4.0 THE ICSR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TRANSACTION
An acknowledgment transaction will be sent after receipt of every ICH ICSR from known
trading partners (information received from unauthorized or unknown trading partners is not
acknowledged).The acknowledgement message includes a standard ICH ICSR header, an
acknowledgment for the message, and a repeating details section that provides information
about the processing of the original message, e.g. successful parsing or problems that prevented
parsing/accepting the message.
It is important to note that the ICH ICSR Acknowledgement is structured as the response to a
batch message, and that it contains information both for the batch and for individual messages
(reports) within that batch.
4.1 Acknowledgement Message in HL7
Within HL7 messaging, this functionality is managed using the Transmission Infrastructure.
For the purposes of this IG, it will be assumed that all transactions are batched, and that all
responses will refer to the original batch wrapper, as well as to the message. The root message
types needed are MCCI_IN200101UV and MCCI_MT200101UV the stub is
MCCI_MT000200UV.
For the purposes of this IG, it will be assumed that all transactions are batched, and
that all responses will refer to the original batch wrapper, as well as to each message
in that batch.
4.2 ICH ICSR Acknowledgement Message
The Acknowledgement header contains core transactional information related to the receipt of
the batch transmission. The data elements used for the ICH ICSR Acknowledgement are
described below.
Data elements beginning with ACK.M contain technical information required for
Acknowledgement message.
Data elements beginning with ACK.A contain technical information relating to batch received.
This A section provides information to identify the batch being acknowledged as well as
providing summary data on receipt and parsing. In particular, the information provided is for the
entire batch rather than for any specific ICSR message in that batch.
Data elements beginning with ACK.B contain information relating to each ICSR message
within the received batch. This B section contains information related to each ICSR message
within a batch, including any errors detected within the message.
