Schedule Tasks to run:

  • AS SOON AS TARGET FILE IS COMPLETE ( MOVEit Transfer and FileSystem only)
  • Once at a specific time (e.g., "at 5pm")
  • Several times in a specified time range (e.g., "from 1pm to 3pm")
  • Only on specific days of the month or weekdays (e.g., "Mondays, 3rd")
  • Until certain files are transmitted successfully
  • In response to other successful or failed transfers
  • When certain files are found on disk (e.g., "trigger files")
  • When commanded to do so by an external application through the MOVEit Automation API interface (Enterprise only)

Configure Tasks to:

  • Zip/unzip files
  • Only retrieve new files (e.g., "newer than 1 days" or simply "since the last time MOVEit Automation looked")
  • Only retrieve old files (e.g., "older than 7 days")
  • Only retrieve small or large files
  • Transfer available files in batches (up to X files or just more than Y bytes per task run)
  • Never overwrite existing files
  • Append to existing files
  • Create outbound folders if they do not already exist
  • Run simultaneously with many other tasks, even to different hosts
  • Ignore specified files or folders
  • Delete, rename or move source files after a successful transfer
  • Run command-line applications against files
  • Use macros (e.g. "[mm][yyyy]") to rename outbound files or select source files
  • Use macros to look for inbound files
  • Kick off other tasks or send email notifications in response to responses and failures
  • React to and/or parse "trigger files"
  • PGP Encrypt/Decrypt Files (Using native PGP and license)
  • SMIME Encrypt/Decrypt Files (Using Included SMIME Control)

  • Use Advanced Tasks to apply conditional processing and consolidate "chained" tasks (Enterprise only)

Configure Integrated Antivirus to:

  • Work with Symantec AntiVirus, McAfee VirusScan, and Trend Micro OfficeScan
  • Either ignore infected source files or actively delete them.

Configure Logs and Events to:

  • Write to a text file
  • Write to the Windows Application Event Log or a Windows "MOVEit" Event Log (either of these sources may be sent to SysLog or SNMP servers)
  • Send email notifications if tasks succeed, fail or do nothing

Monitor Tasks through:

  • Running "debug log" with extensive debugging information (e.g. FTP "200" messages)
  • Display of active and inactive tasks
  • "Reports" dialog with historical task run and audit events
