Experts,

1) When and why would we have to use UNIX programming in ABAP?

2) Typically what scenarios ask for UNIX programming in SAP/ABAP?

3) Are there any standard examples to refer to?

Helpful answers will be gratefully rewarded.

we need to execute some OS level commands like Unix in your case from ABAP program.

We can execute the shell script (construction of set of unix os commands) from SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE function modules.

Once we/OS experts create a shell script/OS command, we need to register this in SAP from SM69 and we can also execute from SM49.
