Submit Collection also allows bulk uploading of data. The XML files are uploaded to <FTP>/share/recap/submitcollection/tst/<InstitutionName> from where SCSB picks up the data and uploads them into the DB. SCSB checks and loads the files from the FTP location every 5 seconds. An email is sent out post the completion of the bulk processing of the files. The email ids are configured under the external properties (external.submit.collection.email.pul.to for Princeton) file for each Institution.
The bulk upload process allows two different ways in which the records are processed. There is a protected folder and records uploaded through here doesn't have their CGD updated in SCSB and there is an unprotected folder through which records whose SCSB CGD needs to be updated with the CGD on the file are to be uploaded.
