Entries are placed (automatically) into this file when images are acquired, based on rules that are set up in a separate table. Entries in this file are processed by a "background routing processor" that takes care of the actual transmission of files to remote locations, and also takes care of purging obsolete routed files from those locations. Processed entries can be purged from this file using a menu option on the menu of the "Routing Processor".
The value of this field is a pointer to the image file. This entry in the SEND queue is intended to cause transmission of files for the image that is indicated by this pointer.
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the name of the destination to which images are to be transmitted.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a "Variable Pointer".
The pointer may reference either an entry in either File 2005.2 (Imaging Network Location) or File 2006.585 (DICOM User Application).
When pointing to File 2005.2, images will be transmitted using a host-system copy protocol; when pointing to File 2006.585, images will be transmitted using the DICOM protocol.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field indicates the status of the queue-entry. Normally, an entry goes through three stages: First, the status is "WAITING". When the queue-processor starts working on the current file, the status will
become "SENDING". When the file has been transmitted, the status will change to "SENT".
When a transmission fails, the queue processor will make a number of additional attempts to transmit the file. If all attempts remain unsuccessful, the status will be changed to "FAILED".
There is a menu option to "re-queue" entries with a status of "FAILED".

HELP-PROMPT: Enter a number that represents the priority (normal is 500).
DESCRIPTION: This field indicates the relative priority of the entry in the queue. Normally, all entries have priority 500. The software may assign a low priority (250) or a high priority (750). In the future further refinement of
HELP-PROMPT: Enter a code for the method of transmission.
DESCRIPTION:
The value of this field is a code that indicates how files are to be transmitted to the remote location. Possible methods of transmission are "MS-DOS copy" and "DICOM copy".
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the location from which this image originates.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a pointer (to the Institution file, #4). The institution that is identified by this value is the place where the image "comes from". In the context of auto-routing, the image "comes from" the
