Background run of a report

Hi all,
I want my report to run in background becoz it is taking more time in front time....when i have given some selection screen variants and click on F9...it is not going directly to background run...but instead it is executing in the front end and displaying the o/p and then when i click on back(F3) it is showing to enter background run parameters and then execute in background....but i want background to be done..before the frontend...when ever i click F9 it should display the background parameter to enter and execute in background...pls help

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.
PERFORM build_table_for_report.
IF NOT ( gt_reptab1 IS INITIAL ).
CALL SCREEN '0900'.
ENDIF.
This i have wrote in my report...when i comment the AT SELECTION-SCREEN. it is showing my background run first correctly...but if i comment it will it have any side-effects???

CNTL_ERROR while running a custom report program in background mode

Hi,
I am running a report in background on daily basis. I am using cl_gui_custom_container class here and calling the constructor of this class. I am getting a CNTL_ERROR exception at this point. But if i run the same report directly, it is not throwing any exception. The problem is if i schedule it to background. I am not able to sort it out.
I've written the following code below:
I did apply the logic that you'd mentioned.
I've implemented the code as below.
IF gr_container IS INITIAL.
*** Check whether the program is run in batch or foreground
    IF CL_GUI_ALV_GRID=>OFFLINE( ) IS INITIAL.
* Run in foreground
      CREATE OBJECT gr_container
        EXPORTING
          container_name = 'WORK_AREA_CONTAINER'.
      CREATE OBJECT lv_grid
        EXPORTING I_PARENT = gr_container.
    ELSE.
* Run in background
      CREATE OBJECT lv_grid
        EXPORTING
          I_PARENT = gr_dockcontainer.
      ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
i_parent_control = gr_dockcontainer.
        CREATE OBJECT m_base_splitter
        EXPORTING
          parent            = i_parent_control
          ROWS              = 1
          columns           = 2
        EXCEPTIONS
          cntl_error        = 1
          cntl_system_error = 2
          OTHERS            = 3.
        CALL METHOD m_base_splitter->get_container
        EXPORTING
          row       = 1
          column    = 2
          RECEIVING
          container = m_splitter_right_part
        EXCEPTIONS
          OTHERS    = 1.
After I've implemented the above code I'm getting the following error in the batch job:
Category               ABAP Programming Error
Runtime Errors         OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED
Except.                CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL
You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
access a component (variable: "M_BASE_SPLITTER").
An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
before it can be used to access components.
Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the
CLEAR statement.
Would you be able to help me in the above issue?

Hi Alexander,
Yes I'd declared gr_dockcontainer as type ref to CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER. And I've now replaced the previous code and wwrote the below code :
gr_container IS INITIAL.
***Check whether the program is run in batch or foreground
      IF CL_GUI_ALV_GRID=>OFFLINE( ) IS INITIAL.
***Run in foreground
        CREATE OBJECT gr_container
          EXPORTING
            container_name = 'WORK_AREA_CONTAINER'.
        CREATE OBJECT lv_grid
          EXPORTING
            I_PARENT = gr_container.
      ELSE.
***Run in background
        CREATE OBJECT gr_dockcontainer
          EXPORTING
            NAME = 'WORK_AREA_CONTAINER'.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
= gr_dockcontainer.
    CREATE OBJECT m_base_splitter
      EXPORTING
        parent            = i_parent_control
        ROWS              = 1
        columns           = 2
      EXCEPTIONS
        cntl_error        = 1
        cntl_system_error = 2
        OTHERS            = 3.
    CALL METHOD m_base_splitter->get_container
      EXPORTING
        row       = 1
        column    = 2
      RECEIVING
        container = m_splitter_right_part
      EXCEPTIONS
        OTHERS    = 1.
But after implementing the above code I'm facing the same issue of CTRL ERROR- " GUI cannot be reached".
Please guide me through this.

Running the alv report in background and sending it thro email

hi,
      i have to run the alv report in background and send the output through email

Hi
Many a times there is a requirement to display ALV Grid (not ALV List) in the background Job. I have checked the SDN Forum for the same and it has been mentioned that ALV Grid cannot be displayed in Background, but the list output of ALV is possible. So user wont have the actual Grid interface but the List interface.
There is a workaround to display ALV Grid in Background Job. The only restriction is you cant schedule the job through SM36. You need to execute the transaction of the report program, fill in the selection screen data and hit Execute.
The job would be executed in background. User will be able to see the Job Log and Job Status after executing the program. User doesnt have to go to SM37 to view the job status/log. Once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED, user can click on DISPLAY SPOOL to view the ALV Grid.
Limitations:
Cant schedulea background job
The session should be active until the background job is completed. If the session is closed, then user wont be able to check the output in ALV Grid. User would be able to check the output through spool or SM37
Advantages:
If the spool width is greater than 255 characters, then the entire width could be seen in the output because the output is directed to an ALV Grid and not to spool
Interface of ALV Grid is available instead of ALV List even though its a background job.
Program wont give the TIME OUT error
Steps Required:
1. Once you execute the program, the following screen would be displayed
2. Click Display Job Status to check the Status of the Background Job
3. Click on Display the Job Log to check the Log
4. Click on Display Job Status to check the Job Status
5. Click on DISPLAY SPOOL to check the spool content once the Job Status is changed to COMPLETED. Output is displayed in ALV Grid
Programs:
1. Two different programs needs to be created
ZPROGRAM_ONE: This is the 1st program, where the selection screen and all the data validations would be done. Error handling for invalid data should be done in this program.
Once the data validation is done, this program would call the 2nd program ZPROGEAM_TWO. Build the logic to display ALV Grid in this program. The logic will only display ALV in foreground and it wont be reflected in the spool.
ZPROGRAM_TWO: This program would fetch all the data and do all the processing. If you want the spool output along with ALV Grid output, then build the logic in this program to display ALV Grid.

Background processing of S_ALR_87013558 report with output in txt file

Dear Friend's,
Here I have a requirement of, to execute standard report S_ALR_87013558 (Budget/Actual/Commitment/Rem Plan/Assigned) in background processing mode. Here we have to run this report in background on daily basis at a particular given time.
Once this report gets executed in background, output of this report should get converted automatically into txt file and this converted txt file must be downloaded in a respective folder automatically by giving desired path.
After completion of this process, downloaded txt file they have to use for internal MIS reporting purpose.
Is this possible via standard PS or else I have to go for the development.Please suggest, what should be the approach?
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
Check if you can create batch job to run for S_ALR_87013558 using SM36
The Program name is GP8YTY7TBR1TYRPCIPKAC6X9GZG
Please check with ABAP.

Nitin

Background processing for ABAP report with selection screen

Hi ABAP Gurus,
I m facing a strange problem in scheduling a background job for my report with a selection screen. I have a variant for the report.
I scheduled a job, but it seems to be not doing anything though all the system resources are available. The job overview shows "Acive" for the job. The job is neither stopping anything, it is just sitting there In SM50, the status shows "On Hold".
Any ideas/comments on the problem and how this can be overcome?
Qucik replies and solutions will be highly appreciated as this is a crucial part for a go-live project.
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.

Yes. My report has a selection-screen which requires user input. But I have created a variant for the report and trying to run it in background using this variant. But facing this problem.
Strange thing is, instead of the usual SM36/SM37 option where we schedule and monitor background jobs, this option does not work for my report.
But I tried through SE38, and from my selection screen I selected "Schedule background job" and "run immediately" option, and this works. Though I still use SM37 to monitor this background job.
I have never faced such a situation before.
Any hints/tips why this happens and how this can be overcome in the future?
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.

Background Image on a Report Region

Greetings fac586,
Been reading up on CSS's. I guess the main aspect is to determine the CSS component that deals with the Tabular Form in the Template I am using and modify it. I would need to modify the background attribute of the Tabular Fom, right?
Gotta crawl before I walk, so I am also assuming that I would modify the CSS initially with a hard-coded background image. Then, if I get that to work I would make the image dynamic based on the criteria in a database. Am I on the right track?
Is there a common attribute/component in the Apex Template CSS's for Tabular Forms? I've tried to find it, but am not sure what I'm looking for.Tabular forms can be created using any report template—built-in or custom—so the CSS will differ by theme and template.
Yes, you can define background images for report templates, but It's not appropriate to do what you're trying to do at the report template level. Templates are static and defined at design-time. Challenging Apex Page - Grid with 100+ items - Suggestions Needed. This needs to be dynamic and determined at run-time.

How to run a bex report in backround

All,
Could anybody tell me how to schedule a bacround job to run a bex report. It would be great if i could email the results also,
I appreciate any help with points,
Regards,
Mike

A reporting agent (RSREP TC) is replaced by broadcaster in 7.0, but what both do is execute the query in background and put it in cache and you try to access the cache when you execute the web template which is techinically a query.
thanks.

SSRS - A Subreport background image is overridden by background image of parent report

Hello. I have a background image on my parent report and a different background image for my sub reports. The background image of my sub reports are instead inheriting the background image of the parent report. I've researched and found nobody talking about
this. All my images are embedded.
Is there away around this?
Thanks,
James
James

For both the parent report and the sub report, I right clicked the Images folder in the Report Data section and embedded the images in the rdl. The parent report has an embedded image called watermark. The child report has an embedded image called subreportwatermark.
In the parent report, I added the following to the report properties:
In the child report, I added the following to the body properties:
Yes, I use an expression to determine whether to use the watermark or nothing based on a field of a dataset as you see above in both Value properties of both the report properties of the parent report and the body properties of the child sub report.
If I run the sub report only in the BIDS solution for a child row that has Y for watermark value, the sub report's subreportwatermark does show.
If I run the sub report only in the BIDS solution for a child row that has N for watermark value, the watermark does not show.
So far so good.
If I run the parent report in the BIDS solution for a parent row that has Y for watermark value, I don't get what I
expect. Here is the scenario. Five pages are produced. One for the parent, and one each for the sub report.
Parent Row - Watermark Y
Child Row 1 - Watermark Y
Child Row 1 - Watermark N
Child Row 1 - Watermark N
Child Row 1 - Watermark Y
What I expect to see.
Page 1 - Parent Report's watermark should display.
Page 2 - Child Sub Report's subreportwatermark should display.
Page 3 - Child Sub Report's - No watermark at all.
Page 4 - Child Sub Report's subreportwatermark should display.
Page 5 - Child Sub Report's - No watermark at all.
To be clear. I should NEVER expect to see the parent report's watermark on pages 2 - 5.
What was the actual result? This is what I see in BIDS when I click the preview tab in
Print Layout.
Page 1 - Parent Report's watermark displayed.
Page 2 - Child Sub Report - Parent Report's watermark displayed.
Page 3 - Child Sub Report - Parent Report's watermark displayed.
Page 4 - Child Sub Report - Parent Report's watermark displayed.
Page 5 - Child Sub Report - Parent Report's watermark displayed.
This is what I see in BIDS when I click the preview tab in View
Layout.
Page 1 - Parent Report. No watermark displays.
Page 2 - Child Sub Report - Child Report's subreportwatermark displayed.
Page 3 - Child Sub Report - No watermark.
Page 4 - Child Sub Report - Child Report's subreportwatermark displayed.
Page 5 - Child Sub Report - No watermark.
Both the print layout and view layout is wrong. What matters is what prints or is saved to a pdf. What prints and gets saved to a PDF is the Print Layout view.
If you want, we can swap rdls. Can you send me your rdls?
You can find my rdls at:

Run Character mode reports in Menu/forms.

Hi,
we are using ora-dev-suite 10g and trying to Run Character mode reports in Menu/forms and output ascii text or pdf files generated and saved in local/client PC's.
report when run through report builder, it is ok.
But we are not able to run these reports through menus/forms. can we run these reports using background report engine on a click of button.
pl.guide us.
thanks.

Hello,
You can put a variable in your default.env file like SERVER_URL http://<yourserver>:<yourport> and then retrieve it in forms with the tool_env.getvar package
declare v_server_url varchar2(100);
begin
tool_env.getvar(SERVER_URL,v_server_url);
/* then launch your report */
web.show_document(v_server_url||'/reports/rwservlet?yourparameters.....');
end;So if you deploy your form in server 1 or 2 you only have to change the value in the default.env file according to the server you use.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Jean-Yves

Run a BW Report(Query) from R/3

Hi All,
Is there really a way to run a BW Report report from R/3? I have come across a lot of articles explaining ways to convert an R/3 report to BW and so on. But have never heard about doing it vice-versa.
My scenario, to be exact, is to run a BW report from R/3 as a scheduled background job.
Please share what you all know.
Thanks,
Mahesh M.S.

Thank you very much for your valuable help, i checked your suggestion and looks great. But i need to pass 3 parameters from an ABAP to the wad query report.
How can i pass the parameters to the web template???
another issue: My WAS (Web Application Server 6.20) is not public, is currently working for a local area network.
The access to this report is from outside of the office, so we need to access this through the PORTAL.

Urgent.....Error while running a jsp report from Jdeveloper

Hi,
I am getting following error while running a jsp report from Jdeveloper. I am using version 10.1.2.1.0. The same report is working fine when I am running it from report builder. ( Both these tools were installed using Oracle Developer Suite 10g version 10.1.2). I did search in oracle discussion forums and google, but I could not arrive at a resolution of error. Any help in resolving this issue would be grateful.

Hi Praveen,
Seems the issue is with the rdf. Check whether all the parameters are passed correctly.

Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

Hi,
Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
*"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
*"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.
