Hi,

You can find sapevt.exe in your kernel path(Drive:-usr\sap\SID\SYS\exe\run)

Please have a look at below mentioned SAP Notes.

Note 374379 - Triggering SAPEVT from a remote host

Note 642464 - Profile file for the sapevt program

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I've been searching for assistance to use sapevt and found your message.

Are you able to assist me in the following scenario:

I would like to use sapevt on a windows XP machine in order to let SAP R/3 know that I'm finished copying a file to a certain folder. The EventA in SAP will be responsible to launch a SAP Job to modify these files.

I've successfully launched sapevt EVENTA name=SYS1 nr=00 mshost=host1 on a linux machine with SAP R/3 kernel 6.40. However, I would like to be able to launch sapevt from a Windows computer.

Is there any possibility to get this working?

Kind regards,

Dieter De Meyer
