Process received files based on SFID

A partner sends files of different types with different sender identifiers (SFIDs), for example EDI data with SFID1 and CAD data with SFID2. The files are to be stored in different inbound directories for easier further processing. For this purpose, two partner accounts can be created, which only differ in the SFID and the inbound and outbound directories. It is important that both partner accounts are assigned to the same group.

 

If files are then received via one of the partner accounts, !MC5 checks for each file whether its SFID matches the SFID of another partner account of the SSID group. If this is the case, the received file is stored in the corresponding input directory. If no matching partner account is found, the file is stored in the inbound directory of the partner account that was used to establish the connection.

 

Example

Partner account Partner A uses the SFID PA and the inbound directory C:\Odette\In\Parnter_A, partner account Partner B uses the SFID PB and the inbound directory C:\Odette\In\Partner_B.

A connection is established through partner account Partner A and the following files are received with the SFIDs in parentheses as the sender identifier:

oD1 (PA)

oD2 (PA)

oD3 (PB)

oD4 (PA)

oD5 (PB)

oD6( PB)

If both partner accounts are in the same SSID group, then the files will be stored as follows, otherwise all files would be stored in partner A's inbox directory.

oC:\Odette\Partner_A\D1

oC:\Odette\In\Partner_A\D2

oC:\Odette\In\Partner_A\D4

oC:\Odette\In\Partner_A\D3

oC:\Odette\In\Partner_A\D5

oC:\Odette\In\Partner_A\D6
