I have reviewed the thread showing how to combine document variables into one OBS Term , but I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to combine multiple OBS terms into one.
Is this similar?
{OBSNOW("obsterm to set"), OBSNOW("obsterm1 to combine") + OBSNOW("obsterm2 to combine") + ..., date)}
Thanks for your help.
What am I missing? It does not seem to be executing.
{!OBSNOW("ROS"), OBSNOW("ROS ENDO") + OBSNOW("ROS ENT") + OBSNOW("ROS EYES") + OBSNOW("ROS HEME") + OBSNOW("ROS SKIN") + OBSNOW("ROS: CARDIAC") + OBSNOW("ROS: GI") + OBSNOW("ROS: GU") + OBSNOW("ROS: NEURO") + OBSNOW("ROS: PSYCH") + OBSNOW("ROS:GENERAL") + OBSNOW("ROS:MUSCSKEL") + OBSNOW("ROS:PULMON"), DATE)}
Do you actually have a date in the last spot? Or is it just the variable DATE with nothing in it? Looks like it should work if you fix that.
That is literally cut and pate from the Mel window.
Can I use data symbol ._TODAYSDATE ?
I don't really need the date. I am just trying to show the information that is in all of these OBSterms in one data display box.
You actually don't have to have a date at all, but you can change this to:
{!OBSNOW("ROS"), OBSNOW("ROS ENDO") + OBSNOW("ROS ENT") + OBSNOW("ROS EYES") + OBSNOW("ROS HEME") + OBSNOW("ROS SKIN") + OBSNOW("ROS: CARDIAC") + OBSNOW("ROS: GI") + OBSNOW("ROS: GU") + OBSNOW("ROS: NEURO") + OBSNOW("ROS: PSYCH") + OBSNOW("ROS:GENERAL") + OBSNOW("ROS:MUSCSKEL") + OBSNOW("ROS:PULMON"), str(._TODAYSDATE))}
I stumped!
Looking at the flowsheet, is not writing to the "ROS" OBS at all. All of the individual OBS are there but the one that I am trying to point them to is not.
Oh, take out the parenthesis after "ROS":
{!OBSNOW("ROS", OBSNOW("ROS ENDO") + OBSNOW("ROS ENT") + OBSNOW("ROS EYES") + OBSNOW("ROS HEME") + OBSNOW("ROS SKIN") + OBSNOW("ROS: CARDIAC") + OBSNOW("ROS: GI") + OBSNOW("ROS: GU") + OBSNOW("ROS: NEURO") + OBSNOW("ROS: PSYCH") + OBSNOW("ROS:GENERAL") + OBSNOW("ROS:MUSCSKEL") + OBSNOW("ROS:PULMON"), str(._TODAYSDATE))}
THAT GOT IT! thanks so much.
