Documentation

Definition

File format for a temporary file created by the system for processing original application data which has already been archived.

Use

If original application data is already archived in the SAP database, an archive, or a vault, and you want to process it again using this application, the system creates a temporary file with this file format. Otherwise, the file has no file format, and you may not be able to process the file with the application.

Examples

You want to display an archived Winword file with file format DOC.
If you define the file suffix as DOC, the system creates a temporary file and assigns file format DOC to it.
