    Are you downloading the file using GUI_DOWNLOAD ?

    If so there is a parameter TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS_EOR = SPACE (set it to space)

    and TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS = 'X' (set is X)

    It may not be possible to append spaces in any of the variable. E.g. if you look at write statement, it does not allow us to write spaces. Instead, you can have an end of file character like '$' which is placed at 101st position. Look at the below code:

    wa_detailed+0(1) = 'suresh'.

    wa_detailed+70(5) = 'welcom'.

    wa_detailed+100(1) = '$'.

    This way you can transfer first 100 characters to the outbound file.

    Let me know if you have any further queries.

    CONSTANTS: C_RECLEN(04) VALUE 100.

    transfer ... length C_RECLEN.
