User Parameters (in successive fields)
2003-08-22
Definition: These successive parameter fields hold the values that the Client passes to the Server.
The client data is presented as a sequence of HL7 fields. Beginning at QPD-3-User parameters, the remaining fields of the QPD segment carry user parameter data. Each QPD user parameter field corresponds to one parameter defined in the Conformance Statement, where each name, type, optionality, and repetition of each parameter has been specified. While these parameters are understood to be usually _anded_ together, the user must inspect the required Conformance Statement to properly understand each. Except in the QSC variant, the parameter names do not need to be stated in the query; they are understood to be positional based on the Conformance Statement.
