How do I change my default "SAP Working Directory" to the one I wish ?

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

How do I change my default "SAP Working Directory" to the one I wish ?

At the moment default SAP Working Directory to set to the following directory.

"C:\Documents and Settings\T51273\SapWorkDir"

So, when ever I try to download a Report/Table Contents/Spool Request, SAP prompts me to save in the above SAP Working Directory, which is "C:\Documents and Settings\T51273\SapWorkDir". Ofcourse I can change the folder in the dialogue box, but I don't want to change the folder each and every time I download a report from SAP.

I wish to change my default "SAP Working Directory" to "My Documents" Folder. So that from next time,

if ever I try to download a Report/Table Contents/Spool Request, SAP should prompt "My Documents" Folder. That way I don't have to change the folder at the time of saving.

Full Points are assigned for an answer that works...

Thank You,

Nag.

Hi,

On the easy access screen, press Alt+F12, Click on options and go to the Local Data tab. Here change the path and then your problem should be resolved.

Hi AKV,

It didn't work (It's more like a Cache Memory).

The following Transaction Code is the answer (Answered by our SAP Basis Team)

SO21 - Maintain PC Work Directory.

Thanks anyway for your help.

Hello,

A short question about transaction SO21:

Is this a local setting, per GUI?

Or does this affect all users?

I have a problem opening an attachment (Mandates).

SAP wants to save it to C:\Windows\System32\

I see that is stated at SO21.

If I change that to another (accessable) location, does that affect the opening of the attachment?

Thanks!
