Execute an External Command

Functionality

SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM: Execute External Command (Express Method)

Using this function module, you can:

o Check a user's authorization to execute a command

o Execute the command

To determine the system on which the command should be executed, the

function module uses by default the current host system and the current

operating system type of the user.

As the function module is RFC-capable, you can use the RFC interface

(Remote Function Call Interface) to run the function module in a

different SAP application server. The external command is then

accordingly executed in the host system of the other SAP server.

SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM uses the following rules to determine which variant of

a command is used for the execution:

o If a command with the same operating system type as the one in the

sytem field SY-OPSYS exists, this definition is used for the

execution of the command.

o If the first check fails, the syntax group for SY-OPSYS is determined. A syntax group is an SAP construct that groups operating

systems that use the same syntax for commands and filenames. If a

command whose operating system type matches the determined syntax

group, this definition of the command is used.

o If no matching definition is found for the syntax group, the

function module searches for a definition with the operating system

type ANYOS (executable in all supported operating systems). This

definition is then used, if found.

o Otherwise, the exception COMMAND_NOT_FOUND is triggered.
