How-To Guides

Version 22.0.8473


This section contains complete guides to accomplish specific tasks in CData Arc.

Example MFT Connection

Arc uses the same configuration approach for many different types of Managed File Transfer connections (AS2, AS4, OFTP, SFTP, etc). The AS2 configuration guide details the two-step process of configuring a local profile and then configuring a single Connector for a trading partner.

This guide can be used as a comprehensive resource for establishing your own AS2 connections, or as a general example of how MFT trading relationships are established with Arc.

Example EDI Workflows

EDI mapping is one of the Arc core features. This section includes two in-depth guides for EDI mapping, one for incoming documents (mapped to a flat file) and one for outgoing documents (mapped from database output).

These guides are intended as comprehensive resources for creating your own similar mapping Flows. In addition, these guides can be referenced as general examples for how custom workflows are built in Arc to address specific business use cases.

Migration and Backup

This section contains instructions on backing up or migrating Arc configuration, logging, and transaction data. In addition to the practical applications of the guide, this section can be used as a reference to help understand how the application reads and writes data to the local filesystem and to application databases.
