segments
Property Key
Property Type	BOOLEAN
Description	If this is enabled, AL1 segments will be processed on incoming messages. Note that this can have a significant impact on performance and storage requirements.
Applies to Modules	HL7 v2.x Listening Endpoint
Default Value	`false`
Example Property	`module.[MODULE_ID].config.process_al1_segments = false`
