    Hi team,

    What is all required for webMethods to place the file in the target Mainframe system.
    Do we require Natural for this requirement.

    Please let me know if this is feasible in webMethods.
    I have not done this before…

    Hello ,

    We are using NDM to feed data to MainFrame applications in current project. Could you please evaluate what are the other file transfer options using which your mainframe can receive data?

    Regards
    Sasa

    Hi,

    if the Mainframe is capable to host an SSH Daemon or a FTP(S) service you can use some Built-In functions from the IS.

    Another option might be to check for Active Transfer product (Managed File Transfer, MFT) available from Software AG.

    Regards,
