Hello,
I want to track manual data-entries done by the users of an application.
Therefore i:
- parse (through Text file data reader and Board ETL) the appropriate file
- trigger this datareader in a procedure run by the user BUT the procedure step needs a fixed filename whose name is not changing over time.

Details:
The source file is: Board_Path\Dataset\Log\DataEntry_YYYYMM.log which i see after having activated the appropriate entry in the system administration:
I have found a description of this file here: https://community.board.com/discussion/16559/board-platform-logs-other-logs-1-of-2 , see § 3.5 Dataentry Log
By the way, the information :
is not correct, i don't see headers in the file… you see the row #1 contains transactional data, not a header:
My issue is regarding the filename: DataEntry_YYYYMM.log
It is a dynamic filename: last week it was DataEntry_202510.log, this week DataEntry_202511.log.
I want the text file data reader which reads the DataEntry_YYYYMM.log file to run via procedure (and i have this kind of steps in five procedures).
as you can guess, i don't like the idea of updating manually and monthy a few procedures….
Does anyone had a similar issue with calling log files datareaders and could share solutions?
Many thanks in advance
