(Penny Aitchison, 20060303) [This proposal] covers the NHS requirements.

Issue

The English NHS has defined a requirement to add a ManifestItem class for each Message contained in a Batch: a structure for carrying a set of values relating to a specific payload item (mostly: a message). Typically this class will be repeated for each payload instance in the batch.

Example values: Artefact Id (Message.interactionId), Patient Id.

The ManifestItem class allows the receiver of a batch to quickly determine how to process the contents of that batch.

Recommendation(s)

• Add a new (blue) RIM class "ManifestItem", with the following description: "xxx"

• Add the following attributes to the ManifestItem class:
  • payloadId II [1..*] (mandatory attribute) - Description: "The identification of the Batch payload item, e.g. Message.id"
  • payloadSequenceNumber INT [0..1] - Description: "The position/index of payload item (e.g. Message) within the Batch."
  • KeyWordText SC/CD [0..1] - Description: "KeyWordText and Value are used to convey characteristics of the item identified by payloadId (and payloadSequenceNumber)."
  • Value attribute ANY [0..*] - Description: "KeyWordText and Value are used to convey characteristics of the item identified by payloadId (and payloadSequenceNumber). If this attribute has a value the KeyWordText attribute shall also have a value."

Rationale

xx use of AttentionLine is not an option.
