Dynamic splitting of messages

[Former Member]

All,

We have a file input which has around 500K records. These records needs to be translated against a legacy system. The legacy system tells how many records it can accept in a single call during the handshake call and it varies from time to time.

Is there way to split the original message with 500K records into different messages with "x" records / message. x - is the number we got from the legacy system during the handshake.

How can we do this dynamic mapping?

Thanks.

Hi

Pls go thrugh the links below

You can do this using multi-mapping and BPM. Please have a look at this:

Use node function SPLIT BY VALUE.

This link has the descrption of the same,

Also, it is possible to create N messages without BPM. Check this blog for this,

Hi,

I dont think it is possible. If we want we can give a static number and then can read the records. But dynamically is not possible with standard.

How can we do the static number of records/message after the file has been read and we have one message with 500k records in one input message?

Thanks.

Hi,

Whats the input file format , is it Flat file ? If yes then u can use Recordset's per message, let say 20 records per message.

Best regards,
