I am relatively new at PF development, but what I read, I want to use ScnaFileClient to kick off a Flow when someone FTP's a file to a directory. I know I need to create a ScanFileCLient.cfg but I don't really know how to use it. Can someone give be a very simple explanation on how to of ScanFIleCLient? Perhaps an example? We are a Windows shop. Thanks.

You create a ScanFileClient config file for each unique folder you want to monitor/process flow you want to run (i.e. unique config/parameters are required for monitoring each given directory); the config file has the following parameters:
# Lawson host name or IP address
BCIHost=lawson.example.com
# Port number for Process Flow
BCIPort=16002
# logan
CCProdLine=logan
# username/password for running process flow; get the encrypted password from %LAWDIR%/system/pfserv.cfg
HostLogin=lawson
Password=<
>
# Process flow service to execute for each incoming file
Procedure=<
>
# TRUE to read entire file or FALSE for record by record (i.e. each record creates a workunit)
Batch=TRUE
# folder to monitor
ScanDir=E:\incoming
# file types to look for
Extension=.CSV
# optional location to archive files after processing
ArchiveDir=E:\archive
Manually invoking ScanFileClient:
E:\LINTE\gen\bin\ScanFileClient.exe -ConfigFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.cfg -ErrorLogFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.errors -LogFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.log
To invoke it automatically at system startup, you can include that command in a startup script.
Or you can add it to %LAWDIR%/system/laserv.cfg with a tag:
scfsamp "E:\LINTE\gen\bin\ScanFileClient.exe -ConfigFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.cfg -ErrorLogFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.errors -LogFile ScanFileClient-Sample1.log"
And then use:
E:\LINTE\gen\bin\startserv.exe scfsamp
