Open ATS Issues

• Translations: add "derived from .. ID" attribute ?, much like acknowledgementOf. See also MCCI line-item 157.
• Message.id "sameness" discussion after transformation by a Gateway.
  • New motion of MnM: 20060113: "At the semantic (or: business process level) the contents of the Transmission wrapper, with the exception of InteractionID, are not relevant when determining if 2 interactions are the same. At the transmission-level 2 Transmissions are the same if they have the same Transmission.id."
  • This has the consequence that the sameness of Transmission.id is not linked to the wider topic of semantic-transmission sameness.
• Use of the AttentionLine class to add route-tracing information in a Transmission that's being routed/gatewayed to its destination. Are Gateways/Bridges able to add their own information to the Transmission Wrapper in the form of an additional AttentionLine?
  • 20070919 WGM The specific use case calls for an item to consider route-tracing: This is only relevant when an HL7 Application is involved. The opinion of the committee is that the use of the AttentionLine is inappropriate. An explicit means should be derived.
