Need to use RTOPCB, RFROMPCB once set up could be used on scheduler.

There is a utility on the PC that can upoad/download in batch, once you have created the transfer specs. Its called rxferpcb.exe
I have avoided doing it this way because I find it easier to just send the file from the iSeries to a windows share and let the PC pick it up from there. The COPYTOIMPF or the 3rd party CVTPFXLS programs can do this for you.

I agree with GrayBeard52.
automate the process on the AS400 to send the output using FTP or dump the file out on a shared drive.
Automated client access file transfers just byte you down the road…because it will fail.
