Select the radio button in this section that describes how the processing workstation will access the import file.
By default, the No Download radio button is selected.
FTP processing is only functional for the following modules: EDI 130, EDI 810, EDI 835, EDI 837, AFP Input Filter, some Check Import Processes, the NSF Return Process (Check21), COLD/ERM, Document Import Processor, HL7, Keyword Updater, PCL Input Filter, Physical Records Management, and XML Index Document Import Processor.
Download Protocol Options |
Description |
---|---|
No Download |
Select if the file(s) to be processed does not need to be downloaded to the processing workstation (i.e., the files are already accessible locally on your computer, LAN or WAN). Note:
When using FTP with the No Download option, preprocessors cannot be used unless they have been created with the ability to access files via FTP. |
FTP Download |
Note:
To use the FTP Download option, the build-specific mzftp.dll file must be located in the same folder as the OnBase executables. This DLL requires the wininet.dll file, which is typically installed with Microsoft® Internet Explorer 4.01 or higher. Select this radio button if you are using File Transfer Protocol to obtain files for processing. Ensure that the format of the FTP server's URL is specified correctly. For example: FTP Server\:Port\\FTP Download Path\ Where FTP Server is replaced with the name of the FTP server or IP address and FTP Download Path is replaced with the name of the FTP directory on that server. Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is not supported for use with EDI 835. Note:
Depending on the FTP server you are connecting to, the syntax of your FTP server's URL may be different. Tip:
The port is normally 21, but your solution may be different. Tip:
For performance or character length reasons, it is recommended that you replace the server name with its IP address. Try some benchmarks, and if name resolution causes a performance degradation, then make the corresponding change in the Configuration module, under Disk Groups | Volume Information.
Note:
Before processing, the files must be accessible from the workstation. |
Socket Download |
A TCP/IP socket can be used if it is the only way to capture the EDI 835 data. Select the Socket Download option in specific instances to allow a connection that downloads information to the processing workstation. Enter the specification number of the socket download connection in the Socket Number field. Note:
Before processing, the files must be accessible from the workstation. |
