Check for double files

[Kris]

Hi all,

I have a folder where EDI order message files are created.
Sometimes they are created double, which is not good.
I want to create a test that alerts when a double file is created.

The filenames look like this:
ORDER_<order#>_<datetime>.XML

Example of double file to be detected:

Code: Select all

ORDER_21723_20201113171001.XML
ORDER_21723_20201113182345.XML
  ^     ^          ^
type  order#    date+time

This EDI order message file has been generated twice, with a different timestamp.

Any chance of detecting these without external scripting?

Thanks!

Sorry, there is no built-in test for such task
