No standard way via the adapter but then you could write a script or create a batch file (and schedule it) to acheive the functionality.

Hi,

YOu can just create anyother file adapter and place the archive folder path.

But this is just a way to place the file in the folder. I guess it will not provide you with the actual functionality.

Ansar,

For adapter modules, take a look at this,

Hi,

You can go for "Run OS command after Message Processing"

Command for NFS file receiver adapter

copy
path\filename.xml
path\ArchiveFolder

A simple thought;

make a batch file (copy the following code in notepad and save it with ext. as .bat) and put it into your output folder where Xi writes the files.

echo ON

copy . <target directory ex. c:\test>

cd\

cd <targ. directory>

del *.bat

and schedule it say via a windows scheduler

Hi,

I think the problem is with the path. Try creating a batch file and you execute the batch file and check if it is working fine. Then try calling the batch file from the communicaion channel. Calling batch file should be like this you need to give the clear path
path\archive.bat.

One more thing login into XI box and try that same command from XI. See if it is working.

make a batch file as follows;

<i>echo ON

copy . <target folder>

cd\

cd <target folder>

del *.bat

exit</i> (edit the logic as u need)

and in the CC call the batch file by the OS command

START <batchfile name>.

Make sure you have the batch file placed in the output folder.

I have the same issue. Is this issue being solved ?

If at all , can you please let me know the solution .

[bhavesh_kantilal]

Hi,

You have options in the file creation mode like,

1. Add Timestamp

2. Add Counter , etc .

You can use any of these options? Is this what you are looking at?

Hi,

there is not way to do it in standard

you can try creating your own adapter module for that

and use it in the file adapter

or set up a rule that will send two files

(one for destination system and one for archive system)

if this is suitable for your (with all the consequences)
