  • Patent number: 11404157
    Abstract: A mapping system provides a graphical editor, consisting of a visual channel editor and a node configuration panel, for graphically defining channels for processing messages. Within the visual channel editor, the user is able to create a graphical representation of a channel by interconnecting representations of a source node, mapping nodes, condition nodes, and destination nodes. When a node is selected in the visual channel editor, the node configuration panel displays user interface controls in which the user specifies parameters for the selected node. The mapping system automatically generates scripts for implementing the functionality defined by the user input. In this manner, a user need not have any knowledge of scripting to define mappings to apply to messages. The mapping system may be used to perform mappings of messages of virtually any type, but has specific applicability to mapping messages between Health Information Technology (HIT) systems.

  • Patent number: 11392554
    Abstract: The present technology pertains to synchronizing contents of a directory external to a synchronized directory by a content management system. The content management system is configured to synchronize only objects in the synchronized directory. Accordingly, the present technology creates an anchor object that represents the directory external to the synchronized directory within the synchronized directory. The anchor object includes special attributes that indicate to the synchronization client that the anchor object represents an external directory, and allows the contents of that directory to be synchronized directly to a server on the content management system without first storing the contents of the external directory on the hard drive of the client device.

  • Patent number: 11379041
    Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and tactile output generator(s) displays an item navigation user interface that includes: a representation of a portion of items arranged into groups that are represented by corresponding index values and a first portion of the items includes a first group of the items that corresponds to a first index value in the index values; and an index navigation element that includes representations of three or more of the index values. While displaying the item navigation user interface, the device further detects a drag gesture on the touch-sensitive surface including movement from a first location corresponding to the representation of the first index value to a second location corresponding to a representation of a second index value. In response, the device generates a tactile output and switches from displaying the first portion to the second portion of the items.
