Hi,

I need to develop an outbound interface to download a file which contains employee details who are eligible for STD/LTD facilities benifits.

then the file needs to be encrypted using some PGP process and then we need to send file to vendor via FTP.

Hi Fardeen,

To create outbound interface you should follow the following steps.

1. Fetch data from required database tables

2. Create file ffrom this data either at presentation server or application server

3. To create file at presentation server use GUI_download FM or create file on application server use Open dataset statement

4. encrypt this file (i am not sure how) and send it via FTP.

For FTP use following FMs

FTP_CONNECT

FTP_COMMAND

FTP_DISCONNECT
