Changing of the physical file name of the file after archiving

Hi all,
We are in process of archiving and completed the process successfully and archived to o:\PRODSID\<filename>.
When refresh is happening from Prod to Quality the archived data will come as O:\PRODSID\<filename> and the archived files will not be accessible since quality system is not able to find the path with O:\PRODSID\<filename>.
Is there anyway i can change the physical file name of the archived files to correct path O:\QUALITYSID\<filename>, i need to change only the SID only from PRD to QUALITY.
Thanks,
Subhash.G

Hi Subash,
Do you want change the Physical File name or the Path from PROD to SID.
Path :- in the transaction called FILE, double click on Logical Path Definition , select the Logical File and double click on "Assignment on Physical Path to Logical Path" and you can change FILENAME also here
Thanks,

Dynamic Physical File names on AL11

Hi,
I have the following requirement.
I have almost 25 files to be exported onto AL11 using OpenHub from various infoproviders and I used the "Logical File name" option to do it.
I would like to have the physical file names as " ZINFOPROV_<DATE>_<TIME> " and Infoprovider tech. name should get populated dynamically somehow.
I was looking at the following thread for the same req : Re: Open Hub File name Change
I defined my logical file name definition as
Logical file    Z_SALES
Name            Used for SALES
Physical file   ZINFOPROV_<DATE>_<TIME>
Data format     ASC
Applicat.area   BW
Logical path    Z_SALES
I would like this ZINFOPROV populated dynamically.
Any have any inputs/suggestions.
Regards,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
You have a very good question and also shown the viewer of your post the way forward. Well i got your answer from your question only. Considering <DATE> as one kind of literals, you need a literal to identify the infoprovider as one part of your filename. Now my answer is not direct resolution but it may lead you to your answer. Here are the list of other literals that might be of use to you.....
Extract from the help.......
Physical path name
Platform-specific physical path under which files are stored. It most contain the reserved word <FILENAME> as a placeholder for the file name. IT can also contain further reserved words (see below).
Use
The physical path name is used by the function module FILE_GET_NAME at run time to create a complete platform-specific file name.
Procedure
Specify a path. You can include the following reserved words in pointed brackets. These are replaced with current values at runtime.
Reserved Word    Replacement Text
<OPSYS> Operating system in call
<INSTANCE> R/3 application instance
<SYSID> R/3 application name in SY-SYSID
<DBSYS> Database system in SY-DBSYS
<SAPRL> R/3 release in SY-SAPRL
<HOST> Host name in SY-HOST
<CLIENT> Client in SY-MANDT
<LANGUAGE> Log on language in SY-LANGU

<PARAM_3> External parameter 3
<P=name> Name of a profile parameter (see Report RSPARAM for valid values)
<V=name> Name of a variable (stored in variable table)
<F=name> Return value of a function module Naming convention for this function module: FILENAME_EXIT_name
<Y=name> Return value of a function module Naming convention for this function module: Y_FILENAME_EXIT_name
<Z=name> Return value of a function module Naming convention for this function module: Z_FILENAME_EXIT_name
Examples
Local directory for temporary files under Windows NT: D:\GLOBAL\ARCHIVE\<PARAM_1>\<FILENAME>
Local directory for temporary files under DOS:C:\TMP\<FILENAME>
Local directory for temporary files under UNIX: /usr/<SYSID>/local/tmp/<CLIENT>/<FILENAME>
Dependencies
The function module for the run-time variable <F=name> must meet the following requirements:
Name
The name must begin with "FILENAME_EXIT_".
Parameter
An export parameter with the name "OUTPUT" must exist. No structure may exist for this parameters.
Import parameters are only supported if they have default values.
Table parameters are not supported.

InDesign CS4: File names change to string of numbers

Occasionally, one of our users will save an InDesign CS4 file, only to have the file name change. For example, a file originally named "#kwn25501.bcbsNM.indd" was saved as "#kwn25501.bc157-1223857848."
If the user is not aware that this has happened, things can go horribly, terribly wrong in our production environment. The "numbered" file may be missing key elements, or be somehow be corrupt in some fashion. In one case, this led us to having to reprint a job because the "numbered" file was missing a photo; somehow, that file was used (and perhaps renamed after the fact) to create the final output.
We use Macs running InDesign CS4 6.0.5. Some of our Macs are running Tiger 10.4.11, while others are running Leopard 10.5.8. The problem seems to related to the Leopard machines, although that is not 100 percent certain at this point. All of these Macs are bound to Active Directory and save files to a Windows 2003 server. I know Adobe recommends against working on files over a network, but perhaps there is an explanation for this file renaming aside from network issues.
Any light that can be shed on this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Kevin Stauffer

Check to see if maybe your original filename is the problem.
You may need that particular name for a workflow reason, but some of the symbols in the middle of your filename are generally not a good idea. Especially working off of a server, file names should be ONLY alpha-numeric characters, no symbols, no periods (except for the file type) and only underscores or dashes to separate words, no spaces.
The reason is some of those symbols get picked up as machine language and all sorts of bad can happen as a result.

Saving/exporting issue in Windows 7-file name changes when trying to navigate

I just got Windows 7 on my computer and am running ID CS5. The weirdest problem happens when I try to save as or export a file. The dialog box comes up and normally, I would be able to select a folder I want to navigate to just by typing the folder name, but what is happening is that the first letter goes to a folder, but upon typing the second letter, it starts changing the name of my file.
So for example, I am saving a file ABC.indd and I go to navigate to save it in a folder called Project XYZ. When I type in "P" to get to that folder name, it jumps right to the first folder starting with P. However, upon typing "r" my file name changes from ABC.indd to "r.indd." If I kept typing, it would become "roject XYZ.PDF."
This happens when saving as a file or if I am exporting a PDF. Our entire marketing department or 6 people was recently upgraded from XP to 7 and we all have this problem in ID. This does not happen in Illustrator or Photoshop and it has our IT department baffled. It is driving us crazy though because we make dozens of files a day and now have to manually scroll through long file structures when exporting PDFs, which is so time consuming, not to mention aggravating.
In searching for this problem, I found another poster on a different website who has the same issue, but no one had any suggestions.

Tell whomever is emailing the file to zip it first.

Mapping physical file name to logical file name

Hi All,
Can anybody let me know wht is the procedure to map a logical file name to physical file name. wht is the use of logical file name when there exists physical file name?
Thanx in Advance

As far as creating the Logical path its done through the transaction code file by using options
Steps are:
1. Logical file path definition which is logical file path name.
2. Assignment of physical path to logical path - where we give the physical path to the logical path name defined in the last step.
After creating the Logical path the procedure to attach the file name to the Logical path is as follows:
Use the function Module C13Z_FRONT_END_TO_APPL to upload the file from the front end to the application server.
Source file on front end will be the CSV file path which is to be uploaded to the application server
Target file on application server will be the physical path of the file on the application server where the file is to be uploaded.
Attach the physical path of the file on the application server to the Logical file using transaction code file.
Logical File: The Logical name of the file which will be used by the interfaces to upload the file
Physical file: The name of the physical file on the application server
Logical path: The path of the physical file on the application server where it is stored.
The possible reason for the use of Logical file name could be we can have directories within SAP in which we can have logical files stored. These files can be used by various interfaces. Different Logical paths can be used for different interfaces. the second reson can be to give more user friendly name to the file rather than a long physical name to the file.

Photoshop Elements 3.0 Back-Up - File Name Change

I currently run Photoshop Elements 3.0. When I back-up the catalog from within Photoshop, the file names are changed (i.e 100_2424.JPG to BO00012). All of my Premiere Elements 7 projects point to the original file name. If I ever lost that original JPG file, the back-up file would be recovered, but would not be recognized by Premeiere Elements, and thus not be found. Why does the file name change after back-up? How can I retain the original file name during back-up? Thanks.

Once you have taken the backup, all the files are renamed as you mentioned in the post. Its only when you restore the catalog through File->Restore, the files are restored by the original name.

File name changes when I sync videos

As title says, when ever I load a video into my 3Gs Iphone the file name changes to a numerical one.
How do I keep the original file name?
As it is I can only sync 1 video at a time then rename it before adding another.

Oops, Just realised I put this n the wrong forum. Just to clarify this is prerecorded video files.
