Hi,

I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this message.

I have to pick up the files from a FTP location and move it to the application server. We do not have any middleware like PI.

Can anyone please help me with the steps to setup the FTP connection with the server and create the commands to move the file between the servers.

any help will be highly appriciated.

Regards,

Ashutosh

You can use the function modules in function group 'SFTP'.

Thanks for your replies.

I am actually looking for approach with creating SM69 commands to move the files.

Also, it would be great if someone can please help me with the steps to create a FTP connection between SAP and FTP server. I beleive the FTP server should be somehow visible to SAP for transfer of files.
