Hello,
We have two synchronous interfaces, both are NFS File <-> Proxy and requirement is to achieve sequence mechanism based on both interfaces file names which is in the format of 3 digit code-CCYYMMDD-HHMMSSMSS.xml.
So let’s consider interfaces names are A and G. So requirement is G files should process before A.
I have created G interface as normal sync scenario and thought of applying sequence using A interface. So created additional folder called ‘working’ in A interface root folder, created bat file to compare A interface files and G interface files,
- if (A interface file name first 3 digits are same as G interface files) and (compare time in both files. If A interface file time stamp is greater than G interface files) --> No need to move A files to working folder,
else
- if (A interface file name first 3 digits are same as G interface files) and (compare time in both files. If (A interface file time stamp is less than G interface or if there are no files in GL root folder) ---> then move A interface file to working folder from where PI picks the files
else
- if (A interface file name first 3 digits are not same as G interface files ) --> then move A interface file to working folder from where PI picks the files
So this is the requirement for sequencing and I have created bat file and created ABS job to achieve this. Now we are migrating from PI to PO and thinking to handle this with in PO and get rid of ABS job.
I thought this can be done by using BPM. Can you help me on how to achieve this using BPM? What are the steps needs to be included in BPM?
Appreciated your response on this.
