Month	If the Frequency Type is selected as Quarterly, Half Yearly, and Yearly, select the month for the interface file execution from the drop-down list: January February March April May June July August September October November December
Date	If the Frequency Type is selected as Monthly, Quarterly, Half Yearly, and Yearly, select the date of the month between 1 to 31 for the interface file execution from the drop-down list.
Pre Message AUDF	Click Search and specify the AUDF that needs to be processed before triggering the interface from the list of values. Use this to add additional functionality required at the message level.
Post Message AUDF	Click Search and specify the AUDF that needs to be processed after triggering the interface from the list of values. Use this to add additional functionality required at the message level.
Function ID	Click Search and specify the function ID for which the incoming data need to be sent.
Processed File Mask	Specify the file mask for renaming the incoming file after uploading the data.
Default Action	Select the default action which needs to be processed to process the uploaded data in the upload table from the drop-down list: New Modify Close Reopen
On Override	Select the action to be taken if an override occurs from the drop-down list: Reject Continue Skip
Suppress Start Reference	Check this box to indicate that the start reference number should be suppressed. If the check box is selected and the start reference element is defined in the component definition, the system raises an error message while saving the interface. The system validates the start reference check for Header, Body, and Footer. For a given interface, mask and suppress start references apply to all the file names configured for that interface.
Incoming File Mask	Select the file mask for selecting the incoming files from the file directories mentioned in the drop-down list. The system supports four types of file masking. YYYYMMDDHHMISS - Date and Time mask (year, month, date, hours, minutes, and second) NNN - Sequence number-based mask, 3-digit numeric numbers Start With File Name - Upload all files which are starting within the coming file name Exact File Name - File Names that exactly match the file name in the interface definition The system searches all the files which are matching the mask criteria and process the files one by one _ as the split separator for the file name and the mask criteria. Note: The system will continue or break the uploading of records based on the error handling defined in the On Override field. If it is Continue, then the system ignores the current record and continues with the next record. If it is a Reject, then the system stops the execution of the file and starts executing the next available incoming file. By default, the system appends the Incoming File Mask type to the file name while searching the physical file name. If an interface supports multiple types of incoming files, then the same file mask is applicable for all types of incoming files.
Outgoing Interface	Specify the corresponding outgoing interface file for the above incoming file.
Log Output	Select the type of details to be updated in the log file from the adjoining drop-down list: Error Success Both While processing the interface file, the system verifies the log output value and the below details: If the value of Log Output is Error, then the system creates an error file (<INTERFACE_NAME>_ FILENAME>_ERR_<ProcessRefNo>.dat) in the Log_Failure folder and updates the primary key elements and the corresponding error details (error code and message). If the value of Log Output is Success, then the system creates a data file (<INTERFACE_NAME>_ FILENAME>_SUC_<ProcessRefNo>.dat) in the Log_Success folder and updates the primary key elements. If the value of Log Output is Both, then the system creates both the error file and data file in the log folder. During the interface configuration, log_failure and log_success folders are created in the interface configured folder.
Last Run Date	The system displays the last run date.
Next Run Date	The system displays the day on which the interface can be triggered.
