Version: Epicor 9.05.604
I have a program which converts Excel forecasts (tab-delimited .TXT)
saved into a particular folder into the format expected by Sales
Forecast Entry > Import Forecast.
I tried to invoke this as a ServiceConnect "file drop" but ran into some
problems which I haven't worked around just yet (see a below).
As a "Plan B" I tried to set up a recurring schedule task which will
launch the program at an interval. The schedule is running at a 10
minute interval (0001000 entry) as confirmed in System Monitor but I
don't see a way to define a task which simply runs an external ABL
procedures.
Does anyone know if this is possible? What the entries in the task
detail fields to make it work?
"Plan C" is to try SonicMQ to see if it can monitor for a file drop and
RUN an ABL program (INPUT File-name). Anybody been there-- tried that
-- given up?
(a) ServiceConnect cannot call ABL directly so I have to trick it into
modifying a UD40 record which has a BPM to run my code, but I get
"Duplicate Record" when I GetbyID then Update the UD40.
