Background job running

Hi Friends,
I need to run a standard program(report) in background immediately from my custom program(report) and I need to pick up the output report(standard) table values back to my custom program.
Is it possible? if so Can you pls suggest the solution for the same
I am trying with submit with job statement, but it is only scheduling the job and it is not running immediately. If it runs immediately also I need to pick the values of standard program to my custom program
Thanks in advance
pavan

Hi Pavan,
In this scenario where you want to run the standard report in background from the custom report,the only solution is to schedule the job(any method) with the custom report as the starting point and then use Submit with the values in it and then Use Return along wth it.
OR else use Exporting List to Memory with Submit and Return.
And then,use the Function Module "Importing From Memory" and pass the data from the standard report to the internal table.
In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.
Regards,
Puneet Jhari.

Background Job running long time.

Hello All,
One of customer background job running for long time more than 11 hours, but usually this jobs get completed within 4 hrs.
I have checked in WP trace file, it shows "WP has reached abap/heaplimit=40000000".
This is the Value I can see in RZ11. Now it is not possible to change the value.
Frequently facing this problem, please guide me to solve this issue.
Regards
Vinay.

Hi
First of all, abap/heaplimit is the limit of memory usage by a WP.
Follwing is the documentation from help.sap.com
The value of the parameter should be between 10000000 (10 MB) and 2000000000 (2GB), the recommended default setting is 40000000 (40 MB).
The objective is to have the least number of work process restarts as possible, without a swap space bottleneck occurring. The heap memory allocated by the work processes has to be released again.
As shown in the graphic, the value of abap/heaplimit should be smaller than abap/heap_area_dia or abap/heap_area_nondia, so that the dialog step that is running can still be executed. This prevents the work process from working against the operating systemu2019s swap space limit if there is a programmed termination of the work process.
So,Do the above checks. And importantly check the memory utilizations at the time of running your job and check whether any other job was also running at the sametime.
Increasing the parametes is not a good idea.. If you continuously face this issue then only think of parametes. As u said ,this problem is not happenng too often.
Hope this is useful

Background job running for a long time - trace is not capturing.

hi guys,
My background job runs for more thatn 4 hours. some times. (normally it completes withing one hour)
i tried to trace using st12 ....and executed this program. but not got complete trace report of 4 hours.
what is the best way to trace long running programs like this.
is there any alternative for this...???
regards
girish

Giri,
There is no need to trace a program for the full 4 hours. There is usually just one piece of rogue code causing the problem, and it can be identified quite quickly.
If I were you I would just watch the job run via SM50, to see if it lingers on any database tables. Also check if the memory is filling up - this is the sign of a memory leak.
You can also try stopping the program (via SM50 debugging) at random points, to see what piece of code it is stuck in.
The issue should reveal itself fairly quickly.
Tell us what you find!
cheers

What client is background job running in?

Hello all,
Is there a way to tell which client a background job listed in SM37 is running in? Can't seem to find that information in the job nor any tables. I thought that you could only see the jobs that are running in the client you are logged onto too but that's not the case.
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,
For checking the client for particular background job which is runnig can be cheked by.
Go to SM37- enter the particular job name and the details eg: username and the job start and end condition. Execute this.
Now on top go to Setting->Layout->Change Layout->
On right side u can find the hidden fields-select client from that and bring it to change layout ie. left part. and press copy.
This will change the layout of ur report and u can see the client number for that particular background job running.
U can do this by using * also while mentioning the jobname.This way you do not have to open every job to find out.
Hope this will be of some help.
Thanks

Export of report/query to a file for background job runs

I have a requirement to automate the export of a report or query to a file so when a background job runs a new file is generated to the drive.
This cannot be a customized solution for 1 report, it must be able to adapt to other reports or queries as well.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Thamina

Hi,
SAP have created a standard program RSTXPDFT4 to convert your Sapscripts spools into a PDF format.
Specify the spool number and you will be able to download the sapscripts spool into your local harddisk.
It look exactly like what you see during a spool display.
Please note that it is not restricted to sapsciprts spool only. Any reports in the spool can be converted using the program 'RSTXPDFT4'.

Background Job Run - Error Msg

Hi all,
When i run my report as background job it is failing.
In report i have checked one condition n if that do not satisfy it will give error. but in any situation the background job fails though condition satifies but the spool is getin created.
when i debug the report it gives no error in that report but after it gives System message '' Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE''.
any guidelines will be appreciated...
regards,
vikas.

thankx for your reply..
it is not giving me any dump or something neither my report contains any popup window.
thing is that i am checking one error value at the event END-OF-SELECTION and giving some error mesg depending upon that.
when i check this in debug mode in background mode itself (thr' JDBG or SM50) the value of error mesg is empty...so idealy the report is executed fine but when after words i go for F8 it gives me that error message.

vikas

Background job running slow

Hi,
Suppose any background job is taking much more time than required so how to speed up the job without chaning the master data.
Regards,
Prabhat Sahay

Hello,
If your job is a DP job, please refer to SAP note 864950 and follow the suggestions in the note.
Basically. there're following points:
1)If the job is relevant to planning book/data view, make sure only needful key figures are loaded in the data view.
2)Macros should only be executed on detailed level, except when aggregate level execution is also necessary.
3)Try not to use navigational attributes.
4)Make sure the consisteny of the planning area by:
   /sapapo/ts_lcm_reorg
   /sapapo/ts_lcm_cons_check
5)If you use fixed aggregates, they may affect the performance very much.
   Try to deactivate them and run /sapapo/ts_lcm_cons_check before the job (if the job changes relevant data).
   Then activate and fill the fixed aggregates afterwards.

Ada

SAP R/3 Enterprise : Background job run on application servers

Hello All,
For our SAP system (SAP_BASIS 620, SAP_ABA 620,SAP_APPL 470), there are 5 application servers and one central instance.
We have a Background job that connects to external non sap system for data delivery via RFC of Type "G" i.e.HTTP Connection to Ext. Server with port 443 . RFC works fine.
In transaction STRUST, SSL certificates are also installed to enable the https connectivity from R3 system.
Our current issue is that background jon runs on one of the application server correctly and is able to transfer that data to external system. However if same job runs on other 4 application server, it fails to connect to external server and throws error:
RFC Destination XXXX not defined
407 Unknown error
Failed to store the XML content
Error in the XML document: 1301540.xml
407 Unknown error
This is very starnge for us .RFC is working correctly every time but background job works on one AS and not on other AS.
Where and What can be the difference in application servers.
Please help to send in ur replies. Thanks
Edited by: Chetna Verma on Apr 27, 2011 1:46 PM

Hi,
Is there a firewall between the non SAP system and the SAP system ? It could be that firewall rules have only been set for one only of the SAP application servers ?
Did you check the HTTP connections from each application server ?
Did you check that the ICM is running on each SAP application server ?

GRC AC 5.3 - Sync Mode background job running for days.

We have the following performance issues on the GRC System.
1- Please note that the sync mode background job has been running for DAYS.
My question is if I truncate table virsa_cc_prmvl; (which stores all the analysis results), will my GRC system be effected.
2- Secondly we have a job analysing roles, which causes the performance to go down. And due to we have a extremely high number of roles, we would like to know if there would be a way to improve the analysis for roles. Is there any parameter modification in GRC / J2EE/ backend related to roles?
Details of our roles:
- we have more than 60000 roles in our system
- 75 % of the roles are not assigned to any user (is there a way to avoid these roles? these roles are not put in order so too tedious to choose roles individually or by range.
3- We are running a job with four risks and it's taking more than two minutes per user (we've got 10.000 + users in total)
How can I resolve this performance issue.
4- What is the recommended size of the batch for user sincronization. Should I use 1000 or 10,000 (based on our above environment).
Thanks,
Haleem

How to get spool from background job run?

Hello,
I have this situation and need help on how to resolve:
I have RFC FM which called from another system, in that FM I am submitting BDC section as a batch job by report RSBDCSUB. The problem is that this job may run for 1 or 2 hours and my RFC call will be close by that time. How can I bring the result of my batch job run back to the calling system in this case? Will appreciate any hints.
Thank you,
Glenn

Hi
After you the Job completes. Use the spool ID and fetch the Spool list using the report RSPOLST2.
You can download the spool job using the Function module RSPO_DOWNLOAD_SPOOLJOB.
Thanks

Background Job Running long time in Production system ???

Hi guys,
I have custom report which runs normally in 20 minutes. i am executing this report every day. but when i execute the same report yesterday it took 5 hours.
i did the performance trace ....the sql statements are in acceptable range only. i don't see any major time consumption.
since it's in production system we can't debug the active job....
can u guys, throw light on this issue.
Note : there are many posts related to this already in the forum, but not helps to resolve my issue.
Regards
Girish

Giri,
You can use STAD (or older one SE30) to have a trace of the program if you have that access and will be a great help in finding the problem.
If you can't due to some reason, then next time job runs for long (while in ACTIVE state), check SM50 regularly to see that the is process hanging on a table fetch, check that any of the DB table is not getting frequent locks in SM12.
Also, you should check that if your job does any table update, is there any new index created in prod system for that table.
If you can't find anything, then take the necessary access in Prod from basis temporarily and debug the job to find exact issue.

Background Jobs running for long time.

Dear All,
I had done the Homogeneous System Copy on my ECC 6 QA System successfully by restoring the offline backup of Production system. My system is up & running but I have some Performace issues in the system.

Hi Shambo
have you checked the oracle parameters as per the sap note 830576,and also the backup which you have taken is a logical backup,in that case you have to run the update database statistics either from DB13 or BRTOOLS
also check ST04 and also ST02 to do a performance tuning
I believe its more Database Parameter issue

Exception ( in Reporting Agent ) background job runs indefinitely

Hi
I created an Exception setting under reporting agent (to send out a mail in the SAP Office inbox, on a specific exception) and assigned it under a scheduling package.
I have assigned a proper query variant to the exception setting also.
When I exeucte the job, it goes indefinitely.
I highly appreciate if somebody can help what needs to be done to fix this.
Thanks
KC

Hi,
If you choose the Precalculate by User option, all the data and HTML pages for the Reporting Agent setting are precalculated for each of the selected users in a single job. This applies in both the cases: Roles or users. When you specify a role after selecting the option 'Precalculate by User', the precalculation will be done for all the users assigned to that role and not the role.
Roles/Users is just 2 different ways of giving the user restriction. If you specify the roles, the system will precalculate for all the users assigned to the role. If you have few users for whom you want the precalculation to be done, then you can specify the user IDs. If you have many users assigned to a particular role for whom you want the precalculation to be done, then you can specify the role.

Shilpa

HRALXSYNC Background job is cancelled

Hi,
I scheduled HRALXSYNC report in background but it is executed for some time and then it is Canceled and the job type is execute immediately.
Here am pasting the details of scheduled job.
Date            Time           Message text
08/30/2011 07:09:52    Job started
08/30/2011 07:09:52    Step 001 started (program HRALXSYNC, variant SAP&DEFAULT, user ID SHAIKSJ)
08/30/2011 07:17:34    Enter at least one number for the business partner
08/30/2011 07:17:34    Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE
Note: Here this background job run as "changes since".
Can any suggest me how to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Saleem

Hi Saleem,
Not sure if you already solved your issue.
But I have one remark regarding the value of "Changes Since":
The program HRALXSYNC stores the date of last successful runtime in table T77ZZ (REPID=HRALXSYNC).
"01.01.1900" is the inital default date. Please start HRALXSYNC in dialog mode and select "Changes Since" and execute the program. Then select all lines of the result list and press on the 'Repair' button. Errors in the result need to be investigated.
I am actually as well 'fighting' in the area of HR data Integration into CRM.
Kind Regards,
Bjoern

Background job Problem

Hi,
I scheduled a Program for background job running for every 10 minutes.
When i go to SM37 I am seeing all the background jobs, it is creating a newline for every 10 min in the list.
my problem is , Is there any settings to change for showing only one job that means over writing the old job and show the latest job.
Thanks in advance,
fractal

Assuming that intention is to monitor jobs that are either failed or active, you can deselect rest of the radio buttons at the selection screen so as to see failed / active jobs.
Other than this, I dont think there is any solution / way to do this.
