UMF file conversion utility script files define how input files are converted into UMF records.
There are five sections in the UMF file conversion utility script file. The first four sections are set up during implementation and will not likely change. Customer-specific transforms start after the BeginTransforms line in the TRANSFORM section.
Section | Description |
GLOBAL | Specifies which record the UMF file conversion utility starts with. |
RECORD | Specifies which definition file to use. |
IMPORT | Specifies the RECORD section to use and record type. |
EXPORT | Specifies where the UMF file conversion utility delivers the output. |
TRANSFORM | Contains a description of all the operations that you want the utility to perform on incoming data. In this section, after the BeginTransforms line, all segments are applied to each record. |
