Background Job pass value
Hi, I am calling a Background job in my program. I am using JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT and JOB_CLOSE FM to start a job. My need is to pass a value to the job program(job program doesnt have any selection screen values). Is their any way without creating variants each time to pass value to it.
Please advice.....
Hello,
You can first use JOB_OPEN which returns job number. Then build ranges or parameters to use SUBMIT to call the program.
Eg: SUBMIT RM06BB20 AND RETURN
WITH S_EKGRP IN R_EKGRP
WITH S_EKORG IN R_EKORG
WITH S_FLIEF IN R_FLIEF
WITH S_KONNR IN R_KONNR
USER sy-uname VIA JOB w_jobname
NUMBER w_job_number.
Now use JOB_CLOSE.
Thanks,
Venu

DP background job version value shows *to{q}ZsmfF*
Hi,
I am using DP background jobs in Mass processing. The Version field in the mass processing job displays value as "toZsmfF".
I tried to change the version to 700 in transaction SAPAPO/MC8D. But the version field is disabled.
I also tried after removing the DP background job from all the process chains where ever it was used. After that also the version field, planning book,data view are not active to change (greyed -unable to change). How can change the version value in the DP background jobs.
Thanks and regards
MurugesanThis is becasue the DP job executed without initializing the planning area for the version. Created new job with differenet name and assigned with version.

Pass parameter to background job from report
Hi All,
I have following requirement.
I am executing a Report. At end of report I am executing an event.
On the bases of event a background job runs.
Problem is that, I want to pass one field data from report to background job.
I already tested SET PARAMETER/GET PARAMETER is not working.
Is there any way any one can suggest, without using Tables.
RegardsHi,
If you submit via job it will not be executing the program ..After SUBMIT statement the control will come to the program immediately..
Check this example..
DATA: p_jobcnt LIKE tbtcjob-jobcount,
l_release(1) TYPE c.
Open the job
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
jobname = 'ZMY_OBJ'
IMPORTING
jobcount = p_jobcnt
EXCEPTIONS
cant_create_job = 1
invalid_job_data = 2
jobname_missing = 3
OTHERS = 4.
Submit the job.
SUBMIT ztest_program VIA JOB 'ZMY_OBJ' NUMBER p_jobcnt
TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
WITH destination = 'LOCL'
WITH immediately = space
WITH keep_in_spool = 'X' AND RETURN.
Close the job.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
EXPORTING
jobcount = p_jobcnt
jobname = 'ZMY_OBJ'
strtimmed = 'X'
prdmins = 15
IMPORTING

Hi,
I'm looking for ideas.
We have an inbound process for special messages transfered from XI system via asynchrounous call. Messages are identified by a GUID.
The inbound process will save the messages in a database table and create background jobs for processing big messages while small messages are processed directly.
To avoid any interference, we want to lock messages as long as they are processed. For this we have a lock object and the Enqueue/dequeue modules.
Now my question is: How can I pass a lock to the background job (created by SUBMIT VIA JOB) and have it released there after processing is done. The Job will run in a new LUW.
And then, if any error in background (or online) processing occurs, how to make sure all existing locks are released?
Thanks for some good ideas on how to proceed.
Regards,
Clemensresolved - we won't do it. We'll create some kind of queue: A fully-buffered database table where we put the lock entries and remoce them when it's time to do so. This way we can integrate an activity monitor watching the objects being processed.
Thanks for reading

Passing values to global variables while running job via management console
Hi All,
I have a requirement, where I have to use HANA view with input parameters as source. I am doing the same by placing the HANA query for view with input parameters, in SQL transform and assigning values to placeholders using global variables. This is working fine at the designer level.
But where I am stuck is, it possible to pass values to global variables while running job in Management console or in a third party scheduler. Should I do any changes in the batch job to achieve the same ?
Please help me with the same and also let me know whether my approach of using Global variables to assign values to input parameter of HANA view is right?
Thanks,
DeepaSelect Batch > Batch Job Configuration > Add Schedule and Expand the Global Variables section in the Schedule Batch Job tab. You can then specify a value for all your global variables.
Alternatively, work with control tables and assign values to the global variables in an initialisation script. -
How to set dynamic value for field Month when running background job ?
Dear guys,
I have a Z* report in our company, in the selection screen there is a period field (Month and Year) and this report running in background job periodically. My Question is how i can set for Month field become dynamic follow month value of date when this report executed ?
Example :
When Z* report running in background on 16.04.2008, Month Value will be 04 and when running on 16.05.2008, Month Value will be 05.

Passing data from a background job to RFC calls in different App server
The program i am working on can be explained in the following steps:
Step A- We use a standard program that is executed as a background job and the standard program obtains some data for a particular scenario.
Step B - The job(standard program) during its execution creates many RFCs executed as dialog work processes on various application servers and processes data.In the RFCs various exits are executed.
We currently write data to database(Z table) in Step A and retreive data in exits in Step B to access the information written to DB(Z table). We want to eliminate writing to database since it consumes time.
Is there any solution apart from writing data to database and retreiving the same.
I am not sure if we can use ABAP memory or SAP memory to access the information in the exits since they are executed on different App servers.We have not been able to arrive at a solution to the below, any solutions / inputs will be rewarded.

Change internal table values in background job
Hello All,
Currently we have a report which is running in background job.
Because of error in one PO (error in header status), the job is getting cancelled in production.
Is there any way, we can exclude this PO in debugging from the internal table.
The report should run in background, the requirement is exclude the PO from internal table and the background process should run as normal after excluding that PO.
Please advise how to do this.
Thanks,
PriyaHi All,
Thanks for your replies.
I found the following way to debug the background job helpful. Go to SM37, select the job name and do as shown below. Once you click Capture: Active job, debugger will open and we can analyze from there further. -
Problems creating background job for program (job open, submit and close)
Hi gurus,
im trying to start a background job using the FM BP_START_DATE_EDITOR to show the start date to the job or if it's imediate. this FM it's working fine, after call it im opening a job, submiting it and call the job close FM and the job close FM creates me the job.
The problem it's when i go to the sm37 to see the job status the job has been canceled, and the job log says that i have to give a start date to the job.
What i dont understand it's either the job is imediate or i choose a date to start the job always gives me this error...

Failed to Run OLE Excel program in background JOB (SM36)
Please help.
I have write a program to use OLE to create a Excel file.
The program can run successful in front end workstation. However, when I run the program in background job by SM36.
The statement "CREATE OBJECT EXCEL 'EXCEL.APPLICATION'" return with error "SY-SUBRC = 2".
How can I solve it ?
Can OLE Excel be run on background job ?
Thanks so much,
MarkHi Mark:
Your need is a very common one. I also was asked to generate an Excel in Background.
It is not possible to work with OLE in background mode.
The reason is: In background mode there is no presentation server. OLE is executed in presentation server.
Below I paste the code I wrote to solve my problem.
This class sends a mail with an excel attached. The Excel content will be the internal table you pass to the class. But the Excel is not binary, it is a plain text file, separated by tabulators. Anyway, when you open it with Excel, the columns are properly shown.
Sorry. Comments are in spanish, I don't have time to translate it.
I kindly ask to everybody which want to use it to keep my name in the code.

Background Job Processing Spool Retention period
Hi ,
In my program i am calling another ABAP program and sumitting the same as a background job(using Job_Submit,Close etc.)
In this case i can view the Spool generated by the called program(using sm37).
But this spool exists for a very less period in the system.Is it possible to specify a retention period,as 90 days in my case.?
Pls Help !!!
Answers will be rewarded.
Regards,
Rohanhi Roahn,
You must set print parameters before the printing process starts.
When printing lists after creating them, the system uses the print format specified in the print parameters to split the completed list and fit it onto the print pages, truncating it if necessary.
When printing lists while creating them, the system uses the print format to actually format the list in the program.
Print parameters are set either interactively by the user or from within the program.
For each print process, the spool system needs a complete and consistent set of print parameters. In ABAP, the structure PRI_PARAMS (ABAP Dictionary) represent a set of print parameters.
When passing the print parameters interactively, the system displays a dialog box after starting the report, on which the user has to enter the most important print parameters.
It's shown below which input field of the Print List Output dialog window conform to which PRI_PARAMS component.
Input field----
Retention period
Component-------PEXPI
Meaning----
Number of days for which the system holds the spool request before deleting it. (Default value: 8). -
Start background Job when another is finished (NOT with the JobSteps)
Hi guys,
i need your help.
I've already searched here in forum, but i wasn't able to find a good solution.
I have this problem.
I have a program that create a background job with the FM FM JOB_OPEN.. SUBMIT report with parameters .. JOB_CLOSE.
I want that if i run this report again (20 secs after for example) it does:
- Check if there is an already running Job with the same name (means with state 'R') (This task is simply, with a select on TBTO table)
- If it's found, it have to create a new job with the same name that starts automatically AFTER the first running job is finished (don't care about the end-state of the first job).
I've already tried with pred_jobcount & PRED_JOBNAME parameters of the JOB_CLOSE FM but it doesen't works!
The JOB_CLOSE, creates a job in Planned state. But when the first Job is finished, the second job(Planned) doesen't start automatically.
In this scenario, i CANNOT use endless loops (wait until the first job is finished and then submit the second) Job-steps (one job that contains multiple steps) events (i have to start only one job after the predecessor is finished), because this report could be run many times and each job should be collected like a "stack" (only when the first job is finshed the second "registered" should be started and so on, until the aren't more planned jobs).
<REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thx a lot for your help.

Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Jun 12, 2008 12:19 PMHi Veda
i can tell u but ... some reward points are very appreciated ....
I'm joking (of course)
Here the question:
I have a program (called A) that submit a new program (called B) with the JOB_OPEN .. submit JOB_CLOSE. The program B should start only if another program B (called before for example) is finished.
Here the solution.
I add a parameter (with no-display clausole) to the program B. In this parameter i pass to the program, the job number returned by the JOB_OPEN function.
When i create the JOB with the function, the "jobname" parameter is set with value 'G_DELIVERY' (Here u can change the name of the job as u want : this is the jobname that u see in SM37 transaction).
In the start-of-selection of program B i put a "waiting" procedure like this :
First i save a timestamp of system-date and system-time (called for example r_date and r_time)
select from table TBTCO all the jobs called "G_DELIVERY" with jobnumber <> from the jobnumber parameter (that means exclude itselfs) with status running ('R') -> that have startdate /starttime less than the r_date and r_time <- (this is the key of the selection that solve the problem).
if it is found (means there is another running job started before this one).
wait up to 60 seconds. "for example
repeat the selection.
endif.
When the job called before ends, this one programs exits from the loop and continues. If u submit more programs "B", they'll works like a stack.
I should say to u just one thing.... I solved my problem in another way (because i've changed the logic so this problem was no more) so i didn't implemented that logic, but it should works very good.
Try it and tell me!
Bye

I have requirement where in after obtaining all the required inputs from the user we will call an function module to execute it.
The requirement is that the execution of fm shld happen in background and a log must be created showing the user whther it was successful or if it failed with the list of errors.
Can you kindly give some input on how to schedule the execution of function module in background job and if scheduled how to create the logs to display the success or error message.
Warm Regards,
Naveen MHi,
Just create a simple program where you have to call this FM.
Pass the values to FM either by declaring some internal table of selection screen and execute the program in background.
For Message Log, you can use structurre BDCMSGCOLL
DATA: MESSTAB LIKE BDCMSGCOLL OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
After Call to FM, read from this internal table as follows
READ TABLE MESSTAB WITH KEY MSGTYP = <Message Type>
MSGNR = <Message Number>.

Problem in Background Job. Job Completed Successfully but data not Posted
Hi All,
There is a problem in Background Job in Production server (600).
The job completed successfully but data not posted.
The same Job was working perfectly till the starting of the May month.
but now it is not working and rebate has not been posted.
Where to check and what to check
Pls suggest.
Regards,
P KamalHi ,
Please first check the status of the Job , ifs successfully completed then debug it (tcode JDBG) and
check out, whether the values passed (might be using Import-export ,set-get parameter Ids) to the Job are getting passed properly or not. These values might not be getting passed properly.
If it has some error in Job Log then let me know the error.

Splitting a background job over different application servers
I am running my program in the background and its taking long to complete. I have done some optimizations and it has greatly improved but still not running as fast as I want because its processing large amounts of data and the amount of time that I want all the data to be processed is little compared to the runtime of the program so now I want to split the background job over different application servers. Can someone tell me how do I go about doing that and example ABAP code will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanksHello, If you are interested in BANK_PP_JOBCTRL, here are some of the inputs. Its work very efficeintly, though you will have to investigate a little bit froom your end.
With in package bank_pp_jobctrl , you will find these FM. I have mentioned the use of it as well.
RBANK_PP_DEMO_GENERATE_DATA: To create the Business data for Parallel Processing.
RBANK_PP_DEMO_CREATE_PACKMAN: To create Packages out of the business data.
RBANK_PP_DEMO_START : To process data in parallel.
RBANK_PP_DEMO_RESTART: To re-process failed records during parallel Processing.
You will need to call above in your report program in the same sequence as shown above based on you requirement. I did used only first three.
TO generate events you will need to execute SE38: RBANK_PP_GENERATE_APPL to create application this will create the FM with numbers as shown below.
Events: This PPF automatically triggers various events during the execution of theStart Program. Each of this event is associated with a custom function module which contains the business logic.
For implementing this framework, at least the below mentioned methods should be implemented .
0205 – Create Package Templates : This method is used to write the logic for creating packages which in turn decides the data to be processed in parallel. This function module is called in loop at the loop ends only when the exporting parameter E_FLG_NO_PACKAGE has a value ‘X’ passed back to the Parallel processing framework.
1000 – Initialize Package :This method is the first step in processing a package. It fetches all the parameters required for the parallel processing to start. All the parameters are passed to this FM as importing parameters and it is the responsibility of this FM to save it in global parameters so that it can be utilized by Parallel processing framework.
1100 – Selection per Range : This method is used to read data for a package. The objects selected must be buffered in global data areas of the application for later processing. The package information is stored as interval in global parameters and this information is used to select the package specific data.
1200 – Selection for Known Object List: This method is used instead of method 1100 if it is a restart run. The objects to be processed are known already.
1300 – Edit Objects: The processing logic to be implemented using parallel processing for the selected objects is written in this method. This function module is used to implement the business logic and
Also, obiviously you would like to log your messages , so the framwrok provides macros to do it.
Let me know if you need some further help as I know there is very little information provided on this.
