Count the files and send it to PI

[Former Member]

Hi,

A job runs weekly and creates 6 files on one of the prod folders in a windows system. The files are FTP to PI. Before picking the files we need to ensure that the count for the files on that folder is 6. If it is 6 or greater then we can pick all those 6 files and send it across to PI (also with archiving it on another folder structure in the legacy system) where PI will send it to another system. If the count is less than 6, then we do not need to do any thing. If count 6 is reached and the files are picked, reset the counter to 0.

The source system is Windows. On a Saturday, if we run a job at say 1:00 pm then within an hour or two, if 6 files are not present then an alert/mail should be sent to the Business informing that 6 files are not present in the folder.

Please suggest how to approach on this.

Advance Thanks,

SAP has provided a servlet for starting and stopping a communication channel externally. This is well documented in SAP help for PI. Now, you can write an ABAP program to read your file directory and if there are 6 files or more, start the communication channel automatically by calling the servlet. Then after few more minutes, you can check if all the files have been processed and if yes, stop the channel.

Try through BPM with counter 6 and use exception handeller as exit if at particular point of time count is less then.

If file is more then 6 in a folder the counter will take only first 6 files there and process.

Hi Ram,

If count is less than 6, we need to send an E-mai*l instead of raising exception. And please provide the steps for the same.

Reward point*s would be available.
