IMPAX 6.5.1 Application Server Knowledge Base > Managing RIS connections and report sources

Connecting the Application Server to a non-queryable non-IMPAX RIS

A non-queryable RIS supports only one-way communication between the RIS and IMPAX. A non-queryable RIS sends unsolicited HL7 messages for orders and reports to the Connectivity Manager, and the Connectivity Manager parses the HL7 messages and sends them to the IMPAX database for storage. To display the information available from a non-queryable RIS in the IMPAX Client Text area, connect to a non-queryable RIS through the Connectivity Manager.

To connect the Application Server to a non-queryable non-IMPAX RIS

  1. Configure the custom RIS mappings in Connectivity Manager.

  2. Open the Business Services Configuration Tool.

  3. Switch to the Web Services tab.

  4. In the Report Info Sources area, click Add.

  5. To check the value of the requesting_service field in the Connectivity Manager database, type

    use mcf;

    select distinct requesting_service from mcf_service_request;

    Note:

    Note:

    If this query returns a single value, make note of it. If this query returns multiple values for the requesting_service field, consult a Connectivity Manager integrator, as mappings may also have to be changed. If this Connectivity Manager receives data from multiple report sources, there may be several requesting_service values that match each report source.

  6. In the Edit Report Source dialog, type the requesting_service value returned in the previous step into the Report Source Provider field.
    Note:

    Note:

    This field is case-sensitive. A maximum of 64 characters can be entered in this field.

  7. From the RIS Type list, select Connectivity Manager Non-Queryable RIS. Click OK.

  8. Under Connectivity Manager IP Filtering, in the Grant Access to IP field, type the IP address of the Connectivity Manager and click Add.

    If the Connectivity Manager uses a proxy server, type the IP address of the proxy server. To specify multiple IP addresses, separate each with a comma.
    Note:

    Note:

    If an IP address is no longer relevant, you can remove it from the IP filtering list.

  9. To close the Business Services Configuration Tool, click OK.
