Archive_schedule_job

Question

I am calling FM archive_schedule_job and these are my parameters:
    CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_SCHEDULE_JOB'
      EXPORTING
        object              = 'IDOC'
        jobtype             = 'DEL'
        cleanup_job_table   = ' '
        start_immediate     = 'I'
        inherit_spool_parms = 'X'
        user                = sy-uname
        file_key            = archkey
        dont_release        = ' '
        indicate_progress   = ' '
        delete_failed_job   = 'X'
      IMPORTING
        jobname             = jobname
        jobcount            = jobcount
      EXCEPTIONS
        object_not_found    = 1
        job_not_created     = 2
        no_such_variant     = 3.
This FM creates a background job to delete archived idocs.
When executed in foreground, it is doing what it's supposed to do (delete archived IDocs). But something strange happens when it (program where FM is called) is executed in background -- though it still does what it's supposed to do.
After executing in background and checking in SM37, the program (which called the FM) is Canceled while the job that the FM created is completed successfully.
The job log for the program is: " Runtime errors         MESSAGE_TYPE_X"
and the code (LARCJF01) where the runtime error occurred is:      
ELSE.                                                             
no archiv_key in case of xml archiving object                         
        IF gv_admi_jobs-document IS INITIAL                             
        OR ( gv_xml IS INITIAL AND gv_admi_jobs-archiv_key IS INITIAL ).
>          MESSAGE x008  WITH                    
          'job_init' 'WRONG ADMI_JOBS ENTRY FOR DEL'        "#EC NOTEXT 
          gv_admi_jobs-document gv_admi_jobs-archiv_key.                
        ENDIF.                                                          
        gv_session = gv_admi_jobs-document.                             
        gv_file = gv_admi_jobs-archiv_key.                              
      ENDIF.                                                            
Please help me how to use the FM correctly. What's wrong with the parameters I passed? I need to be able to run it in background and not receive a canceled status in SM37.
Thank you.

Hi,
You need to define jobs both in BW (Job1) and the third party system (Job2).
Trigger Job1 which will trigger BW job (Job2). You need to set the dependencies on Third Party tool for the third party jobs. No need to define any dependencies for the BW jobs. Individual BOX needs to be identified on third party tool.
