Directory for temporary data

[Former Member]

Hi everyone!

I want to upload a file from the frontend and save it in a temporary location before processing it further. Is there a standard directory on the app server I can use (something like "%TMP% in windows, only standard for all types of SAP installations)?

You can use sapworkdir

'Software\SAP\SAPGUI Front\SAP Frontend Server\Filetransfer'

Hi,

Thanks - but I need a directory on the app server.

Also, the path should be OS-independent, i. e. it should come from transaction FILE or something like that...

Hi,

Go to Transaction AL11 -> DIR_TEMP /tmp/

You can place files in that folder

You can store it in the application server. There will be a temporary directory '/tmp'. Give any filename and it will create a file with that name in the path specified.

You can also create one using FILE transaction.

Check out transaction AL11 for existing directories.

Hope it helps.
