Solved: os400 external program for outbound trigger

Former Member · ‎04-20-2009

Hi,

My question is about calling an external program in OS400 in the outbound trigger section of a file port.

I have defined a file port in order to save idocs as files, and afterwards I want to send them via ftp with a program in os400 created for this goal.

Is it possible?

OS400 gave me the following syntax:

CALL PGM(R3TRANS/TRC00) PARM(idoc_file_name)

Thanks

Hi Alberto,

I would assume, SAP is using zero-terminated strings here ...

What does happen in your program and how does the joblog look like ?

I would hope, that it works, bit the idoc cannot be found as the parameter transfer doesn't work ...

What SAP release are you on and what is the kernel patch level ?
