Map Interchange Contrl#, Group Contrl# and Transactionset Contrl# to Rule Macro

We have a list of macro functionality to use in the routing rule configurations in BPN.  for example SUBSTRING, destinationfilename, DATETIME etc. 

Often times we get request from trading partners to use Interchange Contrl# in the destination filename being sent to them via FTP,SFTP or any other protocol. Having this macro will be easier to meet their requirement by simply providing #InterchangeControNumber. in the macro expression

The implementation, PER and support teams will be benefited if this could be made available.

What is your industry? Other
How will this idea be used?

A user will enter the Expression ( #InterchangeControlNumber) in the rule whenever a trading partner requests that information to be part of the filename.
