Hi,

you can transfer file from SRM server to FTP server with the help of FTP

go to command promote connect your FTP server

ftp

ftp> open domain.name

Connected to domain.name

220 antigonous FTP server ready.

User (domain.name:(none)): User-Name

331 Password required for user-name

Password: password

230 User user-name logged in.

ftp>

then go particular directory

ftp> cd /web

The following command will copy a file from the local system to the remote system.

ftp> put d:\simoweb1\filename.txt

200 PORT command successful.

Opening ASCII mode data connection for filename.txt

226 Transfer complete

ftp>

This is manual process you can automat this process, create one batch file and execute it in every five minute and when file move successfully to FTP server move one copy to archive folder

Thanks

Hi,

The following batch file (UPWIP001.BAT) will start an FTP session and pass the name of a text file (UPWIP001.TXT) to the FTP program. This text file will be processed by the FTP program and each of the statements in the text file will be processed in the sequence they appear.

echo * This batch and text file illustrate the use of FTP to upload an

echo * ASCII file and an EBCDIC or Binary file. The UPWIP001.BAT file

echo * references UPWIP001.TXT that contains...

echo *

echo * user

echo * password

echo * cd /web

echo * pwd

echo * ascii

echo * put d:\simoweb1\cbltxn01.htm

echo * binary

echo * put d:\simoweb1\cbltxn01.zip

echo * quit

echo *

ftp -s:upwip001.txt www.simotime.com

The following is a listing of the contents of the text file (UPWIP001.TXT).

user

password

cd /web

pwd

ascii

put d:\simoweb1\cbltxn01.htm

binary

put d:\simoweb1\cbltxn01.zip

quit

Thanks

Hi Amit,

I need to run a program on a daily basis that downloads the text file and that file should be sent to FTP server every time it runs.For this can you just explain me the above process and i hope this will solve my problem.

Hi,

If you are using windows OS then you can use schedule task manager to fix the schedule when you want to run this program

Hi,

create batch file .. open notepad and write down blow thing

ftp -i -s:login.txt

move sap.txt D:\srmSERVER

and then create one txt file that name login .txt login file contain below data

open 192.168.0.24

username

password

cd /usr/sap/SRMfile

mput sap.txt

quit

192.168.0.24 is your FTP server IP and /usr/sap/SRMfile is directory of ftp SERVER
