Hi Steward,

If you want to upload files from presentation server, you can use GUI_UPLOAD in your program and place them on AL11(Application server), and you can download whenever needed using Open Dataset and Close Dataset.

Please let me know if this helps.

I guess you mean upload a file stored in user's laptop. If you want to upload it to OAOR, the same way as a user does it manually:

Read the file from the user's laptop into memory (you can find snippets easily)
Use CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET to write the file (you can find snippets easily)

Hello jandrivay

What exactly do you want to achieve?

Upload a file in a Z* report with relation to an existing SAP document (Sales Order, Invoice, etc)?

Upload a file in a Z* report (without relation to a document) and be able to download it when needed?

Kind regards,
Mateusz

jandrivay Did you search CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET? Do you have issues with those snippets?

Why debugging? I'm telling you to search the web, there are existing snippets to write documents to BDS. Just search CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET.

Hello jandrivay

If you want to just upload/download files from the application server (without attaching them to SAP documents) then have a look at Shiromani's answer. Look for CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES class with GUI_UPLOAD/GUI_DOWNLOAD methods and for the OPEN DATASET ABAP keyword.

Kind regards,
