"Something" has to do the conversion to excel, it will not work without programming.
If you display a grid the data is sent via OLE to the frontend where excel is started and displaying the data. If you run a program in the background there is no terminal connection and hence no excel and hence no conversion.
What you can do is that you display the data as raw data and send it as attachment - but then people need to import and convert themselves.

Send ALV report as attachment in EXCEL format

Hi SAP Guru,
I had a report output as ALV format.
Currently, when the background job ended, it would be send out to the recipent thru SAPconnect as PDF format using internet mailing address.
I tried to search for a configuraiton for EXCEL output but there don;t seems to be any option availble.
I can only choose from PDF/TEXT/HTM/PS in the output document type selection in SOST.
How can I configure to allow the system to send out the ALV report to my recipent in EXCEL format instead of PDF or HTML?
Thanks

Hi,
By Using OOPS Concept you can send ALV Output as Excel Format by using Class Interface: CL_BCS.
Do some search on CL_BCS.
There are some demo Program, sreach for BCS* on SE38.
Thanks & Regards

Scheduling of ALV Reports in Background

I have schedule a Report in the Back ground and also entered the spool list so that the mail can be sent to the said users but when the Report is recvd in the mail box it is recvd as html and there are many columnns in my report that are not visible.
can i schedule the report and send the report as an excel attchement in the background processing if so then how can i do that
you early reponse will be appreciated
abhishek

Hi,
Once you schedule the ALV report in background you will not get the entire list as it is. The output lenght of the ist generated in the background is set to 255 characters and generally data exceeding this lenght will be turncated.
You cannot download a report in excel in background. The FM's GUI_download will not work in backgorund. You will have to write the data on the application server and then write an additional program to read that data or alternatively use some of the std tcodes to fetch that data to the presentation system.

Running the alv report in background and sending it thro email

hi,
      i have to run the alv report in background and send the output through email

Hi
Many a times there is a requirement to display ALV Grid (not ALV List) in the background Job. I have checked the SDN Forum for the same and it has been mentioned that ALV Grid cannot be displayed in Background, but the list output of ALV is possible. So user wont have the actual Grid interface but the List interface.
There is a workaround to display ALV Grid in Background Job. The only restriction is you cant schedule the job through SM36. You need to execute the transaction of the report program, fill in the selection screen data and hit Execute.
The job would be executed in background. User will be able to see the Job Log and Job Status after executing the program. User doesnt have to go to SM37 to view the job status/log. Once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED, user can click on DISPLAY SPOOL to view the ALV Grid.
Limitations:
Cant schedulea background job
The session should be active until the background job is completed. If the session is closed, then user wont be able to check the output in ALV Grid. User would be able to check the output through spool or SM37
Advantages:
If the spool width is greater than 255 characters, then the entire width could be seen in the output because the output is directed to an ALV Grid and not to spool
Interface of ALV Grid is available instead of ALV List even though its a background job.
Program wont give the TIME OUT error
Steps Required:
1. Once you execute the program, the following screen would be displayed
2. Click Display Job Status to check the Status of the Background Job
3. Click on Display the Job Log to check the Log
4. Click on Display Job Status to check the Job Status
5. Click on DISPLAY SPOOL to check the spool content once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED. Output is displayed in ALV Grid
Programs:
1. Two different programs needs to be created
ZPROGRAM_ONE: This is the 1st program, where the selection screen and all the data validations would be done. Error handling for invalid data should be done in this program.
Once the data validation is done, this program would call the 2nd program ZPROGEAM_TWO. Build the logic to display ALV Grid in this program. The logic will only display ALV in foreground and it wont be reflected in the spool.
ZPROGRAM_TWO: This program would fetch all the data and do all the processing. If you want the spool output along with ALV Grid output, then build the logic in this program to display ALV Grid.
*& Report ZPROGRAM_ONE                                                *

Running ALV REPORT in background

Hi Experts ,
Before writing this query , i went through all the threads related to ALV report in background . But found none of them satisfactory .
I am running a alv report in background . I am not using OO ALV . I am using " REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY" .
This report is schedules through a background job . It is creating a spool .
But I am getting a error message : *" FRONT END NOT AVIALABLE "*
What i have found so far :
I am planning to use sy-batch variable to check whether it is running in background or not , Then I am planning to read the spool and if the spool is created , i will display the ALV .
Is this the correct approach or some other way to generate the ALV REPORT .
Also by this way will the error message *" FRONT END NOT AVIALABLE "* go .
Please advice .
Regards,
Abhishek

Hello Everyone ,
Thanks for your replies .
I have the spool generated . But it is waiting status .
The issue here is how I am going to say that the spool is in " Completed " status . Because only after when my spool is in completed status , I want to display the status .
Is there way for this ?
Regards ,
Abhishek

Is it possible to run ALV report in background if Yes how?

is it possible to run ALV report in background if Yes how?

Hi,
Why not?Through se38 only you create ALV report. there you can give your report name and go to program on menu bar - click - execute buton- click-Background . You will get new screen there you can choose Execute immediate or schedule.

How to submit a ALV report in background

Can you provide a peice of code to submit an ALV report in background?
and is it possible to provide a header information dynmically, (changing when we say page down) in ALV?

Hello,
you can submit in background as a normal report.
If you want to get the header informations. Handle through events. Events can be handle through registring the Event handler method.
Eg:
Events
    CREATE OBJECT eventhandler_object.
register eventhandler
    SET HANDLER eventhandler_object->handle_print_top_of_list
     FOR g_o_grid.
CALL METHOD g_o_grid->set_table_for_first_display

Pdf reports to run in excel format

I have a report and output is in pdf format. Some users want the report to run in excel format for them to make changes and do mail merging. How can I acomplish this. I have reports 10g
Thanks in advance
Anu

Use DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048.pdf
Page A-33
(Command line only) The report output is sent to an HTML file that
can be directly opened with Microsoft Excel 2000. You can generate
spreadsheet output from the paper layout of reports saved in any
format (.rdf, .jsp, .xml). See Usage Notes.
Page A-34
When DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET, the report output preserves the rich layout
formatting such as colors, fonts, conditional formatting, graphs, and images. For
detailed information about how different report objects are generated in a report
run to DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET, see "About Spreadsheet Output" in the Oracle
Reports online Help (and also in the "Advanced Concepts" chapter in the Oracle
Reports Building Reports manual).

Can we adjust ROW height in ALV report as like of Excel ?

Dear all,
Can we adjust ROW height in ALV report as like of Excel sheet ?
Can we increase/decrease the row height in the output display ?
How ?

kps204020 wrote:
Thanks a lot for your response.
I've tried your proposal, but it has no affect. The report cells show all their content using as much lines as necessary for this.This is the default behaviour for HTML table data (tables and cells expand to fit their content).
So I still have rows with lots of lines and rows with only a few lines mixed in my IR dependant on the cell content. Because some rows filling nearly the whole screen, it is difficult to get an overview with regard to adjacent rows.
I'm using Application Express 4.1.1.00.23. with Theme 21. Scarlet and Firefox 17.0.1.Are all users using Firefox?
Actually I'm working on my first APEX Solution for usage in my company and the customers demanding a solution for this topic . So I'm very keen to find a solution.
I'm very much looking forward to your response.I've been involved with similar issues in the past. My first response is simple: Does this data have to be shown in the report? Can the offending column(s) be removed from the primary report? They will still be visible in the single row view, and the detail view if there is one.
The second option is to create a detail view for the report with a structure that is better suited to the data involved, and make this the default view. (For an example of this, see the treatment of the PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION column in the detail view of the Products report in the Sample Database Application: click on the View Detail button on the Products page.)
The third possibility is some kind of customization of the presentation of the data. This will involve using some combination of HTML/CSS/Dynamic Actions/Plug-ins/JavaScript that you may not be familiar with: do you have experience of these? To go down that route you need to describe in detail how you want to present the data, or what behaviour is required when the data is too long, and share an example of the report on apex.oracle.com that we can work with.

Scheduling of ALV report in Background

Hi,
Presntly I want to schedule ALV report in the Background,
The reprot output which I am getting is desirable.
Please let me know which parameter I need to set it for
processing ALV report in the background.
Thanks in Advance
Irfan Hussain

Hi Irfan,
Here are the steps...
Run the report in background do F9 instead of F8, then give immediate and save.
Then goto Sm35 goto job overview and view the job listed
Choose the job and press the spool button. It will show the list created on the next page. When u clcik the list u can see the ALV output.
To see this the job should be in the finished status.
How to define Periodic Jobs
1.Execute transaction SM36
2.Define Job name, Job class, Target server
3.Click on 'START CONDITION' button
4.Click on 'Date/Time' button
5.Enter Scheduled start DATE & TIME. Check mark 'Periodic Job' field. Click on 'Period values' button and select 'Hourly' or 'Dialy' or 'Weekly' or 'Monthly' or Other period and SAVE. Go back to main screen.
6.Click on 'STEPS' button and enter Program name and Variant under box 'ABAP Program'. Click on 'Print Specification' button and enter Printer name under 'Output device' and SAVE
7.Click on SAVE button until you get message on bottom of the screen that describes 'Job XYZ saved with status: Scheduled'.
8.Click on 'Job overview' button or execute SM37 transaction.
9.Select the appropriate 'Job name', 'User name', 'Job Status' & Schedule date under 'Job start condition' and click on 'Execute' button or press F8.
10.You will now see all your scheduled JOBS.
Hope this helps.

Can we run alv reports in background

hi all
can we run alv reports in background

Hi
Yes You can
see this
Many a times there is a requirement to display ALV Grid (not ALV List) in the background Job. I have checked the SDN Forum for the same and it has been mentioned that ALV Grid cannot be displayed in Background, but the list output of ALV is possible. So user wont have the actual Grid interface but the List interface.
There is a workaround to display ALV Grid in Background Job. The only restriction is you cant schedule the job through SM36. You need to execute the transaction of the report program, fill in the selection screen data and hit Execute.
The job would be executed in background. User will be able to see the Job Log and Job Status after executing the program. User doesnt have to go to SM37 to view the job status/log. Once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED, user can click on DISPLAY SPOOL to view the ALV Grid.
Limitations:
Cant schedulea background job
The session should be active until the background job is completed. If the session is closed, then user wont be able to check the output in ALV Grid. User would be able to check the output through spool or SM37
Advantages:
If the spool width is greater than 255 characters, then the entire width could be seen in the output because the output is directed to an ALV Grid and not to spool
Interface of ALV Grid is available instead of ALV List even though its a background job.
Program wont give the TIME OUT error
Steps Required:
1. Once you execute the program, the following screen would be displayed
2. Click Display Job Status to check the Status of the Background Job
3. Click on Display the Job Log to check the Log
4. Click on Display Job Status to check the Job Status
5. Click on DISPLAY SPOOL to check the spool content once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED. Output is displayed in ALV Grid
Programs:
1. Two different programs needs to be created
ZPROGRAM_ONE: This is the 1st program, where the selection screen and all the data validations would be done. Error handling for invalid data should be done in this program.
Once the data validation is done, this program would call the 2nd program ZPROGEAM_TWO. Build the logic to display ALV Grid in this program. The logic will only display ALV in foreground and it wont be reflected in the spool.
ZPROGRAM_TWO: This program would fetch all the data and do all the processing. If you want the spool output along with ALV Grid output, then build the logic in this program to display ALV Grid.
