Hi,



I want to send a bunch of files to an FTP server.

Since the files are all PDF's of a given issue for a given publication, I want the following:



- Create a folder structure starting with the Publication name, the year as 2nd level and using the issue name as a 3rd level folder.

The files may or may not arrive "at the same time", it is possible that some file (correction) might be send later.



So the folder(s) should be created automatically and merged when already available. No folders should be overwritten, merge only. Files might be overwritten depending of the upload setting in the FTP connector.



All folder names should be derived form the name of the PDF. (The name is standardized, so a RegEx should be able to fix that, I assume)



Is this possible with Switch 11?





Publication A

- 1st Year

- 1st Issue

- 2nd issue

- 3d issue

- 2nd Year

- 1st Issue

- 2nd issue

- 3d issue





Publication B

- 1st Year

- 1st Issue

- 2nd issue

- 3d issue

- 2nd Year

- 1st Issue

- 2nd issue

- 3d issue







Hope to hear!

Yes, the scenario you describe is within the standard functionality of Switch. The "FTP send" element has the same hierarchy submitting component as the "archive hierarchy" element.



Have a look at the element descriptions in http://www.enfocus.com/Manuals/UserGuid ... S/home.htm

Hi Thorsten,



Thanks for the info.

I'll look into this.



Now I know it is possible I think I can pull this off.

Most of the time the problem is not knowing if a configuration/producter etc. does "know" certain functionality.
