In the code shown above, you are not using subprocess.run() but subprocess.Popen(), also the File_transfer() function is never called. Also « it doesn't work » is not a usable error report. Describe what happens when you run the code, and all output.

Also should get syntax error on line 1 as missing :.
Import statement should be on top of code.
Here a working test for upload with scp from Windows to our Linux server.
import subprocess
import os

def file_transfer(fpath, tbl):
    fname = os.path.join(fpath, tbl)
    landing_path = "[email protected]:/var/www/python-forum.io/images/tips"
    subprocess.run(['scp', '-P', '2xxx', fname, landing_path])

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # On server from Win to Linux Path is like this
    # G:\1_bilder\logo\speed.png
    fpath = "/G/1_bilder/logo/"
    tbl = "speed.png"
    file_transfer(fpath, tbl)
