Subfolder Routing<br />

ADVANCED CHANNEL OPTIONS<br />

Do not delete source files after transfer: This check-box is<br />

related to the Run only on command option. It is<br />

especially useful for web publishing when you wish to<br />

transfer all files from your local server to the internet<br />

server, thus ensuring that all the files needed are<br />

transmitted. Note that when using this function you<br />

must manually click the checkered flag button in the<br />

main window to transfer the files.<br />

Wait until file stops growing: Certain file transfer programs,<br />

such as Easy Transfer, send an End of File statement<br />

after each block of data that is transferred. If such a<br />

program is used to transfer the files into the source<br />

folder of the channel, this function makes <strong>Distribution</strong><br />

<strong>Manager</strong> check each file in the source folder at the set<br />

interval, and transfers the file to the destination folder<br />

once the files seize to increase in size. This way, one can<br />

be assured that the entire file is transferred.<br />

Stop channel after failure: If an ftp transfer should fail for<br />

any reason, this function is used to configure how many<br />

times the program should retry the operation before the<br />

channel is automatically stopped.<br />

Use Subfolder Routing<br />

Subfolder routing allows you to set up routing of files to specified folders<br />

according to a prefix in the file name, the file extension, or, if you work with<br />

Macintosh files, the file types.<br />

Routing Options<br />

Route by File Name Prefix: When selected, files will be sorted in subfolders<br />

within the destination folder according to the prefix in the file name. In the<br />

separator field, enter a character to separate the prefix from the filename. Use<br />

a prefix character that that doesn't normally occur in the filenames themselves,<br />

so as to prevent the program from misinterpreting the prefix.<br />

Remove Prefix: If enabled, the prefix and separator will be removed from the<br />

filename after the file has been transmitted to the destination folder.<br />

Route by File Name Extension and Type: Sorts files according to the filename<br />

extension (typically PC files) or file type (Macintosh files only).<br />
