Hi,

The Function module GUI_DOWNLOAD is used to download the data into presentation server and Dataset concepts to download the data into Application server. Sometimes we may require to download the data from other system (3rd Party System) to SAP and Vice Versa. In such scenarios, the concept of FTP commands comes into picture.

the various FTP commands are:

HTTP_SCRAMBLE, FTP_CONNECT, FTP_R3_TO_SERVER, FTP_DISCONNECT, RFC_CONNECTION_CLOSE function modules.

FTP_CONNECT : This is used to connect to other system from SAP with the help of Userid & amp; scrambled password & Host string & destination (default 'SAPFTP').

FTP_R3_TO_SERVERThis is used to transfer the internal table data as a file to other system in the character mode.

FTP Connect FM's are used, when you need to send data from R/3 to a remote server using FTP functionality.

In order to test this you have several standard SAP demo programs starting with RSFTP, kindly check it , this would be use full.

search for RSFTP* .
