Hi,

ADS has to be configured to perform those manual steps.

Please check the note 1580196 GTS: Error occurred when uploading file

(unknown file format).

The manual steps related to SFP transaction need to be performed if your are running the form 16 in pdf format.

Since ADS was not configured in our system; we end up using the option of running form 16 in SAP Script.

Changes related to SFP transaction need not be perfored in case you are running the form in SAP Script format as these are pdf specific changes.

Regards,
