Hi Satish -

The standard file/FTP adapter processes files in alphabetical order or by modification date only.

Sorry - For NFS we have the option to select but for FTP it's always processed in ascending alphabetical order.

Note 821267 - FAQ: XI 3.0 / PI 7.0 / PI 7.1 / PI 7.3 File Adapter

• Q: How does a File Adapter sender channel handle the quality of service EOIO? Are files that match the File Name Scheme in the sender's channel configuration processed in arbitrary order?
• A: The File Adapter allows you to configure the Processing Sequence of files for the Transport Protocol "File System (NFS)", which also determines the order for EOIO processing. Files can either be processed in ascending alphabetical order (Processing Sequence "By Name") or by their last modification time stamp (Processing Sequence "By Date"), where the oldest file is processed first. For the Transport Protocol "File Transfer Protocol (FTP)" files are always processed in ascending alphabetical order.
