Hi,

Generally XI will not process the empty files.It gives an error saying "Empty file found"

From SP 10 2004s XI can process the empty files.It can process the file as it is.

See if u are having a sender file adapter and the file is empty u can tell the if it has to 'Process the empty file' or 'Skip the empty file processing'.

Similarly if you have a message to going to your Receiver file adapter and the message is empty then you can decide still if you want to create a 'File with empty records' or skip creating the same.
