Regarding file name in the target system

[Former Member]

Hi..

I have got a file name releated problem in XI.

I have configured a flow in XI system using proxy and after mapping process creates a output file in target machine as a "Test<Date-Time Satmp>.dat".

Test is the file name and adding date-time stamp to that.

I am using file adapter.

Now my requiremnt is that instead of "<b>Test<Date-Time Satmp>.dat</b>", I need to create a file as

<b>"<Date-Time Satmp>Test.dat</b>" .

Please let me know if anyone has come across similar situation.It is urgent.

I know there is an option to create dynamic file names in file adapter but i think it isn't enought to solve my problem.

I think you can pass the variable in the message mapping which has the date format and genertae file name using vraible substitution method.

Hi jahangir laskar,

For the Receiver communication channel, (file adapter)

Enter in the fields

1. Under <b>File Access Parameters</b> section,

<i>File Name Scheme : test.dat</i>

2. Under <b>Processing Parameters</b>

<i>File Construction Mode : Add Time Stamp</i>

This should work, i just tested it out.

Try to put something like

<b>.test.dat</b> as filename, and setting the "add timestamp" option.

Should result in something like YYYYMMDDHHmmSS.test.dat

Can it fit?

Let me know if it works.

The best I obtained is to put

.test

as filename, which would generate a YYYYMMDD-HHmmSS-mmm.test

On this file probably you can play a little bit with operating system command like mv or ren.

Hope that resebmles what you're trying to achieve.

Hi..

Thanks for the reply.

But still file name(Test) is preceeding the date-time stamp.

Hi again,

As an example for file adapter - test.dat.

You would get something like this show below as file names

test20060109-164434-738.dat

test20060109-164435-490.dat

test20060109-164451-144.dat

test20060109-164451-932.dat

i hope this is what u wanted.

Srinu.
