Upload your Files

This chapter explains how to process an inbound file, commonly referred as a transmission in Data Exchange Cloud Service user guides.

Pre-Requisites

Before you can process files, ensure the following configurations are completed in Designer Workbench:

• Manage Lines of Business

• Manage Trading Partners

• Set up a Trading Partner Agreement

Where to Upload Files in Operations Workbench

You can upload files in the Operations Workbench or place them in the appropriate virtual folders in the Object Storage bucket.

To upload files in Operations Workbench:

1. Click File Upload in the top right-hand corner of the Inbound Trading Partner Agreement section.

   Only Inbound Agreements in the Enabled status are available in the File Upload drop-down.

2. You can upload or drag-and-drop one or more files under the selected trading partner agreement.

Data Exchange Cloud Service performs a duplicate check to ensure no duplicate files are processed. It also performs an anti-virus check on the files before further processing.

A dedicated virtual folder is created in OCI Object storage bucket under DECS tenancy when a new trading partner agreement is created in the Designer Workbench. When you upload files in Operations Workbench, they are stored in the respective virtual folder of the selected trading partner agreement. You can also post files directly to virtual folders in Object Storage using DECS APIs for automated file processing.

Ensure that the respective trading partners are in Enabled status when you enable inbound agreement(s) in Designer Workbench.
