Concatenation

Rubika® is able to append multiple data files together. When concatenating, Rubika does not change the order of the content in the files, it simply appends the files together in a logical order. Rubika processes all files matching the File Mask in the Input Directory in one process step. Rubika concatenates files in the following orders: alphabetical (A to Z, 0 to 9), FIFO (First In First Out), or LIFO (Last In First Out).
