Yes, let's go with Sandra's suggestion. ________________________________________ From: Manny Furst [efurst@imp-tech.com] Sent: Friday, November 12, 2010 2:36 PM To: Rinda, Jeffrey E.

Hi Jeff, If this is acceptable this will be the direction taken, and a CP can be developed for the TF. I’m including John Rhoads and Ken as an FYI. Thanks, Manny

Manny, We will leave the decision up to you (as I’m sure you will consult with the PIV group); and then change the tooling accordingly. Thanks Sandra!

Sorry, the confusion was with the cardinality being [0..1] for usage=”R” in the 2010-TF.

The confusion comes about because in the 2010 TF. RRG^16 ERR field has a usage of “R” but the cardinality is [1..1] which is a contradiction and should be fixed in the TF.

In a different e-mail Al Engelbert explained the following:

“For the 2010 TF, the allowable values for MSH-16 are AL, NE, and ER, so the ERR segment won’t be present if AL is used and no errors were detected. Because of this, I believe the ERR segment should be characterized as follows: [{ERR}], Error, C, [0..1]”.

We could go ahead and make the appropriate changes to the Context Files if everyone is in agreement, ERR will be usage=”C” and cardinality=[0..1]
