ALV report run In background gives 2 spool numbers

Hi ,
The ALV report which I am running in Background gives me 2 spool numbers after the Job is created in sm37.
I am just executing my ALV report by running it in backgroung procressing, but I get 2 spool one has all the correct data of the ALV and 1 blank spool is created.
I have Passed the followin parameter to my ALV FM.
lwa_print-no_change_print_params = 'X'.
lwa_print-no_print_listinfos = 'X'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
   EXPORTING
     i_callback_program       = sy-repid
     i_callback_pf_status_set = 'SET_PF_STATUS'
     i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND'
     i_default                = space
     is_layout                = t_layout
     is_print                 = lwa_print
     it_fieldcat              = t_fieldcat
   TABLES
     t_outtab                 = t_final
   EXCEPTIONS
     program_error            = 1
     OTHERS                   = 2.
Unable to find the reason why I get 2 spool created for it?
Thanks
Ritesh

Hi venkatesh,
Thanks for the reply.
I tried that also but issue was due to a SKIP statement called in the program and due to which a new spool which was blank was called.
The issue is resolved.
Thanks

Error when OO ALV report run in background

Hello all,
We recently applied stack 12 for a 7.0 system. My custom ALV report using CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER coding now returns an error when run in Background. It works fine in dialog.
The error occurred in program CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER=======CP. The log message was "Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached".
Is there a solution for OO ALV reports run in the background? I would not like to re-write my ALV reports using the function call. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!

Yes, you need to code it a little differently, but you can still use CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. Here is an example.

hi ,
this will solve your problem

Increasing the width of the spool when using ALV List
By Aafaque Husain, YASH Technologies
Whenever an ALV report (with more number of columns) is scheduled in background, the output will be displayed in a zigzag fashion as shown below:
If we try to download the output from the spool or try to view the output, then we observe that the output is not in an appropriate fashion.
To get the right format of output in the spool we generally increase the u201Cno. of columns fieldu201D in the Format typesu201D. Have a look at the following screenshot:
Sometimes even when we change this field, we get the output truncated at the end, like last few columns are not displayed. There is certain limitation for this field, so that even if increase this value again, we find no change in the output display in spool.
This value is effective only when we check the check box u201CNumber of columns from list display formatu201D in the SPAD transaction.
Ø       GO to SPAD Transaction code
Ø       In the menu Settings -> Spool System as shown belowu2026
Ø       In the others tab check the first check box in the Output Controller block, SAVE and exit.
Now Schedule the ALV report again by providing the output device and format, and then we get the full output in the spool as shown below:

ALV report run in background creates problem

hi All,
i have a ALV report which works fine in foreground but when i run the report in background
(Execute in beackground option) the job always gets cancelled.
As i was thinking that its due to quantity and currency field i passed the below parameters inMY FIELD CAT
w_fieldcat-CFIELDNAME = p_001.
w_fieldcat-CURRENCY = 'WAERS'.
w_fieldcat-CFIELDNAME = p_001.
w_fieldcat-QUANTITY = 'MEINS'.
Still the job gets cancelled always , can anybody help me with this issue?
Please give some useful suggestions?

Hi Bhanu
After populating the Grid/List elements, may be you were using 'REUSE_ALV_LIST/GRID_DISPLAY' function module.
As some Function Modules will give problems in background execution,please call the same function module using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID => REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY for some cases it is the good solution.

Data is missing in Even Page when report running in background (spool)

Hi
I have this weird problem in my report. The report would run in background convert the data in to PDF from spool and then email it to people.
Now when the PDF has more then 1 page the error occurs.
It drops the last row from the even page. The total at the end and every thing shows correctly. If there r more than 2 pages then on page 3 the last row is not dropped and its all fine but again on page 4 it drops one record and on page 5 again its working fine.
One thing is it also puts an extra line(horizontal line which is not in the code) on those pages where its unable to put the record and its always the last one on the even page. I also looked up the spool. Its doing it in the spool too. So i think its not the PDF converter its when the spool is getting created for some reason its droping the rows for the even pages...
Did any one else encountered some thing like this? please help.
Thanks

is there any problem with Background spools with SAP? We are running R3 here. And looks like its the spool background job that's creating the error. When i execute the report it shows all the record in print preview or if i print it.
Please Help!

Thnax & Regards

Hi,
If you faced problem in submit statement,then try replacing the same by running the bdc for the particular program that you are using in submit statement.
Make sure that you had given values for all the mandatory parameters and select option in the selection screen of the report program that you are submitting using submit statement.

Is it possible to download to excel when a report running in background

Dear All,
I tried to execute one ALV report in foreground and background. In foreground the report is giving excel download but in background no excel download is coming. Is there any specific reason for that?
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Atanu dey,
If you wnat to download excel in back ground
You have to download in application server only.
EX:
DATA : v_filepath(80)     VALUE '/data/sapdata/inc/error_log/pme_br/',
c_coma     VALUE ',' .
OPEN DATASET v_filepath FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
     LOOP AT i_errors_bat.
     CONCATENATE i_errors_bat-plant c_coma
                             i_errors_bat-zzvendor c_coma
                       INTO v_string.
        TRANSFER v_string TO v_filepath.
      ENDLOOP.
   CLOSE DATASET v_filepath.
Note : you can download in presentation server also.
but it requires lot of authorizations and have to use
FTP commands.
Reason is Apllication server in back ground has to
recognize the from which system request came.
Better go for OPEN DATA sets.

Less coloumns displayed when report run in background

Hi,
There is a problem, when i run a report in background last few columns are not displayed. But when i run it in foreground all the columns are displayed properly.. Bt since the report hs to be run background, I need to fix this issue..
Cn anyone explain why this is happenin and wht i cn do to rectify it?
Thanks
Keshi

Hi,
Use REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY and you will be able to run the report in foreground or background.
If you must use OO ALV controls, you won't be able to run the program in background. In this scenario, I would check SY-BATCH and if it is set, I run REUSE* FM and if not I do CALL SCREEN..
If you are using the ABAP Grid Control (OO object), you can still create the ALV list as a spool listing for the background job.
The easiest way to do this is to put all the create object statements and method calls for the custom container and ALV grid object inside a subroutine (for example, present_grid).
All that is required is a simple check of the sy-batch variable to determine if the program is being executed in the foreground or background.
e.g. if sy-batch is initial.
call screen 0100.
else.
perform present_grid.
endif.
In a PBO module of screen 0100, the subroutine present_grid is also performed.
The set_table_for_first_display method will be invoked in the routine present_grid, however, due to the job being executed in the background, the ALV list output will be written as spool output for the background job.

Srini

After reports running in background job need to get automatically open in excel sheet

Dear All,
I have a requirement which is new to me ,
Once the user runs the report in background system is displaying the output in HTML format .... But the Users needs to open in Excel sheet .
kindly do the needful
Regards
Srikanth BG

Hi Srikanth,
Excel processing in background is currently not possible using standard ways. There exist a really good external library that allows you to handle Excel files, and even create them in background. So you could create a final, ready to use Excel file from your background run that can then be opened.
You might have a look at the library here: http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/abap2xlsx
Maybe it helps and suits your needs.
Cheers,
Marc

ALV reports emailed in background job

Hi,
we have a background job that emails a report to some users. So far so good but the emailed result is a (not very nicely formated) txt file. Is there any way to specify the format of the output so that the report is emailed as a pdf or an html or and excel spreadsheet? Any would do.
Thanks in advance

Report run in background, attachment needs to be sent to user via email

Hi all,
we have a PDF solution which allows the system to send a PDF document as attachment via email to the recipient, all one needs to do is type in recipient email to a predefined PDF printer.
What i need is a similar solution but instead of PDF it has to be an Excel file attached to email.
The enduser does not have authorization to use SM36.
Searching the Web (and with help from our Basis team) i have found several ideas but not sure as it would mean coding programs and so on.
Is there an easier way?
regards
RM
