Command line for general logging via batch file

Profit maintains a log file while running a batch file if you entered this in the command line. Profit only logs errors in this file. You can maintain a simple log file that saves a line before and after running the batch file.

In the following example, you will use a command line to generate a report and save it as a PDF file.

Example:

date /t=%date%

time /t=%time%

ECHO Start report.bat on %date% %time% >> "C:\AFAS_cmd.log"

"C:\Program files (x86)\Profit\AFAS Windows\Kernel\Bin\AFASCMD.EXE" /O"H11_PVS9" /G"Extern" /W"2011!Pwd" /L"C:\AFAS_cmd.log" REPORT /R"EC79689544E07C3D9B6F25965AC5FA9F" /F"C:\Employees.pdf"

ECHO End report.bat on %date% %time% >> "C:\AFAS_cmd.log"

ECHO end %date% %time% report.bat

ECHO

If the command line is successful, Profit will only save lines with the date and time (these are found behind the ECHO statement).

Example:

Start report.bat on Tue 13-09-2011 9:09:59,14

End report.bat on Tue 13-09-2011 9:10:00,66

If the command line fails (for example, because the ID of the report is incorrect), Profit will log this.

Example:

Start report.bat on Tue 13-09-2011 9:16:40,48
