    Network Access with Authentication

    Search pattern
    Specify the search pattern with which to search for files. The search pattern may contain variables.

    If you use variables in the search pattern, you can use parts of the path or file name to determine the partner for whom the send job is to be created.

    Example: The files to be sent are stored in the C:\ EDI_OUT folder. The file names all begin with the name of the recipient, followed by a counter, for example, PARTNER1_001.out, PARTNER2_001.out. If the partners are created in accordance with the recipient's name in the file name, the send orders can be created using a single search pattern.
