SAP BW: Automatic sending of server files (al11) to a shared Windows directory

[pmarquesg]

Hi Guys!,

I have created a data model whose data source is a query that is loaded into an open hub which generates a .csv output file in a directory on the al11 transaction server.
And I would need to send this file to another server to deposit it in a Windows directory.
Do you know how I could configure the sending of the file in BW?

BR,

your target folder has to be mapped/mounted in AL11,
so you can send your file also with OpenHub

I think these are your options:

• mount the target directory so it is available via AL11 (OS) and then you direct the OpenHub file to that folder
• write an OS level script, which copies the file from the ABAP AS folder to the desired target folder and execute it once the file has been created. If you load via Process Chain, it has a variant with which you can start OS commands, so theoretically you can automate this
