Kindly help me for the following problem which is affecting us from a long time.

This problem is regarding using WTX in OPC of Z/OS system.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The WTX Map that we use can process only one invoice at a time. Hence we divided the whole process into 3 step design:

· Load all the invoices into MQ and take one invoice at a time from MQ convert it into XML.

· Run the XML invoice against the WTX MAP and then send it across to downstream

· Check if more invoices are present and add the application again to perform the above process and so on.., the application keeps getting added until all the invoices are processed.



The problem here is if there are ‘N’ invoices then the application is added and run ‘N’ number of times. There are situations when there can be lakhs of invoices generated in a single file, In such cases, adding and running the application lakhs of times would involve huge Runtime and thereby causing the performance issue.


In Other words,

Overall Runtime/Turn around time = Time taken by WTX tool to process each invoice + OPC running time (i.e, time taken for addition of each occurrence and the individual job execution time excluding the time taken for WTX process)



We are now looking for a design that can avoid the second part of the Overall Runtime which is caused by OPC adding and running time for the entire phase. For this we need a design in which the that accepts, multiple invoices to WTX Map can accept multiple invoices at a time and the WTX map need to process all the invoices one by one and generate the output either all in one file or separate files.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please help me regarding the above problem. Is it possible to add multiple inputs in OPC using WTX ? I would be more than happy to provide any more information regarding this.

Perhaps you would be better off posting this in a WTX or OPC forum as it does not appear to be WMQ-related in any way other than an invoice is sent to you as message payload.

Also, not everyone may know what a lakh is without the help of Google

1 lakh = 100,000 for those too lazy to look it up...

Such as the forum is found here:

And someone might suggest driving the map using the Event Server thereby giving you the ability to run several instances of the map concurrently
