How to place Outbound Interface file in APPS SERVER?

Question

Hi Guys,
         Actually I'm running the below pl\sql procedure for the OutBound interface file.
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure GE_INV_Out_BAL(Errbuf OUT varchar2,
                                       Retcode ouT varchar2,
            f_id    in number,
            t_id    in varchar2) as
cursor c1 is select
       msi.segment1 item,
    msi.inventory_item_id Itemid,
    msi.description  itemdesc,
    msi.primary_uom_code Uom,
    ood.organization_name name,
    ood.organization_id   id,
    mc . segment1||','||mc.segment2 Category
    from
    mtl_system_items_b           msi,
    org_organization_definitions ood,
    mtl_item_categories          mic,
    mtl_categories               mc
    where
    msi.organization_id       = ood.organization_id
    and msi.inventory_item_id = mic.inventory_item_id
    and msi.organization_id   = mic.organization_id
    and mic.category_id       = mc.category_id
    and msi.purchasing_item_flag = 'Y'
    and msi.organization_id between f_id and t_id;
x_id     utl_file.file_type;
l_count  number(8) default 0;
begin
          x_id:=utl_file.fopen('/u02/oracle/SUPPORT1','invoutdata.dat','W');
           --select * from v$parameter where name like '%utl_file%'
for x1 in c1 loop
l_count:=l_count+1;
utl_file.put_line(x_id,x1.item    ||'-'||
        x1.itemid  ||'-'||
        x1.itemdesc||'-'||
        x1.uom   ||'-'||
        x1.name   ||'-'||
        x1.id   ||'-'||
        x1.category   );
end loop;
utl_file.fclose(x_id);
Fnd_file.Put_line(Fnd_file.output,'No of Records transfered to the data file :'||l_count);
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,' ');
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,'Submitted User name  '||Fnd_Profile.Value('USERNAME'));
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,' ');
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,'Submitted Responsibility name '||Fnd_profile.value('RESP_NAME'));
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,' ');
Fnd_File.Put_line(fnd_File.Output,'Submission Date :'|| SYSDATE);
Exception
WHEN utl_file.invalid_operation THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'invalid operation');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN utl_file.invalid_path THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'invalid path');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN utl_file.invalid_mode THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'invalid mode');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN utl_file.invalid_filehandle THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'invalid filehandle');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN utl_file.read_error THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'read error');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN utl_file.internal_error THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'internal error');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
WHEN OTHERS THEN
  fnd_file.put_line(fnd_File.log,'other error');
  utl_file.fclose_all;
End GE_INV_Out_BAL;
                                 It is working nice.The interface file is going and placed in the given path of the DB server.But the Requirement is the file should be placed in the app server.Is their method to place the file Directly in App server.please convey your suggestions.
