You can use FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

Hi Santhosh,

Have you passed the document size correctly? I had used as follows:

CLEAR WA_PACKING_LIST.

WA_PACKING_LIST-TRANSF_BIN   = 'X'.

WA_PACKING_LIST-HEAD_START  = 0.

WA_PACKING_LIST-HEAD_NUM     = 1.

WA_PACKING_LIST-BODY_START  = 1.

DESCRIBE TABLE GT_ATTACH LINES WA_PACKING_LIST-BODY_NUM.

WA_PACKING_LIST-DOC_TYPE      = 'XLS'.

WA_PACKING_LIST-OBJ_DESCR    = ' '.

WA_PACKING_LIST-OBJ_NAME      = 'AAA'.

WA_PACKING_LIST-DOC_SIZE        = WA_PACKING_LIST-BODY_NUM * 255.

APPEND WA_PACKING_LIST TO LT_PACKING_LIST.

Try this way.

Hi,

Please see if you can use cl_bcs (SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 is older than me..... )

Is the file a real XLS file or text file ?

If it is CSV (Create the file using the rules http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values ) just use extension csv .

If it is tab seperator it is type txt .

Excel know how to deal with those.

sample code to use cl_bcs: see Y_R_EITAN_TEST_10_04.txt

Dear Team,

First of all many thanks for the Quickie!

Instead of passing , OBJPACK-OBJ_NAME   = 'Permit Exception List'(Note:in SOST it is showing excel like icon.), if i pass

OBJPACK-OBJ_NAME   = 'Permit Exception List.XLS' It is working perfectly.

I am not getting why i need to pass obj_name with extension where as i am already passing

OBJPACK-DOC_TYPE   = 'XLS'.
