The Engage Hill-Rom Subscriber Adapter 2.0 (2.0.8) solution provides the following new features:

• This adapter has been re-built for compatibility with Platform 5.5.

• This adapter has been updated to improve handling of messages during failover. (ADP-4340)

• The user login is used as the user identity in the system. (ADP-3931)

• The adapter provides identity data when creating/updating assignments so the assignments are linked to the user once the real user account is created. (ADP-2848)

• A configuration value (Assignment Adapter Identifier) has been added to identify the adapter to the Assignment Manager. (ADP-3924)

  When not configured, the interface id number is used to ensure backwards compatability.

• An Expect Pending Assignments flag has been added to the adapter. (ADP- 3876)

  When the flag is set, the adapter will not set the assignment state, and the Assignment Manager is assumed to manage assignment states.

• A Subscriber Timeout configuration field has been added to the adapter to control the amount of time between expected assignment requests. (ADP-2555)

• Users can know when improperly secured data is received from a Hill-Rom Clinical Staff assignment service. (ADP-56)

  A Timeout field in the Security Token Settings provides users the ability to configure the grace period for the expiration time of the security token used to validate requests to the adapter from a clinical staff assignment service.

The following issues are fixed in Engage Hill-Rom Subscriber Adapter 2.0 (2.0.8):

• The adapter no longer generates multiple errors when subscribing and unsubscribing after time out elapses. (ADP-937)
