To set up the IPS module, you need to configure the following global properties in your OpenMRS instance. The table below shows the properties and their descriptions. |
Property | Description |
|---|---|
| The URL of the FHIR server endpoint that returns the IPS. |
Example: | |
| The concept mapping or UUID of the complex concept used to store the IPS. |
| The UUID of the identifier type used to query the server for the IPS. |
To configure the above properties, we shall create an IPS concept so that we get the UUID that will store the IPS. To create the concept, the Dictionary menu item then click on Add New Concept.
Fill in the Concept Name, Class , Datatype and click on the Save Concept button.
...
Upon successful creation of the concept, copy the UUID.
...
Click on the administrator menu.
