Merging two files

[Former Member]

I have a file-xi-file scenario. I am having two files Header.txt and Items.txt. Now I want to merge this two files and create one file. How can I achieve this?

Hi,

you need to use a BPM which will wait for two files

to start (fork step) and then you can merge them

in a transformation step

Hi Michal & Krishna

I have never implemented BPM before. Hence I request you guys to guide me what I have to do to resolve this issue. Since I have two files i will create one datatype for each file, and one message type for each file. Also I will create two Outbound asynchrounous message interfaces. Then how can I implement BPM here? Can you please help me or point me to any weblogs for this?

Hi,

BPM :

You will have 2 receive steps in a fork.

Then , you will have a tranformation step, where you will map the 2 source messages into a single source, and finally a Send step.

Interfaces :

2 outbound Aysnch for each source file , 1 inbound Asynch for target file , 3 abstract Interfaces for each file message.

3 message types for each of the file , 1 interface mapping between the 3 asynch message interfaces.
