ABAP code to upload XLSX file to SAP using ABAP. The method shown in the blog will work in SAP GUI and Webgui (program launched from Fiori Launchpad). This approach will also work with OData.
Code is based on class CL_FDT_XL_SPREADSHEET which can be instantiated using the file name and excel file in XSTRING variable. This processing of file as XSTRING is particularly useful in case of Fiori Apps, OData CREATE_STREAM method pass uploaded file already in XSTRING which can be simply passed on to class CL_FDT_XL_SPREADSHEET constructor.
After instantiating the class get list of worksheets in the file using IF_FDT_DOC_SPREADSHEET~GET_WORKSHEET_NAMES. Method GET_WORKSHEET_NAMES returns internal table. In most of the case, you would read the first worksheet name and call method IF_FDT_DOC_SPREADSHEET~GET_ITAB_FROM_WORKSHEET with worksheet name to get data in a dynamic internal table. However, if you have data over multiple worksheets then you would have to call method GET_ITAB_FROM_WORKSHEET in the loop for each worksheet.
There are some function modules (TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP) available in SAP which can help you read data from XLS/XLSX file but these are based on Office Integration and requires MS Office installed on your PC. Also, this Office Integration solution (along with a range of other features) is not supported in WebGUI. In other words, these FMs will only work when you are running your program in SAP WebGUI.
I have structured the logic in standalone SE38 program so you can copy-paste and have it ready for testing in your system. Obviously, you would have to adapt the code to use it in your application but you get the idea of how it works.
