Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

jwbadger3 — Tue, 22 Jul 2025 14:29:37 GMT

Howdy folks,

Has any other organization found the definitive way to launch any E2N activity within hyperspace from a QV app? Epic has confirmed this is possible but they have not released how you pass E2N desired/required fields beyond just the Patient ID.

We created a document with the basic information (see attached) but we wanted to extend to encounter specific activities.

Thanks Jeff!

Here's what I typically reference when working on the QlikView Epic Integrations:

1. In a QlikView straight table object, create a new expression that will be used to launch an Epic activity.
2. Label the expression appropriately and enter definition code such as (this includes code to pad the patient IDs which may be necessary):

='Launch Chart Review'&'<URL>EpicAct:UCW_CHART_REVIEW,InfoName:PATIENTID,InfoValue:'& REPEAT(' ', (10 - LEN(PAT_ID))) & PAT_ID

='Launch Snapshot'&'<URL>EpicAct:UCW_SNAPSHOT,InfoName:PATIENTID,InfoValue:'& REPEAT(' ', (10 - LEN(PAT_ID))) & PAT_ID

3. Set the Display Options for Representation to Link.

4. Host the application in Hyperspace using the QlikView Radar integrations. This could be a Link Component that links out to the QlikView Access Point or the specific application in question. Or it could be a Native HTML component that displays a particular QlikView application or single object from an application.

Examples of testing links for Radar to the QlikView applications:

Full QlikView Application: OpenDoc mode including optional selections:

http://eu-b.demo.qlik.com/QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=qvdocs/Prescription%20Tracker.qvw&host=Demo11&anonymous=true&select=LB104,Albany

Single object: SingleObject mode including optional selections:

http://eu-b.demo.qlik.com/QvAJAXZfc/singleobject.htm?document=qvdocs/Prescription%20Tracker.qvw&host=Demo11&anonymous=true&object=CH256&select=LB104,Albany

The singleobject mode is nice because it automatically responds to the size of the viewport. If you choose the opendoc mode, you'd need to make the dimensions similar so that things scale and are still readable without scroll bars.

The host and anonymous parameters are also optional.

Hi Jeff,

Just to add on to your slides, for encounter specific things (at least the encounter summary and visit navigator) you can use two infonames

First:

INFONAME: PATIENTID

INFOVALUE: Padded EPT .1 (10 Characters)

Second

INFONAME: PATIENTDAT

INFOVALUE: DAT for the contact you are interested in

To get the DAT, you can take the constant 121531 and subtract the DTE for the encounter (pat_enc_date_real)

Simple SQL example:

select

enc.pat_enc_csn_id

,enc.pat_enc_date_real as dte

,121531-enc.pat_enc_date_real as dat

from pat_enc enc

where pat_enc_csn_id = :CSN

;

Can you speak to the security permissions that would need to be in place for the user to be able to use these links while in hyperspace. When we built a test app to use in our POC environment our team kept getting an Error: "The system has encountered a problem. You are not authorized to run this option." Are there a specific set of permissions that have to be granted to users in Epic to allow the Qlik integration?

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

joe_warbington — Tue, 11 Aug 2015 14:21:13 GMT

When you are in Hyperspace and click an activity link within a Qlik app, you'll need the appropriate Epic security to view that activity. For instance, if you click on a link that launches Chart Review for a patient, you'd need access to view patient charts in Epic.

Qlik won't give access to areas of Epic that users are not permitted to use.

I was using an old sample of code and it did not have the function to Pad the PAT_ID to 10 characters. That one fix was all we needed.

Donnie, that is good information.

Can you post an example of how the expression would look for that encounter action? Also, is it possible to open up an encounter using CSN instead of the DAT? That would be easier for my current application.

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

dclark0699 — Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:46:01 GMT

Here is an example of the expression to get to the encounter summary report (at least in our Epic - 2014, not model system)

'EpicAct:MR_ENC_SUMMARY,INFONAME:PATIENTID,INFOVALUE:' & Repeat(' ',10-Len(PAT_ID)) & PAT_ID & ',INFONAME:PATIENTDAT,INFOVALUE:' & VISIT_DAT

I have not yet figured our a way to pass the CSN instead. I tried a long time ago with our CMIO, but once we found the DAT worked we haven't spent any more time on trying with the CSN since in our system I have ready access to both.

Donnie, Thanks for the information! I can't wait to implement this functionality.

Not sure if it's because we're on 11.20 SR12 but this wouldn't work in an expression without the parentheses around the link text:

('Launch Chart Review')&'<URL>EpicAct:UCW_CHART_REVIEW,InfoName:PATIENTID,InfoValue:'& REPEAT(' ', (10 - LEN(PAT_ID))) & PAT_ID

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

dclark0699 — Wed, 04 Nov 2015 12:50:32 GMT

I'm running 11.2 SR12 and it works for me both with and without the parentheses. Do you get an error? Does you Link still look correct in a straight table?

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

qvd1rkqv — Thu, 05 Nov 2015 15:23:14 GMT

No error just didn't call the activity. Sorry the BA working on this was not using a straight table.

Hi Mark - Have you worked this out?

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

qvd1rkqv — Fri, 18 Dec 2015 20:04:07 GMT

I think we're in good shape on this. Thanks Joe.

We had Epic onsite with us in December and their response was essentially 'We don't know.'

Part of the problem is that NOT every E2N is available for use with this functionality - it has to be enabled somehow to be able to be referenced. The Epic developer response was as helpful as ever... "If you have a specific action you want to take, contact your Epic TS."

Great...

When launching an encounter summary, this happens in a popup window, is it possible to set the size and position of the popup window using the link? I hope this question makes sense. Basically we have a QVW app that launches the encounter summary and the window is appearing in the middle of the screen. We would like to size this popup window and place on the right side of the screen so it doesn't cover the center of the QVW application.

Thanks!

Not sure I can be any help but can you post a screenshot showing the behavior?

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

jwbadger3 — Mon, 14 Mar 2016 12:29:40 GMT

Agree with Mark, a screenshot may help with understanding what you're troubleshooting. Our setup launches the activity as a new workspace tab in Hyperspace - not as a pop-up.

Re: Qlik Epic Radar Integrations and Activity Links

phcaptjim — Thu, 17 Mar 2016 11:43:19 GMT

Below is an example of the popup encounter summary we get when using the following link inside the QVW application (I have covered up the PHI):

= 'Open Encounter'&'<URL>EpicAct:MR_ENC_SUMMARY,INFONAME:PATIENTID,INFOVALUE:' & Repeat(' ',10-Len(PAT_ID)) & PAT_ID & ',INFONAME:PATIENTDAT,INFOVALUE:' & VISIT_DAT

qvd1rkqv — Thu, 17 Mar 2016 19:04:15 GMT

Jim,

This is not any help but I was able to reproduce this behavior over here. I've not called this activity before and was surprised to see this popup window and asked around here if anyone knew of an alternative activity that you could call. You're probably going to have to work with Epic to see what they can do to help solve this problem. Please share if you get anywhere on it.
