trigger an event from an external program

Here's how you can trigger an event from an external program.

Create the event in SM62 (i.e. DTEST_EVENT)
Create a job to run after event SM36(i.e. DTEST_JOB)
Create a program on SAP server (i.e. d:\Raise_DTEST.cmd)
Run the program.

The magic command in the program is:

sapevt -t name= nr=
(i.e. sapevt DTEST_EVENT -t name=DEV nr=00 )

EVENTID is the name of the SAP defined event to raise
-t will create a trace file

the program must have access to \\\sapmnt\\SYS\exe\run
