Hello InterSystems EHR community, 

InterSystems Certification is currently developing a certification exam for InterSystems EHR integration specialists, and if you match the exam candidate description below, we would like you to beta test the exam! The exam will be available for beta testing starting November 10, 2025. 

Introducing IRIS DocDB Explorer: A Sleek UI for Managing JSON Documents in InterSystems IRIS

IRIS offers a dedicated feature for storing and retrieving JSON documents using DocDB, without requiring a predefined schema.

I am regularly contacted by customers about memory sizing when they get alerts that free memory is below a threshold, or they observe that free memory has dropped suddenly. Is there a problem? Will their application stop working because it has run out of memory for running system and application processes? Nearly always, the answer is no, there is nothing to worry about. But that simple answer is usually not enough. What's going on?

Hello!!!

Data migration often sounds like a simple "move data from A to B task" until you actually do it. In reality, it is a complex process that blends planning, validation, testing, and technical precision.

Over several projects where I handled data migration into a HIS which runs on IRIS (TrakCare), I realized that success comes from a mix of discipline and automation.

Here are a few points which I want to highlight.

1. Start with a Defined Data Format.

We are excited to announce the general availability of JediSoft IRISsync®, our new synchronization and comparison solution built on InterSystems IRIS technology.  IRISsync makes it easy to synchronize and compare IRIS instances.

IRISsync was voted runner-up in the "Most Likely to Use" category at InterSystems READY 2025 Demos and Drinks.

A huge thanks to everyone who supported us — we’re thrilled to see IRISsync resonating with the InterSystems user community!

While starting with Intersystems IRIS or Cache, developers often encounter three core concepts: Dynamic Objects, Globals & Relational Table. Each has its role in building scalable and maintainable solutions. In this article, we'll walk through practical code examples, highlight best practices, and show how these concepts tie together. 

1. Working with Dynamic Objects:

Dynamic objects (%DynamicObject and %DynamicArray) allow developers to manipulate JSON-like structures directly in Objectscript. They are especially useful for modern applications that need to parse, transform or generate JSON.

Hello everyone,

I came across the following badge on Credly:
TrakCare Fundamentals Lite Training – InterSystems Certification

Could someone please let me know how I can enroll in this course or obtain a related certification?
I’d really appreciate any guidance or links to more information.

Thank you in advance!

Hello InterSystems EHR community,

InterSystems Certification is currently developing a certification exam for InterSystems EHR Reports specialists, and if you match the exam candidate description given below, we would like you to beta test the exam! The exam will be available for beta testing starting June 30, 2025.

Working in healthcare IT as a young developer, especially on InterSystems TrakCare, you quickly realize one thing: it’s not just about HL7 messages or backend integrations. A hugepart of making TrakCare work smoothly for hospitals comes down to how it’s configured, customized, and supported on the application side.

That’s where people like me come in—techno-functional developers who understand both the tech and how it impacts actual hospital workflows.

We’re Not Just Techies (or Functional Consultants)

Our role sits right in the middle. We're the ones:

Hello CCR Users at TrakCare sites!

Hello my friends,

I have a problem with logi report, 

in my store procedure,  I create code like this?

$ListToString(%DLIST(DISTINCT (ARCIM_Desc)),'<br/>') as "ARCIM_Desc", -> this is the problem

$ListToString(%DLIST(DISTINCT (MRDIA_ICDCode_DR)),'<br/>') as "MRDIA_ICDCode_DR", -> it's works fine

as you see there's a <br/> in the display of the report

I have no idea about this, maybe someone can help me fix this problem ?

Thank You

thank you for your help

Hello my friends,

I have a bit problem with date format, I need to display like this DD-MM-YYYY

I've put the objectscript like this : set DOB=$zd(paper.PAPERDob,15)  

and the result is 

Why It cannot show the full year, I mean why 99 or 95 why not 1999 or 1995 ? 

Thank You

Hi everyone,

I'm working with JavaScript in InterSystems IRIS, specifically in CSP pages. One issue I'm running into during development is that the browser keeps loading the cached version of my JavaScript files, even after I’ve made changes or recompiled the code.
I would have to clear my cache files or browser history for it to reload and work.

All,

At READY 2025 we will have a CCR User Group Breakfast for HealthShare and TrakCare customers on Wednesday at 7:30am (presentation starts at 7:45am).  Topics will include:

• Review of Self Service Best Practice Dashboard
• Recent CCR New Features and Enhancements
• Active CCR Feature Beta Programs
• Summer and Fall Roadmap
• Q&A 

We will meet in the Jackson meeting room.  Visit the Meeting Counter to have it added to your schedule or comment below to request an invite.

Hi ISC Experts,

I'm in the process of setting up InterSystems IRIS for HealthShare with database mirroring, and I’d appreciate some guidance around how to handle an existing ODBC connection in this new setup.

Scenario:

This article presents a potential solution for semantic code search in TrakCare using IRIS Vector Search.

Here's a brief overview of results from the TrakCare Semantic code search for the query: "Validation before database object save".

• Code Embedding model 

There are numerous embedding models designed for sentences and paragraphs, but they are not ideal for code specific embeddings.

I have a Linux server that has multiple instances installed on it (according to my documentation).

What is the best command to show:

- what instance are installed?

- what instances are running?
I did run 'iris list' but it shows only one instance.

Hi ,

          I am creating a report on Trakcare with the help of Jreport. But the date parameter from trakcare is not reading on Jreport and the report is blank.

If I hardcode the date on Jreport,it is displaying on Trakcare but not taking report from Trakcare.

Parameter used on report manager on Trakcare is $g(%request.Data("DateFrom",1)).

Can anyone please tell me any change of settings on Trakcare or Jreport will help to work ? 

Thanks for the help

Jude

I am trying to upload using Upload manager functionality in Trakcare , but unable to do so without any guide or documentation.

If anyone can assist me through that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Dear Community,

I am trying to convert a base64 encoded string to a pdf. I have tried a lot of possible ways, but never succeeded. I am able to decode the base64 using $System.Encryption.Base64Decode but I am not able to convert it and store this in a path.

Can anybody help me out here?

Thanks.

Hello,

I am currently trying to edit server side code for TrakCare using Visual Studio Code with  intersystems-community.vscode-objectscript version 2.12.11-beta.1.

I can correctly check out the .mac file but when I try to either File > Save or use command 'ObjectScript: Import and Compile Current File' I get a very generic error .

I cannot find any details anywhere in the Output section.

I have reinstalled all extensions several times.

Any hints would be much appreciated.

Thanks! Daniele

InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes invalid database and journal records to be introduced when using a specific $LIST syntax. The likelihood of encountering this defect is very low but the operational impacts can be significant.

Products Affected

I am hoping for some guidance.

I am new to creating a new chart in Trakcare for use with Clinical Viewer.  My organization only has LDAP users, (we don't have the ability to use local users), that dictate what role/group a user is in, they are all the same across our Prod, Test, and Dev environments. 

Hello,

I was just trying to get to the bottom of a TLS config - we have an interface with a TLS config that has had 'Server certificate verification' set to 'On', however the cert file specified either did not exist or contained a cert that was expired.

Does anyone know what the behavior is for this typically? I would expect this to not allow traffic on the interface, however this has been working fine for a few years now with an invalid cert specified for 'Server certificate verification' and set to 'On'.
