Reason

The DXH SMS (Slidemaker Stainer) System is generating an "invalid code" message (error code 75) when the LIS transmits any field in the record that is not populated (nil). The LIS will retransmit the test order to the analyzer and the DXH SMS will reject the retransmission and send a message to the LIS that the test order was already received/processed.
