Outbound process-Picking up the file automatically

[Former Member]

Hi All,

In outbound processing,we have configured to get the output file in the XML format and used the EDI_PATH_CREATE_DATE_TIME function module in WE21 to get the output file along with the time and date.We have to pick up the XML file and do the FTP(for doing the FTP tranfer we have written one ZPROGRAM) transfer to the EDI Subsystem.The problem we are facing here is that the created XML(along with the time and date)0utput file should be automatically picked by the ZPROGRAM written for ftp transfer.Previously we have done that by giving manually the file name as a inputparameter in the ZPROGRAM and then transfer it to the EDI Subsystem.

Kindly give a suggestion as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

can u put the file in a standard place and the modify the zprogram to read the file in the specific location?

Or, u can use logical files. With it, u can use custom function to construct the whole path of the filename to read.

For more informations about logical files (and how determine the namefile runtime), u can read the in-line documentation of the file field of the trx "FILE"

Hope it helps

Bye

Andrea
