001,tata,get,220311
001,tata,get,220312
001,tata,get,220313
002,manoj,get,220310
002,manoj,get,220311
002,manoj,get,220312
002,manoj,get,220313

003,game,get,220311
003,game,get,220312

use an external table then write some PL/SQL to get the data in the right tables.

Each time the file name will be changed.Is there any option in External table, where it will accept the dynamic file name in the defintion of external table.

where file naming convention can be like :

ALTER TABLE ... LOCATION ...
No need of PL/SQL just use an INSERT ALL.
