Background Job Step

Hi,
I have 3 steps in my job. I want to check the status of each job step and if that job step fails , send email to certain people.
How do i go abt doing abt it??
In table TBTCP -- it gives the status of each job step as 'P' ie scheduled even for the finished ones... so i cant get correct data from TBTCP.
Is der any FM implementing the same??
Its Urgent.

Rohan

Hi Rohan,
Instead of creating the stpes, why don't you create the Job after completing the Fisrt job and for the Third Job select after completion of the Second job, so that you will get the Status in TBTCP table from there you can write the code to send the email

Background Job step and Variant

Hi,
We are undergoing process of renaming user IDs(Eg from ABC to XYZ). I would like to know the effect on Background jobs due to renaming. I am sure we need to update the job step(s) with the new user ID. Do we need to do anything with variants too or will they work for new IDs also. Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Venu.

Actual Varaint Name used in the Background Job

Hi,
When a program is executed in Background made the selection screen variant selected is not the one that is shown in the Background Job Step information. There we see variant as &0000000000044.
I want to find the actual variant that was selected at the time of running the program in background mode.
Thanks.

Hi,
I also faced the same issue and after my R&D i found a workaround for this. Check this out.
Create a selection screen parameter and hide it.
PARAMETERS: po_varnt TYPE sy-slset NO-DISPLAY.
Now place below code in AT SELECTIO-SCREEN OUTPUT event.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
    CHECK sy-batch IS INITIAL.
    CLEAR po_varnt.
    MOVE sy-slset TO po_varnt.
If you are running in background by pressing F9 from selection screen, Use your hided parameter po_varnt for the variant name instead of sy-slset.
If you are running the report in foreground or through SM36 then you can use sy-slset to know the variant name.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Background Job Monitoring

Hi everbody,
Please tell how to get the program name which r scheduled in the background jobs in SM36,37 if we know the background job name.
Thanx and regards,
Rajvinder Sahni

Hi Rajvinder,
Just look into table TBTCP. It will gives you about Background Job Step Overview.
Give background job name in field JOBNAME then it will you report name in field PROGNAME.
In addition to this there is another table which gives about Job Status is TBTCO.
Thanks,

How to find Spool number for a 2 steps background job.

Hi All,
How to find spool number (and also the background job name ) for a 2 steps background job.
in the table TBTCO i can see step numbers but i dont get the spool number. Is there any link between TBTCO and TSP01.
Also after getting the spool number i need to drill down on ALV report. I hard coded the spool number and was able to drill down using BDC and call transaction but when i press back button it is not returning to the ALV report.
Thanks,
Shiva.

Which one creates the spool? (first one I guess)
What kind of spool? (WRITE, sapscript, smartform, pdf...)
Do you use special statements like NEW-PAGE, or other things?
Are you sure that the spools are generated by these jobs? (did you compare the spool generation times and job run dates to be sure...)

Background job not updating data for some steps of program

We have created a custom program and submitting the standard program RPRCCC_READ_KR1025
which is used for conversion of AMEX credit card files.
Since this program can update data for 1 company id at a time,we have created a background job
for that program with 10 steps and 10 variants of data related to 10 different company codes.
when this job is executed it is not updating data for all the 10 files , sometimes it updates 5,7,etc...
If we execute the other files which didnt update in job manually they are getting updated.
All the files executed with that program can be seen in PRTA transaction.
Regards,
Gautham.
Edit: Solved.
Since the standard program updates the database every time with commit work
there should be some time until the next database update,so we can use wait command
after the submit statement which will do the trick.

Hi,
I mean B(Sub Assembly)
Item Rollup Flag
A No
--B Yes
---B1 No
---B2 No
---B3 No
--C Yes
In this case when we run cost rollup by giving item A, Oracle will consider below structure.

Adding a new step in existing background job

Hi,
I have a background job which has 14 steps. I have to add a new program in 15th step. Can any one let me know how to go ahaed with that?
Regards,
Ashish

Go to SM37, go to the "released" version of your job. I assume that it is a periodic job, hence there should be a released version of it. select it and click from the menu, Job--->Change. Click the Steps button from the appliation tool bar, now click the create button. Enter the name of the abap program, click check, and save. That's it.

Creating a Step for Background Job from within ABAP Program

Step-1: I have a Report in ECC, which is scheduled as Background Job, which writes the file to the Application Server(UNIX)
Step-2: Trigger a Unix Command to ftp the file to other server.
Both Step-1 & Step-2 can be done from SM36.
Another Scenario:
Users can run the report in background from SE38 or using the transaction code for the report, In this case we want to call the external command.
Instead of calling the External Command as below in the report, I want to create a Step from within the program when it is scheduled in background mode.
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD lc_unixcom. [ Here lc_unixcom has the External Command ].
Any ideas??? Appreciate help.

Hi,
For submitting a report step, you may use either SUBMIT ... VIA JOB ... or JOB_SUBMIT function module.
For external commands, this should be done only by calling JOB_SUBMIT function module.

For example, Background Job A, contains 5 job step, once the background is running, we would like Job A not run thru job step 4 and 5, just run up to job step 3.
Anyone have any idea how can I do that?

Try to delete instead of cancel in SM37.
To cancel and active job, select the job from SM37 and Click on STOP button in application toolbar. You can refer to your other thread for more info.
