Chargeback Interfaces - Merge Multiple Files

There is an option in the usercontext.py to merge files with a specific naming convention. The default setting for MERGE_INDIRECT_FILES is "False", meaning the merge will not take place and the interface will function as it always has in the past. When set to "True", the file merge option will automatically be called when the chargeback batch is initiated. The purpose is to allow saving multiple 844 files in the data folder and have iContracts recognize them as new and upload them when the job is triggered. INDIRECT.txt can follow either of the following two naming conventions:

INDIRECT_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.txt

Example: INDIRECT_20180101010101.txt

OR

INDIRECT_YYYYMMDD(SEQ NUMBER)

Example: INDIRECT_2018010101.txt

Example: INDIRECT_2018010102.txt

After the files are merged and loaded, the files will all be renamed so they are not picked up again.
