Best way to create Microsoft Word docx from ABAP.
Maybe, this video instruction explain better than me.
Watch in 1080p.
Installation: Install package via ABAPGIT https://docs.abapgit.org/guide-install.html
For example, the following document should be created:
At first toggle developer toolbar. File -> Options -> Customize ribbon
Go to developer tab, turn on “design mode”.
Select text that will be replaced.
Make tag.
Click properties.
Enter tag name.
Repeat for all variable. For repeated rows or text fragment - select row or text fragment, make repeated control.
To enter properties of repeated control place cursor in the begin or end control.
Tag all variables and repeated part. Save document. Go to transaction smw0 Select Binary data, enter.
Object name zdocx_example
Go to se38. Program ZDOCX_GET_TYPES. Navigate to your template.
Run. Program generate data types, based on your document structure.
Copy to your program. Define variable.
Data
: gs_templ_data TYPE t_data
.
Fill structure with your data. Then get document.
zcl_docx3=>get_document(
iv_w3objid = 'ZDOCX_EXAMLE' " name of our template
* iv_template = '' " you can feed template as xstring instead of load from smw0
* iv_folder = 'report' " in folder by default 'report'
* iv_path = '' " IF iv_path IS INITIAL save on desctop or sap_tmp folder
* iv_file_name = 'report.docx' " file name by default
* iv_no_execute = '' " if filled -- just get document no run office
* iv_protect = '' " if filled protect document from editing, but not protect from sequence
" ctrl+a, ctrl+c, ctrl+n, ctrl+v, edit
iv_data = gs_templ_data " root of our data, obligatory
* iv_no_save = '' " just get binary data not save on disk
).
