[Former Member]

I have to name my output text file with the following convention :

xyz.yyyymmddhhmmss.txt where xyz is the company name and rest is the timestamp.

How can i do this ?

Hi,

ok..

How about the 'CustomerName' ?

Customer will send an EDI message, in which, in the message it contains their Sender GLN.

E.g.,

Globus - 20034567

Karstadt - 20026789

Customer -

---

> XI -

---

> File Directory (File Content Conversion)

How will I do this so that if Globus customer sends an EDI message to XI,

XI will process it and transform it into .csv file.

And the output .csv file is Globus_20080304.csv

Please advise.

Thank you very much!

you will need to use variable substitution. try to get the name in your mapping and use it via var. sub.

Hi,

If you are not particular about the format then you can use the standard date and time stamp or you can use variable substitution

Code for the same:

Hi All!

What will be the configurations in the Variable Substitution Parameters to have an output file of,

'CustomerName_YYYYMMDD' ?

Kindly advise.

Thank you!

Hi,

In your Receiver File adapter, you have an option to add the time stamp to your file.

Receiver File adapter -->File Processing Mode --> Add Timestamp.
