    Lakshmi,

    It is possible to launch a work item using a pre-processor on a Scheduled Import (or Scheduled Export).  Since a pre-processor is invoked BEFORE an import is processed, the Scheduled Import that imports the file needs to invoke a Custom Scheduled Import or Scheduled Export as a Dependent Operation.  The dependent job needs to be configured with the pre-processor (for Import) or post-processor (for Export).  It's the same processor in both cases.  The saved set generated for the actual Import needs to be passed to the dependent operation that invokes the processor.  The EnterWorks Tech Talk: "ETT 042 - Launching Work Items From Scheduled Jobs" in the Precisely University provides detailed instructions on how to do this.  Then in the workflow with a reference to the saved set, the list of items in that saved set can be retrieved and iterated through in a loop for individual validations, if you needed to take different action at the record level based on the validation outcome.  Details on how to loop through a set of records in a workflow is covered in the EnterWorks Tech Talk:  "ETT 017 - EPX Workflow Activities - Split Property and SQL Update Repository Records" in the Precisely University.  But if you just need to validate the records, then you can configure the import to Validate Afterwards so it is performed as part of the import job.
