Naming conventions for IMS Files

Naming conventions apply when you create or configure files for the IMS File Processing task. Ensure that these conventions are followed to use the IMS File Processing task feature successfully.

  • Avoid using underscores (_) in the Document Object Name. Names that contain an underscore are rejected. Use only letters and numbers.
  • If you are using a Variation ID in the Destination File Name, ensure that the time stamp format is consistent. It is recommended to use the current time stamp in long value format, for example UMMSWFMDEPARMENT202511241230.csv.
