I want to check the GT1 segment field 6 to see if it contains (000) and if so blank out that field. Code below

Question

var gt1Segments = message.getAllNodes('GT1');

//Loops through each GT1 segment individually
for (var i = 0; i < gt1Segments.length; i++) {
   var gt1Seg = qie.parseHL7String(gt1Segments[i]);
   var gt16 = gt1Seg.getNode('GT1-6');
   if (StringUtils.contains('gt16'), '(000)') {
      message.setNode('GT1-6',  '', (i+1));
   }
}

Answer 1

The error is in the first parameter of the StingUtils.contains.

The frist parameter should be the varialble of gt16 instead of a string.

var gt1Segments = message.getAllNodes('GT1');

//Loops through each GT1 segment individually
for (var i = 0; i < gt1Segments.length; i++) {
   var gt1Seg = qie.parseHL7String(gt1Segments[i]);
   var gt16 = gt1Seg.getNode('GT1-6');
   if (StringUtils.contains(gt16, '(000)')) {
      message.setNode('GT1-6',  '', (i+1));
   }
}
