Step 10: Create an Orchestration

  • Article

In this step, you use Orchestration Designer to create an orchestration to represent the business process for retrieving additional patient details to fully populate an ADT_A04 message. Using Orchestration Designer, you select the orchestration shapes required to represent actions for this business process. In later exercises, you provide additional information to configure the shapes so that they can function properly.

Note

The orchestration created in the following steps only works in the context of this tutorial. In order for the orchestration to work correctly, it needs the assembly references, maps, and the other artifacts that you create while using this tutorial.

To create an orchestration

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click BTAHL7 Project, point to Add, and then click New Item.

  2. In the Add New Item dialog box, in the Categories pane, click Orchestration Files.

  3. In the Templates pane, click BizTalk Orchestration.

  4. In the Name field, type Doorbell Orchestration.odx (note that there is a space between the word Doorbell and Orchestration) as the orchestration name, and then click Add to create a new orchestration file.

  5. In the View menu, click Toolbox.

  6. In the Toolbox pane, drag the Receive shape to the Design view surface and drop it on the area labeled Drop a shape from the toolbox here.

  7. In the Properties window (on the bottom right of your screen), click the Name property and type DoorbellReceive as the name of the Receive shape, and then press Enter.

  8. In the Properties window, change the Activate property to True.

  9. Drag the Transform shape from the Toolbox and drop it directly below the DoorbellReceive shape.

  10. In the Properties window (on the bottom right of your screen), click the Name property to change the name of the Transform shape to DoorbellTransform, and then press Enter.

  11. In the Toolbox pane, drag the Message Assignment shape to the Design view surface and drop it on the area directly below the ConstructMessage_1 shape.

  12. In the orchestration Design view surface, click the MessageAssignment_1 shape, and in the Properties pane, click Name and type the new name DoorbellFinalTransform, and then press Enter.

  13. Drag the Send shape from the Toolbox and drop it on the connecting line directly below the DoorbellFinalTransform shape.
