step1:

in Sender and receiver Communication channels, You have to select Ftp from transport call

and you have to provide Ftp parameters like Server , port of ftp from FTP Connection parametsr,

HI Deepthi,

While creating the Communication channels you need to provide the source/ Target Directories and the file naming conventions.

Using that file name, place the file in the respective folder that has the message satisfying the structure defined in the ESR.

hi,

step1:

you have to put the source file in source directory for sender side what ever u defined in sender communication channel.

you have to create Target directory(not mandatary) what ever u defined in sender communication channel.

step2:

run ion FTp server thats all

Hi,

while creating a communication channel for file sender or receiver you have to specify the source and target file names.

sender communication channel:

Source file name: Give your file name with extension(XML or TXT)

Source Directory : GIve Directory name (where you have place the file)

same as target also file name and directory once completed everthing. you have to run FTP server.
