FTP communications filename parameters in Jitterbit EDI

Introduction

In addition to static strings, you can use parameters in the Remote upload file name field for FTP connections defined on the Communication settings tab. When an FTP connection is established, the system replaces these parameters with values and saves the files with the expanded names. This page describes these parameters.

FTP parameters

You can use the following parameters in the Remote upload file name field:

Parameter Type Description
Sys_No Bigint
Sender_name Varchar(250)
Receiver_name Varchar(250)

Item_Count Integer
ISA_Control_Number Varchar(50) Interchange control header number
