Launch application

[julie_jamieson2]

Hi,

I am trying to set up a batch file to be run from the launch application icon. When the user selects run, she gets a success message from SAP but the batch file does not run.

If the code inside the batch file is run from the command prompt by the user it runs.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks

In your batch, if u try to run an exe, u will need to use cd /F to switch that directory.

Hi Frank,

I am using the batch file to trigger a scheduled task, copy & paste of the code into the cmd prompt on the users PC does trigger the task, so I know the code is working, but Launch Application does not seem to trigger the batch file to run?

Ok, then use cmd.exe /K YouBatch.bat

Maybe give the full path of cmd. it should be c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe

Issue resolved by calling the schtasks application, then adding the /run /s "servername" /tn "jobname" into the parameters section.
