hi

U can store the report in a txt file and in a network drive by using the concept of datasets . i.e for a local system we use downloading function module

Is the Z drive in the application or presentation server ?

make sure the server has write access to the required folder

• for presentation server

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = 'c:\test_xls.xls'

filetype = 'ASC'

write_field_separator = 'X'

TABLES

data_tab = itab.

for the application server, use

data: outfile(120).

OPEN DATASET outfile FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
