This is a simple document which gives step by step method of how to create a logical filename which can be used to generate file in an application server.
Where it can be used: we can use these logical filenames in Open HUBS, APDs.
Step 1: Go to FILE transaction.
First the logical file path needs to be created.
Step 2: The next step follows assignment of the physical path to logical file path created in step 1.
In the above image you can see syntax group which is Key for a group of operating systems with a common syntax for file and
path names.
In the physical path it is mandatory to specify <FILENAME> which is a reserved word as a placeholder for the file name. Without the reserved word it will throw an error
There are many other reserved words available. You can give extension as per the requirement.
Step 3: In the final step you need to create logical file name which will be used in open HUBS or APDs.
- need to specify Logical File which is a platform-independent name for a file to be stored in the file system.
- physical file name created in step 2
- Logical path name created in step 1
the highlighted Logical File is the name which you pass in your Open HUBS or APDs.
