Handling Zero byte files on SCBN

For customer Electrolux - We are receiving intermittent zero byte files from Electrolux. Currently these messages are failing on SCBN with the below translation report. Client wanted to identify these files and update Inflight logger ExtraInfo details instead of failing it as red-light error.


Internally verified with mapper and it's possible to identify zerobyte using ITX map but above report doesn't look like from map. So, We wanted to handle these zero byte files on SPE so that we can use the map to identify zero byte files and update Inflight logging etc.,

    We do not allow zero files via translation, if a customer does this it will present an error.

    From time to time it happens, that existing SCBN integrations are fed with 0 byte files.

    (e.g. if an automated data extraction from SAP sometimes does not have any data to extract, but the file is still generated)

    Those 0 byte files always lead to an error in SCBN Inflight and currently they cannot be handled at all.

    Our idea is to get the possibility to handle 0 byte files in the map and throw a well defined error or warning message in Inflight and just stop the files without error.
