The Work around we got for this is replacing the XML Assembly with the XML Transformer stage. (We had to write lot of Transformations code to achieve it though !! )

Now the jobs are not at all failing even for much higher volumes.

Hi, Thanks for the reply.

Using that Property gives the Output column with the Wild card format.
It is not giving the exact file name from where the record is sourced.

Do you have any record field identifier which says it is a parent/Child record ? I guess there should be some. (Lets say .. First three bytes in your example. If it is '001' it is parent record else its a child record) In that case, use Sequential file to read the file and a Filter on that Identifie...
