You use the folder scanner to detect new file-based data automatically.
To ensure automatic data detection is running properly, you do the following:
Allocate the appropriate disk space for the volume of incoming data you expect to receive
Configure the file system and the folders to enable the correct file movement as files move through the inbound, process, and archive folders
Check that all the file directories have the appropriate access, modification, and execution privileges (for example, read, copy, rename, and so on)
Configure a data delivery agreement to set how the system should detect and upload new files
Activate data delivery agreements
Only files for active data delivery agreements are detected.
Start the following SAP DSiM jobs in the daemon framework:
