Hi

You have to define it by trx SM69 and call it by fm SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.

Hi try the below code

parameters : p_sfile(60) lower case

"File to be moved

"Eg : /home/in/SFILE1.txt

p_dfile(60) lower case.

"File's Destination

"Eg: /home/archive/SFILE1.txt

data : t_btcxpm

like btcxpm occurs 0,

p_addparam

like sxpgcolist-parameters.

concatenate

'/home/ABAP/scripts/Archive_file.sh'

p_sfile

p_dfile

into p_addparam separated by space.

refresh t_btcxpm. clear t_btcxpm.

call function 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM'

exporting

commandname = 'ZSHELL'

additional_parameters = p_addparam

tables

exec_protocol = t_btcxpm

exceptions

no_permission = 1

command_not_found = 2

parameters_too_long = 3

security_risk = 4

wrong_check_call_interface = 5

program_start_error = 6

program_termination_error = 7

x_error = 8

parameter_expected = 9

too_many_parameters = 10

illegal_command = 11

others = 12.

if sy-subrc = 0.

write : /

'File',p_sfile,'moved to',p_dfile.

else.

write : / 'Error Occured'.

endif.

do you mean I have to write the script in SM69, then call that script using the function module?
