ALV List export to Excel when program is run in background

Hello,
I am running into an issue with a custom ALV report which contains an export to Excel option on the input screen. However, when I attempt to run the report in background due to high volume of records/expected performance constraints, the job fails to produce a spool when the "export to Excel" option is selected. When I deselect that option, the background job successfully generates a spool, which I can then export to Excel (albeit the formatting will not look the same).
Is the above an accurate statement or does anyone know of a way where either;
1) The background job can create and store the Excel output into a cached directory?
2) The spool generated, when exported to Excel, can match the format of the foreground Excel output?
Thanks in advancce.

Is it possible to download to excel when a report running in background

Dear All,
I tried to execute one ALV report in foreground and background. In foreground the report is giving excel download but in background no excel download is coming. Is there any specific reason for that?
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Atanu dey,
If you wnat to download excel in back ground
You have to download in application server only.
EX:
DATA : v_filepath(80)     VALUE '/data/sapdata/inc/error_log/pme_br/',
c_coma     VALUE ',' .
OPEN DATASET v_filepath FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
     LOOP AT i_errors_bat.
     CONCATENATE i_errors_bat-plant c_coma
                             i_errors_bat-zzvendor c_coma
                       INTO v_string.
        TRANSFER v_string TO v_filepath.
      ENDLOOP.
   CLOSE DATASET v_filepath.
Note : you can download in presentation server also.
but it requires lot of authorizations and have to use
FTP commands.
Reason is Apllication server in back ground has to
recognize the from which system request came.
Better go for OPEN DATA sets.

How to download file to local system when report is run in background?

Hello all,
Can anybody tell me how can we donwload file into local machin when the program is running in background?
thanks

Hi,
We can't communicate with presentation server while processing in background.
if needed we can do this by creating RFC destination and doing some setting in Desktop system.

Getting the variant name when the report program is run in background

Hi All,
How to get the variant name for the report program when run in background? My requirement is to create an email attachement with the name 'variant.XLS', where variant = selection screen variant, when the report program is run in background. The system field SY-SLSET holds the variant name only when run online.
Any pointers to this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Nilesh.

Hello Nilesh,
Please find the algo:
1. Call the FM: GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO to get the background job details.
2. Select data from TBTCP using these details:
DATA:
FP_EVENTID   TYPE BTCEVENTID
FP_EVTPARM   TYPE BTCEVTPARM
FP_ACTIVE    TYPE BTCXPGFLAG
FP_JOBCNT    TYPE BTCJOBCNT
FP_JOBNM     TYPE BTCJOB
FP_STEPCNT   TYPE BTCSTEPCNT.
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO'
    IMPORTING
      EVENTID                 = FP_EVENTID
      EVENTPARM               = FP_EVTPARM
      EXTERNAL_PROGRAM_ACTIVE = FP_ACTIVE
      JOBCOUNT                = FP_JOBCNT
      JOBNAME                 = FP_JOBNM
      STEPCOUNT               = FP_STEPCNT
    EXCEPTIONS
      NO_RUNTIME_INFO         = 1
      OTHERS                  = 2.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
*   Error calling FM: GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO
ENDIF.
DATA: FP_VARIANT TYPE BTCVARIANT.
SELECT JOBNAME JOBCOUNT STEPCOUNT VARIANT
FROM   TBTCP
INTO TABLE L_IT_TBTCP
WHERE JOBNAME   = FP_JOBNM
AND    JOBCOUNT = FP_JOBCNT
AND    STEPCOUNT = FP_STEPCNT.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    SORT L_IT_TBTCP BY JOBNM JOBCNT STEPCNT.
    READ TABLE L_IT_TBTCP INTO L_WA_TBTCP INDEX 1.
    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
      FP_VARIANT = L_WA_TBTCP-VARIANT.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
Hope this helps.

ABAP program to run in Background job

Hi,
We have a custumized program (SO Creation) calling some functions (like: WS_QUERY, WS_UPLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD, CREATE_TEXT and CALL TRANSACTION VA01) and can only run thru dialog process (foreground). Is it possible to convert it to something that can run thru background job?
Please help.
Thanks.

Hi Deo ,
Unfortunately cl_gui_frontend_services will not work in background.
Please have a look at following information about cl_gui_frontend_services :
The class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES contains static methods for the following areas:
File functions
Directory functions
Registry
Environment
Write to / read from clipboard
Upload / download files
Execute programs / open documents
Query functions, such as Windows directory, Windows version, and so on
Standard dialogs (open, save, directory selection)
To Use this, you should be bit familier with OO ABAP Concepts. So I will suggest you to go through with OO concepts of ABAP. It will be of great help to you.

How to reopen window in a program which runs in background

Hello,
I created a program, which runs in the background(when you start it, doesn't open a window). It has a notify icon and by double click opens a window. I open the window with ShowDialog() method. After I close it, I cannot reopen it. It says: "Cannot
set Visibility or call Show or ShowDialog after window has closed". What should I do?
Thanks!

When you say you can't re-open it.
Exactly what are you doing to show and hide it?
And what do you do to show it again?
Actually, I can probably guess roughly what you're doing.
Are you trying to show a window you closed without instantiating it again?
Are you effectively doing something like:
Window win = new MainWindow();
win.Show(); ....
win.Close();
win.Show();
Because you should do
Window win = new MainWindow();
win.Show();...
win.Hide();
win.Show();
Once you close it, that's it you're done with that window. It's on the garbage heap waiting for the garbage collector to come along and recycle it.
It is no more.
Either hide() rather than close() or instantiate a new object each time.
Hope that helps.

How to Identify program is running in background or Foreground mode?

Hello Experts,
I have developed on Z report and from this report BDC for Transaction CO11 is runnning using CALL TRANSACTION statement.
On Selection screen there is a option for selecting the BDC mode either in Background or Forground or Error mode.
My question is:- how do I recognize this selected BDC mode in the function exit ZXMBCU02.
This exit triggers when transaction CO11 runs.
Because based on the selected BDC mode i have to apply some logic in this exit.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Jagesh

Hi Jagesh...
You can do the following..
1. Export the Batch Input Mode in to ABAP memory using the EXPORT statement.
2. Import that value in the user exit.
3. To execute your code only if its batch input mode, use the field SY-BINPT.
You can also check if this structure "BDCRUN" is used in that program, b'cas this is contained in the VA01 an VA02 transacation, this would contain all the data.
CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_RUNNING'
       IMPORTING
            bi_info = bi_info
       EXCEPTIONS
            OTHERS = 1.
bi_info will contain all the data.
GET PARAMETER ID 'SD_BACKGROUND_DEBUG' FIELD background_debug.

You can put a lock on the program inside the program, so that when it is run it puts a lock entry in SM12, then anyone trying to run it will get a message saying that the program is locked. USe the TRDIR lock object.

Why don't you just manually click them on in edit mode, then make the current values default and save the VI?

Internet Explorer won't let Firefox download. When I click Run, it tells me it's timed out when it reaches 99%

Just bought new laptop and can't install Firefox. The program will run until it gets to 99% completion, then Internet Explorer pops up and says it's timed out.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files.
You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

How to see if invisible program is running in background?

Hello,
I'm trying to help my friend who has an iMac running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Her email and Facebook keep getting "hacked", and even though she changes the passwords to long and complex things that nobody could ever guess, someone is still able to figure out her passwords. The only way we think this could be happening is if someone broke into her home and put some type of "keystroke capture" program so that they could look at it while she's at work and get her passwords that way. We simply can not come up with any other way that her passwors are being discovered, and unfortunately we think it's a jealous ex-wife that is doing this.
I seem to recall in Snow Leopard that there is a way to see what is running in order to see how much memory is being taken by each task or program on the computer, but I don't recall where to go on the computer to monitor that information. Can someone please point me to where that information is, and if you have any other advice on how to check to see if a program is running without her knowledge, I would sure appreciate any input.
Thank you very much!

Great---thank you very much. I actually do recognize everything there, so we are baffled as to what's going on.
Thanks again!
