Define data carrier directory in My Documents

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are defining a DMS system, and would like to use the local directory defined for SAP as the directory where secured documents are accessed.

In our case, when accessing local options in SAP the directory defined is c:\documents and settings\windows user\sapworkdir

In data carrier definition we have a field path where we should need to enter the correspondent directory.

Which value should we enter to be able to use this default local directory?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Neil

Hi Neil

Did you try giving Default Entries in identify front end computers in define data carrier type?

There give the path of the local directory and check.

Hi,

Your idea is right but, how can I declare a variable path? The path depends on the windows user logged in...

Thanks.

Hi Neil

In spro Define server front end type itself you can give the path of the directory from where you can access the originals for dispalying.

Prasad,

Thanks for your answer but, from what I can see, in that path I can only define a static path. I need the path to be different for each user...

And not even SAP users, but taking into account the windows logon user.

That much sap does it when defining the local directory (for downloading reports, local files, etc.). I need to do the same but to this frontend path.

Any idea?

Thanks

Hi Neil

In general dat there is Define Profile option in which you can create a profile and assign it to a user or user group. in that Determine Definitions for applications there is an option to give a work directory for the user/profile. But it is useful for a sap user only as far as i know.
