Re: How to FTP IFS files to another system

Hello

FTP is not very smart, it can use wildcards in the names, a little, but not based on dates. If you use FTP, I suggest you get the subset into yet another directory - it might be possible with a single QShell function combining find and piping to a copy function. Then FTP from this other directory to the SAP server.

Does you SAP server have an NFS server on it? Then you could mount that in the IFS and simply copy files over there.

Hello

How are you ?

Like to consult with you & see if you would share your expertise if you had
to do this before.



We are saving XML files in a separate IFS archive folder let us say /mydir

This will host a bunch of transaction files (.xml) created over the last 90
days.



I like to send a subset of those files for example with a creation date of
October 2021 to an SAP BRIM system.


Like to ask if this is possible through an RPG program or does it need a Q
Shell script.

Either way I have no clue how to proceed.


Appreciate any tips or the source program you could share with us if you
had to do this in the past.


Happy Holidays!
