Configurable rules assumptions

The following assumptions are part of the first phase of the Configurable Rules application:
  • Configurable rules are only available for the HIPAA 5010 version extended level 2, level 3 and 4 validations that are found in mini qualifier file: configurable_rules_mini_qualifier.dat
  • Validations for 4050 version transactions cannot be configured.
  • Only extended level 2 validations that can be found in the qualifier file are configurable. Standard level 2 validations that are not found in the qualifier file are not configurable.
  • There is no ability to configure any level 6 or 7 validations.
  • There are some validations that are dependent on each other. These rules must be either both enabled or both disabled for in the mini qualifier file for Configurable Rules to execute successfully. A full listing of these rules is available on the Configurable Rules report (qualifier_report.html).
  • The only file that is available to be updated by users is the configurable_rules_mini_qualifier.dat file.

    If this file is not updated correctly, the html error report indicates the nature of the problem and processing stops. The schemas and qualifier file are not updated.

  • The application is only available for execution on Windows.
  • The application can be launched from either the Design Server or by using the Command Server. The batch files that are included with the installation can be used to execute the application using the Command Server.
  • The Configurable Rules application need only be used if you have modified the mini-qualifier file. If you do not modify that file, it is not necessary to run the Configurable Rules application.
