If OnBase identifies the data format as text, the end of a line of text in HL7 messages can be specified in the following ways:
-
Use repeating OBX segments. Using this method, each segment is one line of file data. An OBX segment with an empty fifth field signifies a blank line.
-
Use HL7 formatting characters. The HL7 module supports only these formatting characters.
\.br\
\.sp<number>\ — space the number of lines. (e.g., \.sp\ or \.sp2\)
\.in<number>\ — space the number of characters.
\.ti<number>\ — space the number of characters.
\.sk<number>\ — space the number of characters.
