Working with transfer templates
You can use file transfer templates to store common file transfer settings for repeated or complex transfers. Either create a transfer template from the command line by using the fteCreateTemplate command or use the WebSphere® MQ Explorer to create a transfer template by using the Create New Template for Managed File Transfer wizard, or save a template while you are creating a file transfer by selecting the Save transfer settings as a template check box. The Transfer Templates window displays all of the transfer templates that you have created in your WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition network.
