Can we mention specific time in present perfect tense?

"i have written the letter on last Wednesday,
i have eaten burger in today morning. "
are these sentence grammatically correct?
can we mention a specific time in present perfect tense (like on Wednesday or in today noon)
is that correct ?
someone says you can't mention a "specific time, when the action took place " in present perfect tense then you should use simple past tense like ""i wrote the letter on last Wednesday". .
i am really confused . . .
help me please. . .
thanks. .
