File processing by date

[Former Member]

HI all,

I configured file to file scenario, in the sender comm channel I selected file Processing sequence as "By date" which means that Files are processed according to their time stamp in the file system, starting with the oldest file.

While testing, I placed the files in source system with same date but different timings. But the files are not processing according to oldest time stamp, inturn they are processing in some jumbled manner.

This I came to know when the files are created in target system with their timestamp that includes milliseconds also.

However, I want to process the files according to their timestamp, how can I do this?

Please help me.

Regards,

Anil.

Hi,

What is the protocol you are using ,

By Date works only with NFS.

With FTP the sequence is always ByName.

HI

Bhavesh, I am using NFS with By date.

As Lalit suggested, I put the processing mode as Archieve, and gave queue name as "Temp". In the archieve folder I could able to see the file sequence how they are getting processed and it is up to my requirement.

Now can I view the same file processing in "Temp" Queue. For this I think I need to configure the queues.

Please guide me how to configure the queues and view the files in this queue "Temp".

Thanks,

anil.

Are you using place holders in the file name??

Just to make it sure that files are getting polled in jumbled manner. Can you also use Processing Mode as Archive & select the " Add Time Stamp " checkbox.

This will actually store the file in archived folder with time they have been polled.
