Sending an empty file via FTP

[Former Member]

Hi All!

In our project, we have an scenario that picks up a flat file, do the file content conversion and send the result via FTP to another server. The problem occurs when the source file created by SAP is empty. In that case the FTP adapter doesn't take the file and out client would like to do so.

Do anybody know how to pick up an empty file and send it to other server via FTP?

Thanks!

Hi Daniel,

By default, file adapters do not pick 0 KB files. You can check this out in SAP Note : 821267 Qn. 31.It is possible with SP19 though, as Michal points out
