Blank file into MDM Tuple

[Former Member]

We have a valid scenario where we push blank files to a MDM port which handles a Tuple load. MDIS righlty raises structural exception because it is looking for a matching parent customer number in MDM. Is there way we can avoid this structural exception by doing a map configuration or some validation workflow check.

I believe even validation workflow step will be triggered only after structural check is done by MDIS. so validation workflow may not work.

Let me know your inputs.

Hi Subin,

Please check the xsd to confirm if customer no is mandatory.

I think this is causing the Structural exception.

If you want the scenario to work without then place a DUMMY value in customerid from source system or PI.Map this DUMMY value to NULL in MDM and do a save update.

This way customerid will be NULL.

Thanks,

Ravi
