SA File Transfer Administration overview

System Administrator > Administration > File Transfer

Function acronym: SAAFT

In CloudSuite Distribution, use this function to transfer data files from a local directory to a shared file system. The shared file system must be accessible to Report Scheduler. You must transfer the files before they can be processed in Distribution SX.e reporting functions.

When a transfer is initiated, a message is displayed indicating the progress of the transfer. You must complete a file transfer before initiating another one.

Each tenant has its own directory name prefix in the shared file system.

Note: Files larger than 60MB in size are split into smaller segments during the transfer. This prevents errors from occurring when attempting to transfer large files. If files are split, the transfer progress message shows the progress of all files. For example, 2 of 6 # of Parts.
