SAP E-Book

In this IMG activity you define logical path and file names.

Archive files are stored in the file system under a physical path and file name that is derived from a user-definable logical path and file name. The definition can be divided into the following steps:

  1. Definition of the logical path name
  2. Definition of the logical file name
  3. Assignment of the logical file name to the archiving object

If you intend to transfer the archive files to a storage system using the Content Management Service, you must ensure that this storage system has access to the archive files.

In the case of HSM systems, you must make sure that the archive files can be written to the file system of the HSM system.

Defining Logical Path Names

  1. Select an existing path name, such as ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH, or choose New Entries to enter a new path name. This must be as descriptive as possible.
  2. In the Logical File Path Definition dialog structure, double-click on the Assignment of Physical Path and Logical Paths substructure. Double-click to select a syntax group or create a new syntax group.
  3. Assign a physical path name to the logical path name.
You can press the F1 key in the Physical Path field to obtain a list of all parameters that can be selected.

Defining Logical File Names

  1. Select an existing file name, such as ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE, or choose New Entries to enter a new file name. This must be as descriptive as possible.
  2. Double-click on the dialog structure Logical File Name Definition, Cross-Client.
    You can access the screen change view "Logical File Name Definition, Cross-Client": Overview.
  3. Maintain the Physical File and Logical Path fields.

In the Physical File field, enter the physical file name you require. You can see an overview of the possible parameters in the F1 help.

The following parameters are of particular interest here:

  • PARAM_1: Two-character application abbreviation (such as HR; CO, MM) for classifying the archive files in the system. The value is determined from the definition of the relevant archiving object at runtime.
  • PARAM_2: Single-character alphanumeric code (0-9, A-Z). If, when a new archive file is created, an existing file with an identical physical name would result in a conflict, the ADK increases this value. This must therefore always be a part of the physical name.
  • PARAM_3: This parameter is filled with the name of the archiving object at runtime. In archive management, this enables you to check the file contents or to store the archive files by archiving object.

In the Logical Path field, you assign the logical path name defined previously to the current logical file name. You can assign a logical path name to several logical file names.
