F is probably a local PC drive,

Batch jobs cannot access local drives.

Just remember what you usually after you scheduled a batch job to run in the night: you leave the company as usual and switch off your PC. So how should the batch job access this PC drive?

Setup a path to your SAP file system..

F moved to G now?

And why would you want to read a file name SD_CUSMAS........... if you want to write an archiving file for MM_MATBEL?

I think you are totally wrong with your setup of paths.

What was the reason? I just can see that the job failed, what does the log say?

is it because of missing authoization to write to the file system?
