Import Manager Batch

[Former Member]

Hi Folks,

The files in the ready folder are supposed to move automatically to archive folder when using import server. Logically the same thing is supposed to happen when you use import manager batch... right ? .. its not happening for us.. it just remains there in the ready folder after the import... any suggestions ... ?

Hi ya

If you are using Import Manager Batch then you usually have the Sourse file "hard coded" in the ini and you run Import Manager Batch.exe for this ini which does the execute.

The file will remain (at the path you specified you in the ini).

If you want then run more than one iteration/Import you need to create a script that will execute the Import Manager each time

Hope this helps

Hi C,

We do have a ini file which is run by a bat script. The issue is - the file name in the ready directory have date/time stamps in the file name. So every file has a diff name. Is there a way to pick up such files.

Hi ya

You have one file name hard coded in the batch import ini right? You can use your .bat file to read and rename the file in the ready folder, import, then move the file to a different folder or rename again

Hi ,

I had posted this before as well .

we had similar issue , and we created rename bat file which renames each incoming file the way its needed like products 1 , products 2 .....

Then for tracking purpose , we created folders by date and moved the files according to successful or failure .

Hope this helps ,
