My suggestion is once the billing is created, you can find change document entries in table CDHDR & CDPOS , write a small program to read from this tables of unique billing document numbers and read billing document tables VBRK, VBRP and download to excel in specified interval of time

Change document object name : FAKTBELEG

I don't have much info on workflow side

Hi,.

Your suggestion was considered,... but the problem here was i cannot schedule because the data cannot be uploaded into an excel from SAP in the background mode. Am i correct ?

In background mode you have to only create CSV (comma delimited) file instead of XLS.

Yes,. but the problem is , this data that will be downloaded has to be put into excel , this is because it is been picked from another third party system that is done in VB,. and it has to be an excel. I cannot dowload it into application server and keep the file tab limited..

U can use BO : BUS2081 in which you have method Create .

You can create a very simple workflow which will send a mail with the required details to the destination Inbox.

You can also send attachments required.
