This type of File Migration jobs read data from file and transfer data into the database. See Start Read from File for more information.
This procedure can be used to read files and load data into container tables. Data in container tables are used in subsequent processing. Files can be read from client environment folders by functionality in the Windows client (OnClient) or from database server environment folders (OnServer) by functionality in the Oracle database. When dealing with large files it is always recommended to use the on OnServer approach.
Procedures Insert_By_Method_New, Insert_Or_Update and Check_By_Method_New can be used to migrate data from a text file to a single logical unit in IFS applications. Jobs are configured very similar to Create_Table_From_File job type but the destination of data is a logical unit table rather than a container table as in Create_Table_From_File.
This type of File Migration job transfer data from the database and write them to a file. See Start Write to File for more information.
