Background job with download

Hi
Is it possible to set a program , that contains the download , in background?
If so, how?
Thank U
Narendra

hi,
You cannot download to the frontend in a background job because the GUI isn't available.
You will have to use OPEN DATASET stmts and
put the file on the Application server in the background
and then use the transaction CG3Y in the foreground to download the file to the pc from the application server.

Why the background job for downloading file failed?

I have a background job for downloading file with logical path.
with
'OPEN DATASET l_out_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT';
Now, the program can be run in foreground;but when it running on background, it shows 'open file error'.
I do not know what happen?
Please help ~~

Hi,
The logical path you have provided might be incorrect or you might not have the necessary authorization to read/write on that folder.
Please check the folder in transaction AL11 & check whether you have the authorization to read/write. BASIS consultant would be able to tell you about it.

Background job with immediate start

Hi,
In my program, I have to create a background job with immediate start. I used function module 'BP_JOB_CREATE', but it does not start immediately.
Can anybody provide sample code for immediate job start.
Regards,
Nitin

Hi,
Use these function modules.
JOB_OPEN
JOB_SUBMIT
JOB_CLOSE
in JOB_SUBMIT function module u can pass to start the job immediately in export parameters PRIPARAMS structure field name PRIMM which has to be set to 'X' to start immediately.

Background job to download standard ALV reports

Hi,
Could anyone knows how to download an standard ALV report in a background job?
In a job I made, some ALV reports were precessed and made, and their spools were made,
but not downloaded.
Regerds,
Katsumi Makabe

hi,
I think you can have a network shared folder on application server.
you said that it is a comma separated file.
1) Using TCODE CG3Z, upload the flat file to application server , remember to copy the path (it contains file path aswellas name).
2) Using DATASET read the filepath along with the name and read each line into workarea and split at ',' into fields.
3) Then append those fields to internal table.
using the FMs job_open, job_submit and job_close you can go for background scheduling.
Please go through the following link for sample code on FTP.

Background Job with User Name

I am trying to submit report program in background job. I want to submit it with specific user name so I am submitting with user name as 'ABC' as below
data: user type sy-uname.
user = 'ABC'.
SUBMIT z_program AND RETURN
             WITH matnr = matnr
             WITH werks = werks
             USER user
             VIA JOB jobname
             NUMBER jobcount
But it creates job with current user(sy-uname) running the program and not 'ABC'. How I can change it for specified user?

SUBMIT z_program AND RETURN
WITH matnr = matnr
WITH werks = werks
USER user
VIA JOB jobname
NUMBER jobcount
AND RETURN.    "you forgot to return back
Of course the user should be the one existing in the system. I guess there is no such ABC. Find the one which exists (use i.e. su01).

Schedule background job with different user

hi ,
i want to schedule a background job under a different user
i have used the parameter AUTHCKNAM of 'job_submit'
it is giving sy-subrc = 0 .
but it is not working
i have also used the FM 'bp_job_create' in place of 'job_open'
it is giving sy-subrc = 0 .
but not working as needed
kindly help
regards...

hi
Try this
We can do that via SUBMIT statement:
Go through the documentation os SUBMIT statement with addition:
... USER user VIA JOB job NUMBER n
Schedules the specified report in the job specified by the job name job and the job number n. The job runs under the user name user and you can omit the addition USER user. The assignment of the job number occurs via the function module JOB_OPEN (see also the documentation for the function modules JOB_CLOSE and JOB_SUBMIT). This addition can only be used with the addition ...AND RETURN.
OR
go through this link , i hope this ll help you to solve your problem

Background Job : To download file to windows server

Hi Gurus,
Here we have to develop a program thats creates a csv file in a network shared folder( a windows folder), We have to schedule it as a background process. We cant use gui_upload function module, since it doesnt support background jobs.
Please share your ideas.
Any idea about ftp?
Thanks in advance,

How to run a background job with the cloud_scheduler package

Hi,
Is the cloud_scheduler package able to run background jobs as documented? When you try to run a job in another session using:
cloud_scheduler.run_job(job_name=>'MYJOB', use_current_session=>false);
The call fails with:
ORA-20002: Cannot run job MYJOB. Adhoc background execution is disallowed. Please enable the job instead.
If you try to use cloud_scheduler.enable to run the job then the job does not run when scheduled.
Rod West

Hi Rod,
Yes, I believe so. Here's a test case that I just ran successfully from SQL Workshop in my database trial service:
create table myjob_test (aa timestamp with time zone);
begin
    cloud_scheduler.create_job (
        job_name        => 'MYJOB',
        job_type        => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
        job_action      => 'begin insert into myjob_test values (systimestamp); commit; end;',
        repeat_interval => 'freq=minutely; interval=3' );
end;
begin
    cloud_scheduler.enable ( name => 'MYJOB' );
end;
select job_name, state, run_count, failure_count, last_start_date, next_run_date, systimestamp from sys.user_scheduler_jobs;
select * from myjob_test order by aa;Is the next_run_date in the past for your job? If it is, try disabling/enabling the job to "reinitialize" the job's schedule.

I do not think this is possible (ie unless you think of modifying SAP code).

Monitoring multiple background jobs with CCMS

Hi,
     Can multiple background job be monitored with the help of CCMS.If yes then    is it adviseable to go ahead with that or not?
     Say the number of jobs to be monitored are 1000 in SCM.....
     If yes plz suggest me how the same can be done ?
Regards
Siddharth

Yes Multiple jobs can be monitored using CCMS .. You dont have to monitor all the jobs , you can restrict it by entering the job name in ALBTCMON . The following link will be helpful

Can I schedule a program as a periordic background job with dynamic viarent

Hello experts, Can I schedule a progarm as a periodic background job run every day with dynamic condition (current day), if can,how?
Best wishes,
Evan

Hi,
You can do this to get desired results:
Write a small new program that calls the program that you need to run daily by using submit .
The new program can give input of current date to the called program.
Now you can schedule the new program as a daily batch job.
