Back Ground Job not Working

Hi,
I have watched all the threads regarding Back Ground job like SE36 & SE37. I have given a back ground job and its not working.
Its an ABAP Program which is creating an OLEDB Connection to MSACCESS and then retrieving and updating database table. The program is working very fine on foreground but when it is given to back ground job then it shows that the program is running, i mean in delay the time is ticking. But at last it is canceled by the system.
What's the thing i am missing or what should i do here? I have already set my program at high priority.
Thanks.

Hi Atish,
Are you sure that we cannot run in background? Can you please explain me why it cant be done.
Thanks,
Inder.

  • Scheduled back ground job not finishing

    hie gurus, i need your help with back ground scheduling , i have created a background schedule to run my program after every 30min .  in the job overview it shows my job released and active but its not finishing processing . the program being run picks up data from an external data base and then inserting via BDC call transaction. i have tried with a different program that inserts data into a database table and its executing and finishing well in the back ground. What could be the problem ? and how can i debug a back ground job ??

    Daniel,
    To start, BDCs are very out-dated.  I would look for a BAPI if you are calling std SAP functionality.
    Also - direct updates into std SAP tables is a HUGE "no-no"... I hope that you are updating custom tables only.
    Pass that - to debug a b/g job---> 
    1) Set a breakpoint in your program
    2) select the job in SM37
    3) enter JDBG into the SAP fastpath of the SM37 screen and press ENTER
    This will navigate you into a b/g debug - you can then press the debugger buttons to move to your breakpoint.
    Hope that helps.

  • Back Ground Job not showing in SM50,

    Hi Friends,
    I am running XK99 to Mass update Vendor details in Back ground, I am getting some error while running the job in back ground, I would like debugg the issue.
    But in SM50  Iam not able to see the job I sechduled using program MASSBACK or transaction XK99.
    Please let me know, what could be the problem.
    Thanks,
    Veerendra.

    Hi,
    Try this - goto SM37 select the background job and enter JDBG in the command field (similar to entering /h to debug).
    Cheers.

  • Back ground job not finshing

    hie gurus , i need help . i created a background job to run my program which creates material via bdc call transaction.
    the job runs every 30min , how ever its not finishing processing and the program is not creating material and restarts after 30 min again so i now have a list of active jobs that are not finishing in the job overview. how ever if i run through debugger using JDBG the program runs through with no errors. any 1 have an idea as to what the problem could be.

    Hi Daniel,
    As your job is a periodic job, the selection screen probably doesn't contain the data to process, so your jdbg test is not the same as the real one. So I suggest you to save the BDC data each time, so that to be able to reprocess manually the buggy ones. Before the CALL TRANSACTION, save data into a cluster database table for example (EXPORT TO DATABASE), delete it if the CALL TRANSACTION is successful. When one job is taking too much time, get the saved BDC data, and process it again.
    You may also have a look to SM50 transaction to see if the system is performing a long SQL query.

  • RMCB0300 is not working in back ground job

    Hi
      I call t-code MC.9 program (RMCB0300) in back ground by using sample code given below.
      SUBMIT RMCB0300 WITH SL_WERKS-LOW = u2018ABCDu2019
                      WITH SL_LGORT = 'W001'
                      EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN.
      CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
        TABLES
          LISTOBJECT = LISTOBJECT
        EXCEPTIONS
          NOT_FOUND  = 4
          OTHERS     = 8.
      IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
      ENDIF.
    The 'LIST_FROM_MEMORYu2019 is getting correct output in four ground but
      not in back ground job.
    Kindly help.

    When you use 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY' it basically imports the memory id '%_LIST'.
    When running MC.9 in foreground the memory id '%_LIST' is saved (you can check in debugging) but in background the memory id is not saved
    This is why you are not getting the data correctly in background.

  • Error while activating ODS is not caught in the back ground job..

    Hi All,
    We have a back ground job to load data to ODS and to activate it..If there is any error while loading or activating the data, back ground job is going into loop instead of cancelling the job..As the job is going into loop we are unable to trace the error unless we cancel the job manually and checking it..We have switched off displaying any messages while doing the back ground job...also we can not set any time limit for the job as it always depends on the volume of the data.
    My requirement is , back ground job must get cancelled if there is any error while loading the ODS..Can anybody suggest any idea on this..
    Thanks for reading.
    Umamaheswar kumar

    Hi Uma,
    A few hints for running and schedule and monitoring process chains:
    - always schedule the process chain in tcode RSPC
    - check the log in RSPC for error messages, or
    - check BW monitor for the ODS concerned (tcode RSMO, tab Details)
    if anything is not working fine, the status of the corresponding load will show you the errors, warnings ...
    either in RSPC - log or RSMO.
    hope it helps.

  • Back ground job work in MM

    CAN ANY BODY TELL ME WHAT IS A BACK GROUND JOB WORK IN MM pls explain it with good example tell me 1 or  2back ground job work relevent transactions
    good answer will be awarded
    kiran

    Hi,
    Background job means system will automatically perform some transaction / actions at perdetermined time based on the variants selected for that program.
    Ex 1: You want to see the list of PO or PR or Production order created for a day, you can create a ABAP program and give the creation date in selction screen.
    Provide the Plant or doc type, file path to download the report etc..
    and save the variant.
    You can set this program to run during mid night( 11.00 p.m) with the sysytem date (crrent date).
    So system will run this program and extract the report in Application server level as per the file location given in the program selection screen.
    Ex 2:
    MRP program
    Ex 3.
    Auto PO creation program
    Thanks,

  • Back ground job - report, is scheduled 49 hrs ago, still ACTIVE??

    Hi Experts,
    Pls. clarify one of my simple doubt that, Weather a report(which has only one SELECT statement, with key in WHERE clause) wuld take 49 hours to execute? bcoz, I scheduled a back ground job for my_report, 49 hours ago, its still ACTIVE, OR does it went to infinitive loop?
    thanq

    Hi
    no one select query won't take that mucj of time
    may be that program went in infinite loop
    please check with that

    <b>below is the best way to write a select query</b>
    Ways of Performance Tuning
    1.     Selection Criteria
    2.     Select Statements
    •     Select Queries
    •     SQL Interface
    •     Aggregate Functions
    •     For all Entries
    Select Over more than one Internal table
    Selection Criteria
    1.     Restrict the data to the selection criteria itself, rather than filtering it out using the ABAP code using CHECK statement. 
    2.     Select with selection list.
    Points # 1/2
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK INTO SBOOK_WA.
      CHECK: SBOOK_WA-CARRID = 'LH' AND
             SBOOK_WA-CONNID = '0400'.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code can be much more optimized by the code written below which avoids CHECK, selects with selection list
    SELECT  CARRID CONNID FLDATE BOOKID FROM SBOOK INTO TABLE T_SBOOK
      WHERE SBOOK_WA-CARRID = 'LH' AND
                  SBOOK_WA-CONNID = '0400'.
    Select Statements   Select Queries
    1.     Avoid nested selects
    2.     Select all the records in a single shot using into table clause of select statement rather than to use Append statements.
    3.     When a base table has multiple indices, the where clause should be in the order of the index, either a primary or a secondary index.
    4.     For testing existence , use Select.. Up to 1 rows statement instead of a Select-Endselect-loop with an Exit. 
    5.     Use Select Single if all primary key fields are supplied in the Where condition .
    Point # 1
    SELECT * FROM EKKO INTO EKKO_WA.
      SELECT * FROM EKAN INTO EKAN_WA
          WHERE EBELN = EKKO_WA-EBELN.
      ENDSELECT.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code can be much more optimized by the code written below.
    SELECT PF1 PF2 FF3 FF4 INTO TABLE ITAB
        FROM EKKO AS P INNER JOIN EKAN AS F
          ON PEBELN = FEBELN.
    Note: A simple SELECT loop is a single database access whose result is passed to the ABAP program line by line. Nested SELECT loops mean that the number of accesses in the inner loop is multiplied by the number of accesses in the outer loop. One should therefore use nested SELECT loops  only if the selection in the outer loop contains very few lines or the outer loop is a SELECT SINGLE statement.
    Point # 2
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK INTO SBOOK_WA.
      CHECK: SBOOK_WA-CARRID = 'LH' AND
             SBOOK_WA-CONNID = '0400'.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code can be much more optimized by the code written below which avoids CHECK, selects with selection list and puts the data in one shot using into table
    SELECT  CARRID CONNID FLDATE BOOKID FROM SBOOK INTO TABLE T_SBOOK
      WHERE SBOOK_WA-CARRID = 'LH' AND
                  SBOOK_WA-CONNID = '0400'.
    Point # 3
    To choose an index, the optimizer checks the field names specified in the where clause and then uses an index that has the same order of the fields . In certain scenarios, it is advisable to check whether a new index can speed up the performance of a program. This will come handy in programs that access data from the finance tables.
    Point # 4
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK INTO SBOOK_WA
      UP TO 1 ROWS
      WHERE CARRID = 'LH'.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code is more optimized as compared to the code mentioned below for testing existence of a record.
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK INTO SBOOK_WA
        WHERE CARRID = 'LH'.
      EXIT.
    ENDSELECT.
    Point # 5
    If all primary key fields are supplied in the Where condition you can even use Select Single.
    Select Single requires one communication with the database system, whereas Select-Endselect needs two.
    Select Statements           contd..  SQL Interface
    1.     Use column updates instead of single-row updates
    to update your database tables.
    2.     For all frequently used Select statements, try to use an index.
    3.     Using buffered tables improves the performance considerably.
    Point # 1
    SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT INTO SFLIGHT_WA.
      SFLIGHT_WA-SEATSOCC =
        SFLIGHT_WA-SEATSOCC - 1.
      UPDATE SFLIGHT FROM SFLIGHT_WA.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above mentioned code can be more optimized by using the following code
    UPDATE SFLIGHT
           SET SEATSOCC = SEATSOCC - 1.
    Point # 2
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK CLIENT SPECIFIED INTO SBOOK_WA
      WHERE CARRID = 'LH'
        AND CONNID = '0400'.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above mentioned code can be more optimized by using the following code
    SELECT * FROM SBOOK CLIENT SPECIFIED INTO SBOOK_WA
      WHERE MANDT IN ( SELECT MANDT FROM T000 )
        AND CARRID = 'LH'
        AND CONNID = '0400'.
    ENDSELECT.
    Point # 3
    Bypassing the buffer increases the network considerably
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM T100 INTO T100_WA
      BYPASSING BUFFER
      WHERE     SPRSL = 'D'
            AND ARBGB = '00'
            AND MSGNR = '999'.
    The above mentioned code can be more optimized by using the following code
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM T100  INTO T100_WA
      WHERE     SPRSL = 'D'
            AND ARBGB = '00'
            AND MSGNR = '999'.
    Select Statements       contd…           Aggregate Functions
    •     If you want to find the maximum, minimum, sum and average value or the count of a database column, use a select list with aggregate functions instead of computing the aggregates yourself.
    Some of the Aggregate functions allowed in SAP are  MAX, MIN, AVG, SUM, COUNT, COUNT( * )
    Consider the following extract.
                Maxno = 0.
                Select * from zflight where airln = ‘LF’ and cntry = ‘IN’.
                 Check zflight-fligh > maxno.
                 Maxno = zflight-fligh.
                Endselect.
    The  above mentioned code can be much more optimized by using the following code.
    Select max( fligh ) from zflight into maxno where airln = ‘LF’ and cntry = ‘IN’.
    Select Statements    contd…For All Entries
    •     The for all entries creates a where clause, where all the entries in the driver table are combined with OR. If the number of entries in the driver table is larger than rsdb/max_blocking_factor, several similar SQL statements are executed to limit the length of the WHERE clause.
         The plus
    •     Large amount of data
    •     Mixing processing and reading of data
    •     Fast internal reprocessing of data
    •     Fast
         The Minus
    •     Difficult to program/understand
    •     Memory could be critical (use FREE or PACKAGE size)
    Points to be must considered FOR ALL ENTRIES
    •     Check that data is present in the driver table
    •     Sorting the driver table
    •     Removing duplicates from the driver table
    Consider the following piece of extract
    Loop at int_cntry.
           Select single * from zfligh into int_fligh
    where cntry = int_cntry-cntry.
    Append int_fligh.
    Endloop.
    The above mentioned can be more optimized by using the following code.
    Sort int_cntry by cntry.
    Delete adjacent duplicates from int_cntry.
    If NOT int_cntry[] is INITIAL.
                Select * from zfligh appending table int_fligh
                For all entries in int_cntry
                Where cntry = int_cntry-cntry.
    Endif.
    Select Statements    contd…  Select Over more than one Internal table
    1.     Its better to use a views instead of nested Select statements.
    2.     To read data from several logically connected tables use a join instead of nested Select statements. Joins are preferred only if all the primary key are available in WHERE clause for the tables that are joined. If the primary keys are not provided in join the Joining of tables itself takes time.
    3.     Instead of using nested Select loops it is often better to use subqueries.
    Point # 1
    SELECT * FROM DD01L INTO DD01L_WA
      WHERE DOMNAME LIKE 'CHAR%'
            AND AS4LOCAL = 'A'.
      SELECT SINGLE * FROM DD01T INTO DD01T_WA
        WHERE   DOMNAME    = DD01L_WA-DOMNAME
            AND AS4LOCAL   = 'A'
            AND AS4VERS    = DD01L_WA-AS4VERS
            AND DDLANGUAGE = SY-LANGU.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code can be more optimized by extracting all the data from view DD01V_WA
    SELECT * FROM DD01V INTO  DD01V_WA
      WHERE DOMNAME LIKE 'CHAR%'
            AND DDLANGUAGE = SY-LANGU.
    ENDSELECT
    Point # 2
    SELECT * FROM EKKO INTO EKKO_WA.
      SELECT * FROM EKAN INTO EKAN_WA
          WHERE EBELN = EKKO_WA-EBELN.
      ENDSELECT.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above code can be much more optimized by the code written below.
    SELECT PF1 PF2 FF3 FF4 INTO TABLE ITAB
        FROM EKKO AS P INNER JOIN EKAN AS F
          ON PEBELN = FEBELN.
    Point # 3
    SELECT * FROM SPFLI
      INTO TABLE T_SPFLI
      WHERE CITYFROM = 'FRANKFURT'
        AND CITYTO = 'NEW YORK'.
    SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT AS F
        INTO SFLIGHT_WA
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN T_SPFLI
        WHERE SEATSOCC < F~SEATSMAX
          AND CARRID = T_SPFLI-CARRID
          AND CONNID = T_SPFLI-CONNID
          AND FLDATE BETWEEN '19990101' AND '19990331'.
    ENDSELECT.
    The above mentioned code can be even more optimized by using subqueries instead of for all entries.
    SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT AS F INTO SFLIGHT_WA
        WHERE SEATSOCC < F~SEATSMAX
          AND EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM SPFLI
                         WHERE CARRID = F~CARRID
                           AND CONNID = F~CONNID
                           AND CITYFROM = 'FRANKFURT'
                           AND CITYTO = 'NEW YORK' )
          AND FLDATE BETWEEN '19990101' AND '19990331'.
    ENDSELECT.
    1.     Table operations should be done using explicit work areas rather than via header lines.
    2.     Always try to use binary search instead of linear search. But don’t forget to sort your internal table before that.
    3.     A dynamic key access is slower than a static one, since the key specification must be evaluated at runtime.
    4.     A binary search using secondary index takes considerably less time.
    5.     LOOP ... WHERE is faster than LOOP/CHECK because LOOP ... WHERE evaluates the specified condition internally.
    6.     Modifying selected components using “ MODIFY itab …TRANSPORTING f1 f2.. “ accelerates the task of updating  a line of an internal table.
    Point # 2
    READ TABLE ITAB INTO WA WITH KEY K = 'X‘ BINARY SEARCH.
    IS MUCH FASTER THAN USING
    READ TABLE ITAB INTO WA WITH KEY K = 'X'.
    If TAB has n entries, linear search runs in O( n ) time, whereas binary search takes only O( log2( n ) ).
    Point # 3
    READ TABLE ITAB INTO WA WITH KEY K = 'X'. IS FASTER THAN USING
    READ TABLE ITAB INTO WA WITH KEY (NAME) = 'X'.
    Point # 5
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA WHERE K = 'X'.
    ENDLOOP.
    The above code is much faster than using
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA.
      CHECK WA-K = 'X'.
    ENDLOOP.
    Point # 6
    WA-DATE = SY-DATUM.
    MODIFY ITAB FROM WA INDEX 1 TRANSPORTING DATE.
    The above code is more optimized as compared to
    WA-DATE = SY-DATUM.
    MODIFY ITAB FROM WA INDEX 1.
    7.     Accessing the table entries directly in a "LOOP ... ASSIGNING ..." accelerates the task of updating a set of lines of an internal table considerably
    8.    If collect semantics is required, it is always better to use to COLLECT rather than READ BINARY and then ADD.
    9.    "APPEND LINES OF itab1 TO itab2" accelerates the task of appending a table to another table considerably as compared to “ LOOP-APPEND-ENDLOOP.”
    10.   “DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES“ accelerates the task of deleting duplicate entries considerably as compared to “ READ-LOOP-DELETE-ENDLOOP”.
    11.   "DELETE itab FROM ... TO ..." accelerates the task of deleting a sequence of lines considerably as compared to “  DO -DELETE-ENDDO”.
    Point # 7
    Modifying selected components only makes the program faster as compared to Modifying all lines completely.
    e.g,
    LOOP AT ITAB ASSIGNING <WA>.
      I = SY-TABIX MOD 2.
      IF I = 0.
        <WA>-FLAG = 'X'.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    The above code works faster as compared to
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA.
      I = SY-TABIX MOD 2.
      IF I = 0.
        WA-FLAG = 'X'.
        MODIFY ITAB FROM WA.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    Point # 8
    LOOP AT ITAB1 INTO WA1.
      READ TABLE ITAB2 INTO WA2 WITH KEY K = WA1-K BINARY SEARCH.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
        ADD: WA1-VAL1 TO WA2-VAL1,
             WA1-VAL2 TO WA2-VAL2.
        MODIFY ITAB2 FROM WA2 INDEX SY-TABIX TRANSPORTING VAL1 VAL2.
      ELSE.
        INSERT WA1 INTO ITAB2 INDEX SY-TABIX.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    The above code uses BINARY SEARCH for collect semantics. READ BINARY runs in O( log2(n) ) time. The above piece of code can be more optimized by
    LOOP AT ITAB1 INTO WA.
      COLLECT WA INTO ITAB2.
    ENDLOOP.
    SORT ITAB2 BY K.
    COLLECT, however, uses a hash algorithm and is therefore independent
    of the number of entries (i.e. O(1)) .
    Point # 9
    APPEND LINES OF ITAB1 TO ITAB2.
    This is more optimized as compared to
    LOOP AT ITAB1 INTO WA.
      APPEND WA TO ITAB2.
    ENDLOOP.
    Point # 10
    DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM ITAB COMPARING K.
    This is much more optimized as compared to
    READ TABLE ITAB INDEX 1 INTO PREV_LINE.
    LOOP AT ITAB FROM 2 INTO WA.
      IF WA = PREV_LINE.
        DELETE ITAB.
      ELSE.
        PREV_LINE = WA.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    Point # 11
    DELETE ITAB FROM 450 TO 550.
    This is much more optimized as compared to
    DO 101 TIMES.
      DELETE ITAB INDEX 450.
    ENDDO.
    12.   Copying internal tables by using “ITAB2[ ] = ITAB1[ ]” as compared to “LOOP-APPEND-ENDLOOP”.
    13.   Specify the sort key as restrictively as possible to run the program faster.
    Point # 12
    ITAB2[] = ITAB1[].
    This is much more optimized as compared to
    REFRESH ITAB2.
    LOOP AT ITAB1 INTO WA.
      APPEND WA TO ITAB2.
    ENDLOOP.
    Point # 13
    “SORT ITAB BY K.” makes the program runs faster as compared to “SORT ITAB.”
    Internal Tables         contd…
    Hashed and Sorted tables
    1.     For single read access hashed tables are more optimized as compared to sorted tables.
    2.      For partial sequential access sorted tables are more optimized as compared to hashed tables
    Hashed And Sorted Tables
    Point # 1
    Consider the following example where HTAB is a hashed table and STAB is a sorted table
    DO 250 TIMES.
      N = 4 * SY-INDEX.
      READ TABLE HTAB INTO WA WITH TABLE KEY K = N.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
      ENDIF.
    ENDDO.
    This runs faster for single read access as compared to the following same code for sorted table
    DO 250 TIMES.
      N = 4 * SY-INDEX.
      READ TABLE STAB INTO WA WITH TABLE KEY K = N.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
      ENDIF.
    ENDDO.
    Point # 2
    Similarly for Partial Sequential access the STAB runs faster as compared to HTAB
    LOOP AT STAB INTO WA WHERE K = SUBKEY.
    ENDLOOP.
    This runs faster as compared to
    LOOP AT HTAB INTO WA WHERE K = SUBKEY.
    ENDLOOP.

  • Back ground job bdc session

    Hai All,
    Can any one tell me how to catch the erros in BDC session method back ground job.
    I need to update Sales orders in BDC session, back ground job.
    Finally at the end I need to generate a report which contains all the succesfull updates & errors.
    I tried this using call transaction with messtab and is working fine.
    Please tell me how to do this in Session method.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Bhaskar.

    Hi Bhaskar,
    In Session method what you need to do is before processing of hte BDC first you need to check all the data. And if any error found then populate it into the internal table. And that internal table you need to display it on the output......
    I think this is the solution but I am not to sure........

  • Define back ground job for Maintenance Order Settlement through KO8G

    Hi Experts,
    I need to define back ground job for Maintenance Order Settlement through KO8G transaction code.
    Here are the requirements
    1. The job should run on weekly basis automatically.
    2. The settlement period and posting period should be taken care by the job dynamically. i.e. if the job runs in July, the job should pick up Settlement period and posting period as 7 automatically.
    Kindly let me know the steps to define the back ground job as per above requirement.
    Sanjeev

    To run the KO8G  each week, the a RECURRING job has to be created.  At my job, Basis/Ops department would create and schedule the job.
    To have the posting periods, dates etc dynamically determined at the time the job runs:
    Create the variant and save.
    In 5.0, KO8G does not save a variant, therefore, go to SE38 and create a variant for program: RKO7KO8G
    When you go to the ATTRIBUTES screen, to add a name and description, you will see a list of all the fields that are part of the selection criteria. 
    For an example, I frequently use the Posting Date. To the right of the screen is a field called Selection Variable, click on the drop box and select D - Dynamic Date Calculation.
    Go to field NAme of variable, click on drop box and select the variable you want.
    Each field has its own list of selection variable and name of variable depending on how it works in the progra.
    If you look at Posting period you will see:
         T: Table Variable from TVARVC
         B: User-defined variables
    I do not know about User defined variables, but for TVARC there is thread that leads to a "how to" blog
    [How create a variable in the TVARVC that calculate the last week]
    do some more searching and you should find more answers
    Good luck
