SAP Code Page for UTF-8 and UTF-16 Unicode encoding

SAP has different number to indicate character encoding for UTF-8 and UTF-16. SAP call it code page number. UTF-8 is using number 4110 and UTF-16 is using number 4102.
*Note: 4103, 4104 and 4105 also are Unicode code page, you can see it in table "TCP00".

For example:
If we want to export an Excel file by using "GUI_DOWNLOAD" with encoding "UTF-16", then at the Exporting parameter "CODEPAGE", pass the value "4102" then the file will be export with UTF-16 encoding.

We can find all the code page that supported by SAP in table "TCP00".
