METHOD read_employee_excel.

“—————————————————
” Step 1: Define employee structure and table
“—————————————————
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_employee,
empid TYPE string,
name TYPE string,
department TYPE string,
salary TYPE string,
END OF ty_employee.

DATA lt_employee TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_employee.
DATA ls_employee TYPE ty_employee.

“—————————————————
” Step 2: Load Excel file (binary content)
” Replace file path with your actual file location
“—————————————————

” Get first sheet
