FTPS Forwarding Agent MultiForwardingUDR Input

When the agent is set to use MultiForwardingUDR input, it accepts input of the UDR type MultiForwardingUDR declared in the package FNT. The declaration follows:

internal MultiForwardingUDR {
    // Entire file content
    byte[] content;
    // Target filename and directory
    FNTUDR fntSpecification;
};

The MultiForwardingUDR content is stored at the path set in the fntSpecification field. Use the APL functions fntAddString and fntAddDirDelimiter to set the value of this field. For more information, see FNTUDR Functions in APL Reference Guide.

When the files are received they are written to temp files in the DR_TMP_DIR directory in the root output folder. The files are moved to their final destination when an end batch message is received. A runtime error occurs if any of the fields have a null value or if the path is invalid on the target file system.

A UDR of the type MultiForwardingUDR which has a target filename that is not identical to its precedent is saved in a new output file.

Non-existing directories are created if the Create Non-Existing Directories checkbox in the Filename Template tab is selected.

If not selected, a runtime error occurs if a previously unknown directory exists in the FNTUDR of an incoming MultiForwardingUDR. Every configuration option referring to bytearray input is ignored when MultiForwardingUDRs are expected.

For more information about Filename Template, see Workflow Template.
