Hi Grahame, The concern about FEEDER_AUDIT related to its use in outgoing service requests e.g. within referrals / lab requests etc. This is technically possible but against the intentions within the specifications as Thomas suggested in his eralier reply. Personally I would be happy to see the specifications change to allow FEEDER_AUDIT used in this way.
