XMLFILECONSUMER cron task
The XMLFILECONSUMER cron task is the mechanism that you use to load XML files without any application user intervention.
The XMLFILECONSUMER cron task has the following predefined parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| EXTERNALSYSTEM | A required parameter value that identifies the external system value that the cron task data load process uses. |
| SOURCEDIRECTORY | A required parameter value that defines the directory where source files are loaded. This directory must exist on the application server. |
| ENTERPRISESERVICE | A required parameter value that identifies the enterprise service name that the cron task uses to process all files that are located in the source directory. |
| FILENAME | An optional parameter value that determines whether the cron task data load process selects source files based on its file name. |
| USEREXITCLASS | An optional custom processing class value that defines additional cron task capability (for example, file load order). |
| TARGETENABLED | Ensure that the value is at the default of 0 (false). The functionality of this flag is superseded by the donotrun functionality. Use the donotrun parameter in the cron task framework to control which servers the cron task runs on. |
| ISFILEEXTRACT | When set to 1 (true), this parameter indicates that file-based error management is used for inbound message processing. |
All XML files that are available in the source directory are associated with a specific external system – enterprise service when you add a value to the EXTERNALSYSTEM, SOURCEDIRECTORY, and the ENTERPRISESERVICE parameters. These XML files also are loaded into the integration framework.
The files that match the cron task file name property are associated with a specific external system – enterprise service and are loaded into the system when you add a value to the EXTERNALSYSTEM, SOURCEDIRECTORY, ENTERPRISESERVICE, and FILENAME parameters
