Universal Function File Importer (UFFI)

WARNING: PLEASE BE AWARE THAT ALL SUPPORT FOR UFFI IN REGARDS TO CODE ARE CONSIDERED PREMIUM (PAID) SUPPORT BY BOYUM IT A/S.

You can launch UFFI as a normal universal function or you can run it on a schedule.

UFFI is designed to handle all the time consuming and error prone boiler code that needs to control files (move to archive, error folder etc.) and make sure that folders are writable etc.

With this done the developer can concentrate on handling the import logic and return a status based on how the import went. The status returned by the code will be used to determine if the file should go to the success or the error folder. You have access the normal SAP DI SDK and you can add new references using the editor.

Field	Description
C# to run	This is the C# code that UFFI will execute. By default, it comes with a predefined template on. You can click the “…” button to open the code in an external viewer.
Work folder	Where are the files stored that UFFI should work with.
Success folder	The folder to move files to if successfully imported.
Error folder	The folder to move files to upon errors
Log folder	Where the log file is created.
File filter	Here you can specify a C# file filter and is used to determine what files UFFI should try to work with. The file filter is a standard .NET filter: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143327.aspx

In the C# code you are will be able to get the full path of the file you are to work with using parameters.File you are then expected to work with the file and return a FileHandlerResultEntry where you specify if it were a success or an error. The FileHandleResultEntry have multiple overloads where you can also include messages and exceptions. If running on a schedule you will get the exception + message in the error email.
