MFT Platform Server Preprocessing and Postprocessing Actions

Preprocessing actions define the action that can be taken before a transfer starts. Based on the return code from the preprocessing action, transfer can continue, terminate, or be retried at the next retry interval. Preprocessing requires Platform Server V8.1 or higher. Preprocessing is not supported on Internet Server.

Postprocessing actions define the action that should be taken when a transfer completes, either successfully or unsuccessfully. Postprocessing actions are supported on all Platform Servers. Limited postprocessing actions are also supported on Internet Servers as well.

The following preprocessing and postprocessing commands are supported:

Up to 256 bytes of data can be passed to the preprocessing or postprocessing action. Symbolic parameters can be used to pass transfer related information to the Preprocessing or Postprocessing data field.
