CTS+ - How to hide "export using Filesystem" from PI tool?

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I have already implemented "How To Configure Enhanced CTS PI 7.1", now I wonder If it is possible to hide export using Filesystem since I would like to force people using "Export using CTS" from PI tools.

I have alredy surfing on internet without luck : (

Could you pleas help with this?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Emili

The Exchange Profile parameters below control whether the "Transport Using File System" option is visible in the transport wizard. If you set the parameters to "false" (without the " and all in lower case) then this transport option will no longer be visible.

1) com.sap.aii.ibrep.core.transport.enableFileExport

2) com.sap.aii.ibdir.core.transport.enableFileExport

If these parameters do not already exist in the Exchange Profile, you can create them and set the value to false.

A Nice blog was written by Mike which explains this

Hi Emili

I don't think this is actually documented anywhere at the moment. We will create a new note with this information, which should be available by the end of the day. The note number will be 1672811.

Hello Emili,

currently this is not possible. The option 'File system' in the package export Editor in the Portal can't be removed. As a workaround, I suggest to remove the 'import' menu entry from the target . this, you could make sure that only imports done via CTS+ reach the target .

Kind regards

If I don't say wrong, this function is impossible to disable.

The only "old" way to achieve this issue (with XI) was to disable the users access to the folder where the files system .TPZ are downloaded.

Thanks for your response and experience.

But then how to avoid people using Filesystem? Authorizations? Do you know how?

Thanks in advance.

You may not be able to stop the export but you most likely will be able to disable importing from file system via authorisations.

I think you can try removing SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR or SAP_XI_CONTENT_ORGANIZER roles... but i'm not sure.

Hi spantaleoni,

The role that you have suggested does not work (Import is still there)

Any other idea?

Best Regards.
