No error generated if batch process load file uses wrong naming convention

Question

Another interesting one...
When using the batch processing functionality of FDM, which can be executed by either:
- FDM Workbench (manually)
- Hyperion FDM Task Manager (scheduled)
- upsShell.exe (scheduled and executed from a batch script)
..., one has to name the data file (to be loaded) using a specific file naming convention (i.e. "A~LOCATION~CATEGORY~PERIOD~RA.csv" format, for example). However, if one does not name the file correctly and then tries to process the file using batch processing functionality using any of the above three methods, FDM happily moves the file out of the OpenBatch folder and into a new folder, but the file is not loaded as it does not know where to map it to (as expected). However, there are no errors in Outbox\Logs\<username>.err to inform the user, so one is non the wiser that anything has gone wrong!
When using FDM Workbench, an error is displayed on the screen (POV - "Batch Completed With Errors, ( 1 ) Files Contained Errors"), but this is the only indication of any error. And normally, one would be scheduling the load using upsShell.exe or Hyperion FDM Task Manager anyway...
Has anyone else noticed this, or am I doing something wrong here? :-)

Answer 1

Yes, as per my original post the only feedback on any POV errors appears to be when using the FDM Workbench Batch Processing GUI.
Regarding the "Batch Process Report in FDM" you mentioned, are you referring to Analysis | Timeline accessible via FDM web client? Unfortunately this does not appear to provide much in the way of detail or errors, only general events that occurred. I cannot locate any batch process report, other than the log output I defined when calling upsShell.exe. However, this contains no POV errors...
