Question
Generate individual BIX XML for each case (work object)
Team,
We are executing BIX (07-10-33) in command line. Hence we create a BAT file that calls extract rule and extract rule generates XML in given folder location.
OOB implementation is XML will capture all the cases from last run and generate one single XML for all the cases. In Extract rule configuration there is no provision to generate XML for case by case. The command line has z and Z parameters which we may call in a loop in BAT file.
1. Is this approach (z/Z parameters) recommended?
2. Is there any other way of implementing the individual XMLs?
Regards,
Jayantha

Hi Jayantha,
Just got an Idea to fulfill the requirement:
1. Configure an queue to hold the cases you want to extract
2. Use a substitution string in the filename like %s to change the file name for each extract rule
3. Configure pxExtractDatawithArgs activity in the agent.
The above procedure should generate a separate file for each queue item.
Thank you,

Hi Adithya,
Did you achieve extract for each caseid, if yes can you let us know the parameters passed is this the below one
"z \"TEST-TESTAPP-WORK G-12" -Z \"TEST-TESTAPP-WORK G-12\""

Hi Jayantha,
There is no other way to generate a separate xml file for each case when using BIX as of now.
If you loop through the -z/-Z values, you might have to run the entire script again which will load the engine for each case and extract the data which is lot of overhead.
Do a performance testing when run this script in loop to decide on whether you can go for this option.
The other option could be to process the file later and generate separate file for each case from original file.
Thank you,
Adithya
