BAP Log/Error Report in case of Background Job

Hi Friends,
I have to develop one program where I am creating purchase orders using BAPI. This Program would be scheduled in background
hence the Error/log report can not be seen .I have been told to use SAP Application Log for getting the Error Report.
How this can be achieved using SAP Application log functionality. Any Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Incorrect. How are you displaying your error / log report ?
Even if you use simple WRITE statements to display the log, the details would be there in the corresponding spool generated.

How to avoid use of function module in case of background jobs?

Hi ,
I am working a file tranfer interface .Functionality is to extract file either apllication or presentation server , and process the file through bapi , send the result in their respective server. This program should run through batch jobs in background mode.
I am using following function module :
SUBST_GET_FILE_LIS : Get the file list from application server
TMP_GUI_DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES : Get the file list from presentation server
GUI_UPLOad : to extract file data from presentation server
GUI_downLOAD : to download data to presentation server
in case of background job these function modules will not work.... so how to resolve this issue...
what are the methods we can apply?
Thanks & Regards
Sandeep

Hi,
This FM is used to get list of files from Application server (will work in Background). This cannot be used to list files from presentation server. There is no way , by which you can process presentation server files in background mode.

Reg: Error in Mail sending through background job in SCOT

Hello experts,
I am trying to schedule a background job through SCOT so as to send the mails present in SOST.
The job is running but it is giving error as "Invalid status for recipient" in SOST.
But when I am sending it directly from SOST it is delivered without any errors. The email address is maintained correctly and SMTP settings are also correct as while sending it directly from SOST it reaches the required recipient without any error.
This error is observed only through background job. I am using program RSCONN01 with variant SAP&CONNECTINT in background job.
Kindly suggest why I am getting the error "Invalid status for recipient" in background job.
Thanks & Regards

Error after a scheduling a background job

Hi all,
I'm trying to schedule an interface program in background which reads data from application server and posts a document in Finance through a BAPI funtion module.But after scheduling the job in the immediate mode,its getting canceled showing the error
"Could not ascertain code page"
"Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE" in the job log.
Please help me with this...
thanks

Hi ,
To decode the reason behind job failure , use ST22 Tcode with Exception Name as ERROR_MESSAGE ( as that is what is given in the Job log ) and User - SAP Logon Id
This would give the system dump log and tell you where exactly the job failed .
Please note this applies for any background job and is not specific for your case .
Do have a look at the dump in future ...
Thanks

Error when running SWN_SELSEN as background job.

Hello Gurus,
I am facing a typical problem these days.
The background job for program SWN_SELSEN is scheduled in every 5 mins. It has started to fail intermittently with the error message 'An instance of the report SWN_SELSEN is still active'. But the stange thing is that the program completes its execution in approx. 12 - 15 secs then why this kind of error it is throwing.
This error message should not come as the program completes itself in 12- 15 secs and it has more than 4 mins as free time.
Please help as this kind of failure is happenning quite frequently i.e. once in nearly every three times it executes. In a day around 100 times.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I assume you've checked in SM37 to see how often it actually runs and whether perhaps two instances have been scheduled?
Also check the log in SLG1 to see if there is any clue there.

Spool report line width in background jobs

Hi All,
I wrote a report and specified the line size in the report header:
REPORT /sappssrm/option_handler
NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING
LINE-SIZE 185.
I want to run this report as background job and get a spool list with results of the report. I expected the width of the spool output to be well defined and it works in one system. However, in another systen, the line / page width is much smaller, and the system inserts line breaks in the output splitting my lines into two which causes very ugly results.
It seems that the LINE-SIZE specified in the report header doesn't affect the output width in every system.
Can anyone advice?
Regards
Wolfgang

Hi Siggi,
thanks for your reply. Actually I changed that already yesterday...
But I found out what it was:
It seems, the background job keeps old versions of the program, even if you import a new program version. I created a new job with the same program and it worked.
Thanks again and best regards
Wolfgang

Report layout - ME2N - Automatic background job

HI all
We are using the above report for Pending PO-RElease ie., dynamic selection - release indicator "B" thru automatic background programme schedueld thru SM36 (after setting the variant) for the relevant/concerned users.
The issue is, the report layout be default standard sap layout is taking, actually i have saved layout as PO no & date, but always, whenever background job is run, default sap report is taken in HTML.
request kindly help how i can ensure my our report layout for backgrounds jobs thru ME2N or is there any other report which can give the pending PO-Release report for my requirement.
thanks in advance
regards
srihari

I am doing same as suggested by you for all other reports, but i am not successful with ME2N, because after having your own default layout, but for background it is default taking sap report. even i have tried to delete the sap - std report format but not allowed.
if any one knows how to change the sap-default std report layout then also it's okay for us, as default report as 15 columns whereas we need only max 5 columns in report layout
thanx in advance
regards
srihari

Emailing the report to external email - Background job

HI
We are creating background job for running the report in background...but i want the output(report) to send an email in Excel format after the job run successfully...
Here the email is External email not SAP inbox..
Do you have any idea how to achieve this? any user-exit or even handling will help this?
Please let me know
Thanks
Govi

Iam not using custom program to send the email...I know about the FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1...to send email.
My requirement is to send email to user the report in Excel after the background job runs.
we will define the job in SM36 with variant for the report with program name and variant.
after the job runs the spool request will be created and we can also setup the output of the report to be sent to SAP inbox.
my question is to how to send the output of this report in Excel format to external email i.e. Gmail, yahoo etc...
I hope u r clear now...
Please let me know if you know the answer.
Thanks

Error in ALV list at background job

Hello,
I am executing one custom report in bckground with layout 'Z_65_400'.After executed, it created spool.If we will try to look the output by using our spool, the layout is truncating.Here , in SP01. based on our spool, in menu bar->GOTO->REQUEST ATTRIBUTES->In this screen, it is showing X_65_255'Format. I tried all basic ways to resolve the issue.I am thinking that this is coming due to 'SAPKB62064(SAP_BASIS).I tried in sap service market place also.Could you please give the solution in detail .
Thanks and Regards

Hi NTR,
Pass the error records into a separate internal table and append them. once the Background processing was completed then loop on that error internal table and list them in the Basiclist for the identification.

Error message supercedes output in background job.

Hi,
When I run my ALV report in foreground, the output (of several pages) is correctly presented, and upon clicking "BACK", the screen displays the authorization message "Personnel numbers skipped by database driver : ... Reason 1 : insufficient authorization, no. skipped personnel nos : .." which is expected, as the user is subjected to authorization granted to the user.
However, when I run the job in background and upon completion, the spool shows only 1 page, i.e. the authorization message above is displayed on the spool output, and the report/output list result is suppressed. Is there a way to get the output of the report instead of the authorization message above ?
Thank you.
Regards
Kir Chern

Kir,
This is a common problem which everyone faces when running such reports with Error messages in the background. Any error message that encounters in the background mode would make the job to fail.
So, what you can do develop your own message class and give the error messages as Information messages. But, as you told that you are running it on PNP Database and you cannot have access to change it I dont think there is another way to achieve this.
Anyways,
Try to check the below link
