Hi Experts,

my scenario is file to file , i need to create 3 files in target directory like filename1.txt , filename2.txt, filename3.txt,.

when the one file is palced in the source directory i need to create 3 files with same data in the target directory like the above. the mapping is same.

it is possible through batch file programming. i am using windows. OR any other solution.

Hi,

Solution 1: with mapping, source occurence = 0.1 and target occurence = 0.N.

In target message, put three times your MT_target, do the mapping with the "magic" button ("Map select fields and substructure if names are identicals) with your three entries of MT_Target.

Note: use DynamicConfiguration in mapping and ASMA in receiver CC to maange dynamically the filename, or use variable substitution (always in receiver CC).

Solution 2: without mapping

Create a flow "1 file -> PI -> 1 file", without mapping, and iIn receiver CC, use an OS command to copy twice your target filen, by this way you will have three target files.

Note: I don't know if we can have a dynamical filename with this solution, and I'm not sure that you will be able to manage different server, if files have to be created in different server files.

Hi prathima ,

I agree with Mickael.

As per the second type by using File Adapter OS Command you will just do File to File scenario.Then that the result file will be copied to appropriate location.

For File Adapter OS Command search for sdn and google.

Thanks
