Hi,

Based upon the physical file paths u have to create the logical file path through FILE t code.... one path for the source file and one more path for the log file.

u can create a log file in the application server like place a dummy text file in the application server based on that path create a logical file path.

so input should be ur source file logical path and out put should be logfile logical path

if u find it useful mark the points

but why it is required to specify file name again in last step? as i already defined the file in 'specify file' step...

and my source file is on application server only....

It is required in the Direct Input method... you have to create the logical file path by giving the physical file path and assign it in the last step of execution then... as you r doing in the session method u create a session n process that session here you have to give the logical file path and execute it....
