Hi Venu,

Where do you wanted to create folders?

On the application server or user system

In case you wish to create in the application server then you can try this code

DATA: l_com TYPE rlgrap-filename,
       directory LIKE  BTCH0000-TEXT80.

directory = 'DIR_MAIN\MAIN_FOLDER\SD_DIR'.

CALL FUNCTION 'PFL_CHECK_DIRECTORY'
    EXPORTING
      directory         = directory
    EXCEPTIONS
      pfl_dir_not_exist = 1.

IF sy-subrc = 1.
    CONCATENATE 'cmd /c mkdir' directory INTO l_com SEPARATED BY space.
    CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD l_com.
ENDIF.

A folder is created in Windows SAP Server c:\usr\sap\YAS\DVEBMGS00\work\DIR_MAIN\MAIN_FOLDER\SD_DIR

Hi Abdul,

yes folders are created by basiss  that was linked to AL11 means Application server,now question is we specified one folder for Archiving(this is also linked to Application server) means old files or Already processed files,those files we need to move to Archiving folder.So end of the day this process will be done by background.So How can i do this.

Hi You need to create a custom utility program with usage of FM 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM' to call unix command MV for the same.

Related Transaction code is : SM69

Thanks!

Hi,

Give a custom command name like : ZMV

Assign External command: MV

Select additional parameters allowed.

You need to assign op.system as well.

Before calling   SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM.

CONCATENATE  lv_source " Source Path

                lv_destination       " Destination Path

                INTO lv_parameters SEPARATED BY space.

Then Pass lv_parameters to FM SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM as in  additional_parameters with Command.

something like below..

CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM'

     EXPORTING

       commandname                      = 'ZMV'

       additional_parameters            = lv_parameters

Thanks!
