I was wondering if the following scenerio is possible.

Suppose you have a program which uploaf file on the server.

And there is an XI development part who in turn pick up the file.

Is it possible for the XI part to pick up a file while the program has not finished uploading all file.

Coz this will result in a file being cut and pick up wrongly.

please advise

Hi,

XI would not be able to pick up the file in edit status.

Hi,

Yes its possible that XI might pick up the file half way while the ABAP is wiriting the file.

I suggest that you write the file to a temp dierctory first then move it to the source directory from where XI can pick up the file.
