Use FM "GUI_UPLOAD"

Check the sample code:

upload the xml file

filename = 'C:\so_new.xml' .

call function 'GUI_UPLOAD'

exporting

filename = filename

filetype = 'BIN'

has_field_separator = ' '

header_length = 0

importing

filelength = size

tables

data_tab = xml_tab

exceptions

others = 1.
