ABAP System Command

There is need to execute the system command at OS level. You can apply this by using below statement.

CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' field lv_cmd
              ID 'TAB' field lt_result.

There is another more efficient way to use system command by calling function ‘SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM’.

First you need to create system command with t-code:sm69 to use this at a abap program.

For example, let’s exercise with the command of LS which can list the all command list in UNIX system.

T-CODE:SM69, click the create button.
