The Metadata with Parent - Child Relationship reside within the data file and we want to update the members during data load. Is ACM suitable to load data file as well?
I am far from an ACM expert. As far as I know ACM is not configured to import data files but it does manage the process of creating metadata members. You would need to write an event handler (probably TransformationEventHandler) to pick up the new metadata members and hand them over to an ACM-like process. That would involve populating the custom ACM tables with the metadata info and then committing those changes. You would need to install the ACM app and then import some test metadata and follow it through the process so that you can then adapt it to a data file import.
