Batch Path for batch jobs

Within geeneral/adjustment/user configuration/application  there is a field 
where you can enter where you want the batch jobs to be put, so that when the 
execution is run it picks these up. 

A customer within windows version of xal, has created a folder called batch 
within the XAL application folder and placing this as the batch path i.e. 
z:\batch\  where Z is where the xal application is held.  

However when they run a batch job the file is getting saved to the root 
directory i.e. the Z drive  and not in the batch folder. Any ideas why this 
would occurr?  Seems to be ok when run  in dos version.

Hi, Alan,

on my PC, I had no problems sending the batch files to a folder on the 
network. So I can only guess, what might be the reason. I imagine the 
following cases:
- drive mapping is not correct
- the user does not have the right to access the batch path
- the XAL kernel is outdated
If all these possibilities do not apply, I kindly ask you to send a service 
request to the XAL support team

Kind regards
