Batch-file Exchange

This is a summary of TIBCO Reward’s batch file processing. This summary is included here to explain the role of batch file processing with respect to other data exchange methods.

Batch file processing is ideal for high volume, asynchronous processing. Most client requirements can be achieved through batch file data loads. Complete details about each of TIBCO Reward’s batch files and how to work with them are provided later in this document, in Batch File Integration.

Most of TIBCO Reward’s batch processes require files in XML (Extensible Markup Language) format that adhere to common retail standards, such as ARTS and IXRetail. Note, however, that TIBCO Reward can usually use files in your existing proprietary format, if you make arrangements with TIBCO Reward during your onboarding process. TIBCO Reward can write transformations to convert flat files in delimited text format (for example, comma or tab separated value files) into usable XML files.

TIBCO Reward ’s batch file integration works as follows:
