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.

Note:

Negative numbers or numbers greater than 9999 are not supported.
