Specifying Line Breaks - HL7 Module - English - Foundation 22.1 - OnBase - Essential - Premier - Standard - external - Essential - Standard - Premier

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.
