4. Write logic to convert the excel file to SAP file format?? why we need conversion???
Usually, while we are getting the file in excel format through the function module, the table is in the
format of row, column and value.
So we need to convert them in internal table format. for that below coding is used:

Sort ta_excel by row col.

Clear wa_excel.
Clear wa_flatfile.
Loop at ta_excel into wa_excel.
Move wa_excel-col to v_index.
Assign component v_index of structure wa_flatfile to <fs>.
If sy-subrc = 0.
Move wa_excel-value to <fs>.
Endif.
At end of row.
Append wa_flatfile to ta_flatfile.
Clear wa_flatfile.
Endat.
