For some Filenet installations, upstream servers convert report data (from EBCDIC to ASCII) and change the formatting of the report.  Content Manager OnDemand doesn't need any data transformation, and can ingest EBCDIC reports (of fixed record length, stream, or variable record lengths) directly and without conversion.  Some conversion tools (I'm looking at you, MQ Series File Transfer Edition) can be configured to change the report so drastically, that CMOD can't properly index it.

Wherever possible, remove any data conversion and deliver report data to OnDemand in its original format.
