About Custom TXT Feed
Custom TXT Feed in Feedyio enables creation of a product feed in plain text format for legacy systems, EDI communication, and specialized applications requiring specific text formats. TXT format offers maximum flexibility in defining output structure.
Text format is ideal for systems with specific requirements that are not compatible with standard formats like XML, CSV, or JSON. Many legacy ERP systems, industrial applications, and B2B partners still require specific text formats.
Feedyio supports three main types of text formats:
**Fixed-width**: Each field has precisely defined position and length. Used by mainframe systems, COBOL applications, AS/400, and some ERP systems. Example: character 1-20 = name, 21-30 = price.
**Delimited**: Similar to CSV, but with non-standard delimiters - pipe (|), tilde (~), or custom character. Also for tab-delimited formats without CSV quoting rules.
**Custom template**: Any text structure defined using template engine. Combine static text, dynamic values, conditions, and loops to generate any format.
Template engine is particularly powerful for EDI formats: - EDIFACT (international standard) - ANSI X12 (North America) - TRADACOMS (United Kingdom) - Proprietary corporate formats
Typical Custom TXT Feed use cases include: - Legacy ERP systems (SAP R/3, Oracle Applications) - Mainframe applications (IBM, AS/400) - EDI communication with B2B partners - Industrial control systems - POS terminals and cash register systems - Warehouse and logistics systems
For systems without HTTP access, we offer FTP/SFTP upload. Feedyio automatically uploads updated feed to your server according to set schedule. We also support various line endings (Unix, Windows, Mac) for maximum compatibility.
