Easy Job Scheduling Using BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE</b>
To schedule a job from within a program using the express method, you need only call the BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE function module.
The express method has the following characteristics:
Simplified job structure: The function module schedules a job that includes only a single job step.
The function module uses default values for most job-processing options. You cannot, for example, specify a target printer as part of the call to the function module. Instead, the job step uses the print defaults of the scheduling user.
Only ABAP reports can be scheduled. You must use the "full-control" method to start external programs.
The range of start-time options is restricted. Event-based scheduling is not supported.
The function module works as follows:
You name the report that is to be scheduled in your call to the function module.
The function module displays a list of variants to the user. The user must select a variant for the report.
You must ensure that the variants required by your users have already been defined.
The user picks either "immediate start" or enters a start date and start time. Optionally, the user can also make the job restart periodically. The job is then scheduled.
Example
You could use the following code to let users schedule report RSTWGZS2 for checking on the status of online documentation:
call function 'BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE'
exporting
title_name = 'Documentation Check' " Displayed as title of
" of scheduling screens
job_name = 'DocuCheck' " Name of background
" processing job
prog_name = 'RSTWGZS2' " Name of ABAP
" report that is to be
" run -- used also to
" select variants
exceptions
no_such_report = 01. " PROG_NAME program
" not found.
call function 'BP_JOBVARIANT_OVERVIEW' " List the jobs that
exporting " have been scheduled
title_name = 'Documentation Check' " Displayed as title
" of overview screen
job_name = 'DokuCheck' " Jobs with this name
" are listed
prog_name = 'RSTWGZS2'
exceptions
no_such_job = 01.

How can i run my java program in background process?

hi all,
i am working on desktop monitoring so when i start my program on client machine that is visible to all but i want this program client not visible to all instead of this can be run in background process . so, nobody can see that.
so, how i can do this ?
pls pls help me
thanks in advanced to helper
regards
maulik & ritesh

this will run the java program in the background.It'll just use the Windows Java Console instead of the command-line console. It has nothing to do with running as a background process.
Edit: though this might be exactly what the OP wants: not "background process" but "no DOS console".

4. On the 'Create Step 1' dialog box, give the name of the ABAP program in the 'ABAP Program' section' along with the variant.
5. Click on 'Check Input' button from the dialog box.
6. Click on 'Save' button from the dialog box once the check is successful.
7. One list will be shown. Click on Back button from the standard toolbar.

Failed to Run OLE Excel program in background JOB (SM36)

Please help.
I have write a program to use OLE to create a Excel file.
The program can run successful in front end workstation. However, when I run the program in background job by SM36.
The statement "CREATE OBJECT EXCEL 'EXCEL.APPLICATION'" return with error "SY-SUBRC = 2".
How can I solve it ?
Can OLE Excel be run on background job ?
Thanks so much,
Mark

Hi Mark:
Your need is a very common one. I also was asked to generate an Excel in Background.
It is not possible to work with OLE in background mode.
The reason is: In background mode there is no presentation server. OLE is executed in presentation server.
Below I paste the code I wrote to solve my problem.
This class sends a mail with an excel attached. The Excel content will be the internal table you pass to the class. But the Excel is not binary, it is a plain text file, separated by tabulators. Anyway, when you open it with Excel, the columns are properly shown.
Sorry. Comments are in spanish, I don't have time to translate it.
I kindly ask to everybody which want to use it to keep my name in the code.

How can I run a method as a background process?

Hello,
I am currently working on a report where depending on the number of items selected, the user may choose to process all the items right now or as a background process.
How can I do that in ABAP?
Thanks

To run a job in the background it has to be scheduled as batch job. You would usually do that using transaction SM36. As I understand your problem you want to schedule such a job directly from your coding. You may want to have a look at function group BTCH. It overs quite a few FMs to programmatically add a batch job.

Daniel

Run a java program in background

Hi, I am implementing a bot that's supposed to do something when it receives mesages. My question is how I can make the program keep running. I guess the idea of threading would help but I just dunno how to do it. some hints will be appreciated. I dun wanna put a while(true){} there it just takes too much CPU time. I have some Listeners that will do something when some event happens.
examples will be helpful.

I am implementing a bot that's supposed to do something when it receives mesages.Which way does it receive a message? You could run the program in background. It would block on an incoming message. If it listens a socket, you can use
java.net.ServerSocket's accept()
which will block until a connection request arrives.

How to lock running of abap program?

Hi Friends,
I want to lock my abap program. So, I want to provide that my program can be once at any time. And I need to unlock my program. Is there any functions that do my requests?

HI Nail.
YOu can set a flag in a ztable with date and time stamp.
In the at selection-screen event, do this.
at selection-screen.
select single * from ztab where repid = sy-repid.
if ztab-run_date = sy-datum.
if sy-ucomm = 'ONLI'.
message a000(zz) 'YOu cannot run this program'.
endif.
endif.
end-of-selection.
ztab-repid = sy-repid.
ztab-run_date = sy-datum.
modify ztab from ztab.

Is there any way to run signcode.exe program under background mode

Hi everyone,
I am finding the solutions to build the project automatically but the situation is still unchanged. When building the project i have use the signcode tool to sign my .cab files therefore the system shows me the "Enter Private Key Password" dialog and ask me to enter my password into the Password field.
If all you guy have any ways for packing the project by the mechanism of the running signcode program under background mode. Below is my script.
[b]signcode -spc ms.spc -v ms.pvk -n abc.cab -i URL -t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll abc.cab
Thank you for your ideas and regards
Tan

Hi,
you can use the tool signcode-pwd to automate the signing:
