LINKTools® IDK Tutorial: LINKTools® Message Mapper

LINKTools® Message Mapper

The LINK Mapper application enables you to create and modify your interface templates. These Mapper templates insert or extract ADT/Order information form the HL7 message that had been configured in the template and converts them to appropriate format that can be inserted to your system database. For example the Inbound Mapper is configured to convert HL7 to User delimiters and converts transcribed text report to HL7 message on the Outbound. LINKTools® IDK ships with several Mapper interface templates that are pre-configured for different HIS or clinical systems, additional HL7 segments or Fields can be added or modified using the LINK Mapper application
