CreateOutputFile Activity

CreateOutputFile activity generates an output file containing record data in different formats for a list of processed records.

This activity works on the records from a repository. If the repository has relationships with other repositories, any related records from other repositories are also processed. If any classification schemes are associated with the output maps used for synchronization, the records classification data file is also generated.

A zipped output is generated containing the following files:

  • If the ExecutionMode parameter is DBDump, records from the specified repository are exported without any transformation. Otherwise, records are exported in after transforming them to the output format using selected output maps. Multiple output files may be generated for record data from different repositories depending on the used output maps.

    Record data output file name format is as follows:


    OUTPUT_SynchronizationFormatName_timestamp.txt

  • One relationship file containing the record relationship information.

    Relationship output file name format is as follows:


    Relationship_timestamp.txt

  • One or more relationship attribute files are generated, depending on the number of relationships involved to output the relationship attributes data for the record relationships.

    Relationship attribute data file name format is as follows:


    RelationshipAttribute_RelationshipName_timestamp.txt

  • One or more classification output files may be generated containing records classification data, if the records are classified into classification schemes associated with the output maps used for synchronization.

    Classification output file name format is as follows:

    RepositoryName_ClassificationSchemeName_timestamp.txt

  • One index file containing information about generated output files.

    Index file name format is as follows:

    Index_timestamp.txt
