OMN: Non-stock requisition order message

This page lists the structures and trigger events OMN defines, taken from the standard. The written commentary that theADT page carries has not been written for OMN.

Recognising OMN messages

OMN announces itself in MSH-9 like this:

MSH-9OMN^O07^OMN_O07
  1. MSH-9.1OMNmessage code: what kind of message this is
  2. MSH-9.2O07trigger event: what happened in the real world: non-stock requisition order message
  3. MSH-9.3OMN_O07message structure: which segments to expect, and in what order

How to use these specifications explains MSH-9 in full, with a worked example.
