I know that OLE works only on SAP GUI for Windows and has several limitations. I would like to learn the recommended approaches for reading and generating Excel files in modern SAP systems.

Please help with the following points:

  • What are the recommended ways to read and write Excel (.xlsx) files in SAP ABAP?
  • What is the difference between GUI_UPLOAD, TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP, CL_FDT_XL_SPREADSHEET, and ABAP2XLSX?
  • When should each approach be used?
  • How can we read multiple worksheets from an Excel workbook?
  • How can we convert Excel data into ABAP internal tables?
  • How can we generate formatted Excel files with headers, colors, formulas, and multiple sheets?
  • How can we validate uploaded data before saving it to the database?
  • How can we handle empty cells, date formats, numeric values, and special characters?
  • What are the most common errors during Excel upload or download, and how can they be resolved?
  • Can someone share a complete working ABAP example for reading and generating Excel files?

A step-by-step guide with complete ABAP code, best practices, and practical examples would be very helpful.
