How to pick file for reading in sequence based on timestamp in XI?

402 Views

Hi Experts,

I have a XI scenario where it first reads input file from the shared folder. The problem is that there will be many files at a given point of time. For example:

Here there are three files. The file name has datetime(MMDDYYYYHHMMSS) stamp at the end.

hsdinput-01012011110000.xml

hsdinput-01012011100000.xml

hsdinput-01012011111500.xml

Now I want my file adapter should read files in sequence based on the timestamp.

That is in the following order

hsdinput-01012011100000.xml

hsdinput-01012011110000.xml

hsdinput-01012011111500.xml

So is this possible in sender file adaper? What all setup or configurations I have to do in sender file communication channel to achieve this?

Thanks & Regards
