QRF-5 ExtraComponents

[alberk8]

I have the QRF that needs to be transformed. How can this be done? I can get the Data below but I could not find a way to change the data on the fourth component.

ST part5 = qry_r02.QRF.GetOtherQRYSubjectFilter(0);
var msg = part5.ExtraComponents.GetComponent(3).Data

Original
QRF|MON||||168430091^5^1^0^2005&2005&2005&2005&2005

Transformed
QRF|MON||||168430091^5^1^0^2005

Hi @alberk8

Can you provide some additional data, what version of nHapi? what version of dotnet?
Could you provide complete sample code? perhaps on https://dotnetfiddle.net/

Also I'm not 100% certain on your desired outcome.

Hi,
I am using the latest version of NHapi 3.2, nhapi.model.v26 on net 7.0

I can extract the data from the code above but I want to transform the the QRF segment. I can't find a way to rebuild or change the field no 5.

@alberk8 thanks for the extra info, I'll take a look in the coming week.

@milkshakeuk I have tried a few combinations. Is there a way to add non standard segment without the Terser?.

public QRY_R02 CustomQry()
{
  var qry = new QRY_R02();
  
  #region This can compile but runtime error at return
  
  PID p1 =  qry.AddStructure("PID");
  p1.GetPatientIdentifierList(0).IDNumber.Value = "1234";
  p1.GetPatientName(0).GivenName.Value = "John";
  p1.DateTimeOfBirth.Value = "1970-01-10";
  p1.AdministrativeSex.Value = "M";
  
  #endregion

   #region This works  
   qry.AddNonstandardSegment("PID");
   Terser ter = new Terser(qry);

   ter.Set("/PID(0)-3", "1234");
   ter.Set("/PID(0)-5(0)-2", "John");
   ter.Set("/PID(0)-7", "1970-01-10");
   ter.Set("/PID(0)-8", "M");
   #endregion
   
  return qry;
}

@alberk8 to add the non-standard segment PID without the Terser you can do this:

using System;
using NHapi.Base.Parser;
using NHapi.Model.V26.Message;
using NHapi.Model.V26.Segment;

var er7 = """
	MSH|^~\&||KC1234F3|||20230810160302+0800||QRY^R02|202308101603020042|P|2.6
	QRD|20230810160302+0800|R|I|Q101||||TXE107200400230|RES
	QRF|MON||||168430091&5^5^1^0^2005&2005&2005&2005&2005
	""".ReplaceLineEndings("\r");

var pipeParser = new PipeParser();

var qryR02 = (QRY_R02)pipeParser.Parse(er7);

// Standard segments for QRY_R02 (v2.6)
// index: Name
//     0: MSH (Message Header)
//     1: SFT (Software Segment) optional repeating
//     2: UAC (User Authentication Credential Segment) optional
//     3: QRD (Original-Style Query Definition)
//     4: QRF (Original style query filter)

// Insert non-standard PID at index 4 (takes standard segment indexes into account)
// pushes QRF to index position 5
_ = qryR02.AddNonstandardSegment("PID", 4);
var pid = qryR02.GetStructure("PID") as PID;

pid.GetPatientIdentifierList(0).IDNumber.Value = "1234";
pid.GetPatientName(0).GivenName.Value = "John";
pid.DateTimeOfBirth.Value = "1970-01-10";
pid.AdministrativeSex.Value = "M";

var encoded = pipeParser.Encode(qryR02);
Console.WriteLine(encoded);

outputs the following:

MSH|^~\&||KC1234F3|||20230810160302+0800||QRY^R02|202308101603020042|P|2.6
QRD|20230810160302+0800|R|I|Q101||||TXE107200400230|RES
PID|||1234||^John||1970-01-10|M
QRF|MON||||168430091^5^1^0^2005&2005&2005&2005&2005

@alberk8 here is how you could customise QRF-5:

using System;
using NHapi.Base.Parser;
using NHapi.Base.Model;
using NHapi.Model.V26.Message;
using NHapi.Model.V26.Datatype;

var er7 = """
	MSH|^~\&||KC1234F3|||20230810160302+0800||QRY^R02|202308101603020042|P|2.6
	QRD|20230810160302+0800|R|I|Q101||||TXE107200400230|RES
	QRF|MON||||168430091&5^5^1^0^2005&2005&2005&2005&2005
	""".ReplaceLineEndings("\r");
	
var pipeParser = new PipeParser();

var qryR02 = pipeParser.Parse(er7) as QRY_R02;
ST part5 = qryR02.QRF.GetOtherQRYSubjectFilter(0);

// getting non-existent component at index 4 component will create it
var newComponent = part5.ExtraComponents.GetComponent(4);
((GenericPrimitive)newComponent.Data).Value = "test";

// getting non-existent sub component at index 0 will create it
var newSubComponent = newComponent.ExtraComponents.GetComponent(0);
((GenericPrimitive)newSubComponent.Data).Value = "subcomponent";

Console.WriteLine(PipeParser.Encode(qryR02.QRF, EncodingCharacters.FromMessage(qryR02)));

outputs the following:

QRF|MON||||168430091^5^1^0^2005&2005&2005&2005&2005^test&subcomponent

@alberk8 can you let me know if these solve your issues?

[alberk8]

@milkshakeuk , Thank you. It worked like a charm. I think this needs to go into an example. Thank you again.

[milkshakeuk]

@alberk8 I have converted this to a discussion rather than an issue, could you mark the relevant suggestions as answers please :)
