I am creating a scheduled MIG job, which I want to output onto a particular server folder. This doesn't appear to work as I expect and I have noticed that you can perform an LOV lookup and I have some file paths already set.

How can I add a new one to that list? I cant seem to find the screen in IFS to do this?

Yes, if File Location = OnClient, the application will try and write the output file in that exact directory on your client computer (it could be a UNC path or network drive mapping, but it must be available from your pc)

The entries in the LOV are Oracle Directories. You cannot create these from IFS Applications, they must be added by a database administrator. Please note that you can only use an Oracle Directory in your migration job if File Location = OnServer.

Okay thanks - so what if I changed that to ‘OnClient’ - could I then specify an output file not in Oracle?
