Presentation
In addition to the source and destination folders, entries with the detailed syntaxes in an annex document, for each type of document, the user specifies whether or not to carryout the transfer and if yes, the transfer can be contained within two transaction codes.
Validation of the box triggers the transfer of the transactions. A log file is displayed, giving the result of the transfer. Exiting the log file display allows the return to the initial screen to start a new transfer if required.
The path for the files to be copied can be relative or absolute. If it is relative, it is assumed to be part of the database directory of the current folder. If the # character is used in place of the server, the file is supposed to be located on the client workstation. Warning, there are opening restrictions for the files on the client workstation in Web mode.
