from the UBE event rules call a BSFN - Execute External Program, that should do it.....
 
Call this BSFN B34A1030 - Execute External Program

1. Functional Description

1.1 Purpose
This business function will execute a command using the native command interpreter for the platform where business function is mapped to run.

1.2 Setup Notes and Prerequisites
The input command line must be valid for the platform where this business function is run. The business function runs the command line synchonously - it will not return until the command line is done executing. Security and permissions to execute certain commands may be platform-dependant as well.

Also note that this business function cannot detect the status of the command. It can detect if the command appeared to run, but not if the command completed successfully.

2. Technical Specifications

2.4 Processing
Call ANSI function system() with the command line as parameter. If system() returns less than 0, set cErrorCode to '1' and szErrorMessageId to '3143'.
