Background Processing, Selection Screens and Variants

Hi All,
I am having a little trouble Background Processing with Selection Screens and Variants.
When a user runs my report and selects the option of background processing, then they select a checkbox. Once this is checked, they should go and fill in details, press Execute and voila a background process is created. However what is happening is that when i execute it then it asks for a variant. I do not want this to happen. I want the values in the selection screens to be used as default. Here is my code for background processing
FORM START_BACKGROUND_PROCESSING.
CALL FUNCTION 'BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE'
    EXPORTING
      TITLE_NAME            = 'End Customer Report '
      JOB_NAME              = 'customer_report'
      PROG_NAME             = 'ZSE_SD_SALES'
EXCEPTIONS
    NO_SUCH_PROGRAM       = 1
    OTHERS                = 2
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.                    "START_BACKGROUND_PROCESSING
After the background process is started, all teh data is collated then written to the app server. this is the order
ELSEIF R2 EQ 'X' AND SY-BATCH EQ 'X'.
    PERFORM INITIALIZE_DATA.
    PERFORM SELECT_DATA.
    PERFORM PROCESS_DATA.
    PERFORM GET_END_CUSTOMER_DATA.
    PERFORM WRITE_TO_APP_SERVER.
Any ideas? Points given to those who are helpful

To run a report in background in selection screen using a new button

hi friends iam new member to this site
nice to meet u all
i want to run a report in background using the selection screen of the same report and i want to keep a button in application tool bar.
after enter the values in the selection screen by clicking that button it should move to the screen which we get generally by menu option
program-->execute in background
and by entering the output device and start condition it should be scheduled in the background.
with job_open,job_submit and job_close we need variants.
for this i tried through bp_jobvariant_schedule and
bp_jobvariant_overview but with this we can run with variants only
but the user wants to enter the values in selection screen and need a button to run background
ok friends i think u understood me
please inform soon ok bye have a nice time

Hi Jagadish
There are two ways for you to handle the situation.
1. Train the users to enter the values in selection screen and manually go for backgroung scheduling.
2. Use At user command and within that basing on the option selection selected, use FM:JOB_OPEN with sy-repid get the job number, submit the program with the values on the selection screen and lastly executing FM: JOB_CLOSE with the job number from JOB_OPEN and SY-REPID.
Note that you have to set 'X' for export parameter something like startimmed while calling FM: JOB_CLOSE for immediate execution. Am not on SAP to give you the exact parameter.
Hope the above info helps you.

What is a Selection Screen and how to make it ?

What is a Selection Screen and how to make it ? Please explain the process.
Best regards,
Ryan

Selection Screen are used for the program reports. These allows you to input some values that are required to show the desired output.
for example : you want to show the list of sales orders between 1000 to 1999, you would write a select query as this (to make u understand better)
select vbeln from vbak into it_vbeln
             where vbeln GE 1000 " greater than or equal to
               and vbeln LE 1999. " less than or equal to
now if you wnat to do it dynamically, you need a selection screen
tables : vbak. " declaration
selection-screen : begin of block block1 with frame title text-003.
select-options : so_vbeln for vbak-vbeln. " selection range from __ to __
selection-screen : end of block block1.
now you can write the same select query as
select vbeln from vbak into it_vbeln
             where vbeln in so_vbeln.
Hope this is clear now

How to hide input fields on selection screen using variant attribute

Hello all,
I want to know how to hide input fields on selection screen using variant attribute conpletely.
As you know, when setting the attribute of variant "Hide field" checked, the field is temporarily hidden, but when clicking "All Selections(F7)" button on the selection screen, the fileds become appeared.
I want to hide the field completely. Di you know how to do ?
Thank you for your support.
Regards,
Hideki Kozai

Use this attribute hide field and save the variant. Then create transaction for this program setting default variant for parameter Start with variant . The user who runs it will have it by defualt set.
Otherwise
in PBO simply use LOOP at screen and output = 0 for this field. This will ensure that field is invisible in any case.

Selection screen and DP

Hi friends
          Can any one tell me which event triggers first and the order of event triggering when both selection screen and dialog program is used..Also tell me which event wont fire.
Regards
Suresh.A

Here is the Sequence.
1. First Load-of-Program event is triggred by default when you execute any report.
2. Inisilization.
3. At-selection Screen output.
4. At selection Screen.
5. Start-of-selection.
6. end-of-selection.
if you are calling screen in your report you will be doing so in Start-of-selection
then after start-of-selection.
              Process before output
              Process after input
             (if you add POH, and POV, these event will trigger when you press F1 or F4)
              End-of-selection.
Thanks & regards

Difference between At selection-screen and At selection-screen field

I need to know the difference between
Difference between At selection-screen and At selection-screen field
Regards
Shashi

Hi,
AT SELECTION-SCREEN is the event triggered in the PAI of the selection screen.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN on field field_name is the event specific to the field and is triggered when u press enter in that field.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN selscreen_event.
Effect
This statement defines event blocks for different events selscreen_event that are triggered by the ABAP runtime environment during selection screen processing.
Selection screen events occur immediately before sending a selection screen and after certain user actions on a displayed selection screen. They assist in selection screen processing in the ABAP program.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN is triggered at least twice during actions on selection screens that are linked into another selection screen as a subscreen - first for the linked selection screen itself, and then for the linking selection screens.
SELECTION-SCREEN FIELD SELECTION
FOR {NODE|TABLE} node [ID id].
Effect
This statement defines a node node in the structure of the logical database for field selection. If a node belongs to type T, you can use the TABLE addition instead of NODE. The statement cannot be used for type C nodes. .
If a node is defined for field selection, you can use an executable program linked to the logical database in the GET statement to control which fields in the node are to be read by the logical database. If you use the function module LDB_PROCESS, the FIELD_SELECTION parameter must be specified accordingly.

Restrict 'Executing report in background' from selection screen

I want user to not to select option for executing report in background from Selection Screen of the program.
i.e. 'Execute Program in Background' option in 1st menu bar tab should either be disabled OR if user clicks on it then he should get error message on selection screen itself.
Thanks,
Falguni

Hi Falguni,
Write the code based on function code SJOB in the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN. Write the following code :
AT SELECTION-SCREEN
CASE SY-UCOMM.
WHEN 'SJOB'.
MESSAGE E000 WITH 'You cannot schedule background job'.
ENDCASE.

Selection-screen and GET

Hi all,
in my program i use PNP logical database, so system create automatically selection screen. Nice.
When user fill selection screen event start-of-selection is launched and i do GET PERNR for read data from PNP.
But my customer want to add field in selection screen. Ok, i did that. Well, now he want that when a user fills new fields the PNP is not read i.e GET PERNR shouldn't be launched, so i my program i write this :
if myfield is initial.
GET PERNR.
else.
PERFORM get_data.
endif.
But when i compile program i can't do that and i don't know how to make this and if it's possible.
Regards,

Hi tafkap,
1. u have created a z report and
   u are using PNP logical database.
2. u say,
, now he want that when a user fills new fields the PNP is not read i.e GET PERNR shouldn't be launched
suppose this is achieved, then how
are u going to fetch the data
and show the report ?
3. If u already have the logic for
   getting information from database and showing
   to the user,
   then do not use GET event.
(It is not compulsory in a ldb)
4. Instead use START-OF-SELECTION
   event
   and do the normal programming.
5. In such case,
   the selection screen (and ur extra field(s))
   will be displayed as usual
   and your own code will get triggered
   at start-of-selection.
I hope it helps.
regards,
amit m.

Hi Senthil,
As far as my knowledge is concerned AT Selection-Screen output and AT Selection-Screen wont work together.In this code you are trying to do the validation in AT Selection-Screen. Instead of that try doin your validations in Start-of-selection Event.
i,e., modify your code as follows:
PARAMETERS: p_werks LIKE marc-werks OBLIGATORY MEMORY ID WRK,
p_lgort LIKE mard-lgort OBLIGATORY,
p_rlgort LIKE mard-lgort OBLIGATORY.
PARAMETERS: p_boml TYPE c RADIOBUTTON GROUP mode user-command flag.
SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
PARAMETERS: p_aufnr LIKE aufk-aufnr MODIF ID cp2.
SELECTION-SCREEN: END OF BLOCK b1.
*SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 1(44) text-004 FOR FIELD p_cmpl.
PARAMETERS: p_cmpl TYPE c RADIOBUTTON GROUP mode.
SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK b2 WITH FRAME TITLE text-002.
PARAMETERS: p_matnr type marc-matnr MODIF ID cp1,
p_verid type afpo-verid MODIF ID cp1,

ENDIF.
IF p_cmpl <> 'X' AND
screen-group1 = 'CP2'.

Selection Screen and Selection Button

Hi,
I have put in a screen this
SELECTION-SCREEN PUSHBUTTON /01(20) p_0031 USER-COMMAND _0031.
But It never enters 'at user-command' event !
What should i do ?

Hi Stephan
If you specify the USER-COMMAND addition, the pushbutton must be assigned a function code fcode. The function code fcode must be specified directly and can only contain a maximum of 20 characters.
Before you can work with the pushbutton, you must specify a TABLES statement to declare an interface work area for the structure SSCRFIELDS from the ABAP Dictionary.
If the user selects the pushbutton on the selection screen, the runtime environment triggers the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN and the function code fcode is transferred to the ucomm component in the interface work area sscrfields.

Santosh
