Hi,

I do not think there is a standard in SAP itself. File transfer normally depends on OS. You should do the transfer by script. After that it should be no problem to trigger this from inside SAP by ABAP code.

Here is a tiny sample code which handles file transfer from one windows based machine to another. It works with temporary mapping (drive y). real password is replaced by <pwd???> in code.

Hope it helps!
