How to transfer files from SAP-ABAP via SFTP

[martin_kirschey]

Hello Experts,

We want to implement/use SFTP-Protokoll from SAP Appl Server (ABAP) to send Files.

Could you please let me know the possible options to implement SFTP in EHP8 FOR SAP ERP 6.0?

Maybe there is already a suitable function module for this?

Kind regards, Martin

Hi Martin,

we are scripting WinSCP via SM69. Of course this only works with a Windows server.
On Linux you could make instead use of sftp or curl via SM69.

Best regards,
Holm

If you have Process Orchestration on your systems, check for the presence of component such as PIB2BSFTP (Secure connectivity Add-on)

Otherwise, the classic solution was to use two FTP servers, one simple FTP and one S-FTP. SAP will exchange data with the non-SFTP server, and this non-SFTP server will locally exchange data with the SFTP server, which is open to the outside world.
