This is the content of the link

Unix Shell scripts along with ABAP can be used to perform many tasks.

These can be used for sending internet mail w/o using SAP Connect,

archiving files, passing data from one system to another, etc.

The following example demonstrates how to use shell script for moving a file

from one folder to another folder. This can be used for archiving the processed files.

Requirement : SAP installed on Unix or

its clones. SAP version 4.0 or above.

Unix Setup to be done by Unix Admin

(1) Create a folder under unix

Eg: /home/ABAP/scripts/

Make sure this folder has Read Write and

Execute permissions.(Mode 777)

(2) Create a file Archive_file.sh in

Unix using any editor.

(2) Type

mv $1 $2

in the file. Make you type the command as shown.

(3)Save it.

(4) Make sure the file has read write

execute permissions (Mode 777)

SAP Configuration

(1) Run transaction SM69

(2) Hit F5 and then Hit F6

(3) Enter Command Name : ZSHELL

(4) Operating System will default to

Unix or HP-UX etc.

(5)Enter Operating System Command : sh

(6)Additional Parameters allowed : X

(7) Save it.
