mosalicAs the new SFTP will be used for many services (GBD,GDD,PATENTSCOPE and IPAS Support), the following folder arrangement should be used, to facilitate the distribution of data:




|_Designs

            |_Full_Extraction

            |_Updates

            |_Test

|_Trademarks

            |_Full_Extraction

            |_Updates

            |_Test

|_Patents

            |_Full_Extraction

            |_Updates

            |_Test

|_Support

            ….




For published IP data exchange with WIPO, please use as follow:
ServiceMain folderFull_Extraction sub-folderUpdates sub-folderTest sub_folder
GBDTrademarks/Trademarks/Full_Extraction/Trademarks/Updates/Trademarks/Test
GDDDesigns/Designs/Full_Extraction/Designs/Updates/Designs/Test
PATENTSCOPEPatents/Patents/Full_Extraction/Patents/Updates/Patents/Test


Be aware that the folder will also be used for the backup of previously uploaded data.

Just keep uploading the new files, the life-cycle of the data will keep the files in storage for up to two years (unless they are manually deleted).

So please, unless is indicated, do not manually delete any previously uploaded file. 

For exchange of information with IPAS Operational Support:

In case of the exchange of "files" with Op-Support (dumps, configuration files, pdf, etc.), please use the /Support folder.

If necessary (and only for IPAS OP-Support), you are free to create sub-folders under "/Support", in case you consider is necessary to separate the content to upload of any other content already present in "/Support"
