[Former Member]

Hi

I am trying to execute one sales order form in background. I want to implement these scenarios for this. I want to convert the form in to PDF and sent a mail as attachment and at the same i want to download this form in application server. I used GUI_DOWNLOAD FM it's working fine but is there any possibility to download in application serv.

Thanks in advance

Yes its possible to download script to application server. u need to use open dataset instead of gui download

see this code

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/abap/converting%252bscripts%252boutput%252binto%2...

in the end gui downlaod is used in above code instead of it use like this

OPEN DATASET p_file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE  .
  IF  sy-subrc = 0 .
    LOOP AT ittab..
      TRANSFER itab TO p_file . "itab is what convert_otf will give u
    ENDLOOP.
    CLOSE DATASET p_file  .
  ELSE.
    WRITE : / 'Error opening file' .
  ENDIF.
