RFIDYYWT (Electronic File)

0 Kudos

It apears as if SAP has made it to where when running RFIDYYWT in the background, it will not generate a file. I get this from reading the Help entry for the Define Output Groups configuration (DME File) field...

"Save Mode

Using this parameter, you can control whether the data medium exchange file should be stored in the file system of the application server or be downloaded to the front-end client.

Note that you can only download if the report is started in dialog mode."

Can someone confirm that this is truly the case? If I have multiple Company Codes reporting under one Company Code, then this could run a while.

If I am missing something, please let me know.

The reason is only logical. When it is run in the background, it will not pop up to ask you where to store your file in your front end system. In this case, it can only output to the predefined space in the application server.

Thanks for your answer. However. I found that it is possible to run in the background. The setting you are referring to does not exist that I have seen.

There is no pop-up asking for a path, only a path setting on the input screen. My issue turned out to be a wierd security one, to where it would run fine to a specific location when running in the foreground, but not background. I changed the path on the input screen and it downloads fine.

Now I have an issue with memory consumption. It uses all of the allocated memory (8.6GB) and fails. I should mention that we have many Company Codes under one parent and many vendors per Company Code.
