Generate Spool for a report

Hi,
I am asked to develop a program that will run a report with a variant and then return a spool number for the run.
I'm assuming this can be done in background? The program however needs to wait for the spool number.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Tyken

HI ,
Try this code, Hope it helps.

How can we stop generating spools for some batch jobs?

HI guys,
Is memory will be occupied in SAP during spool generation from batch jobs ?
If yes, to reduce occupied memory, we want to stop generating spools for few batch jobs. Please suggest me the way how we can acheive this.(Step details)
Please help me.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sahil

Stopping the spool generation for background jobs will not help you to reduce the memory load.
First check what is the total memory utilization and type of processes where the memory is being utilized more.
EWA can give you better idea to get the above details.
Spooling concept doesn't eat that much of memory what you are expecting.

Not Generating Spool for my user id

Initially when i run the transaction CO02 and printing the production order, spool was generating properly. so in next day due to some issues i changed the print program or adobe form then spool was not generating to my user id only, if i print with any other user id i am able to see the spool , so what is the problem for my user id, could any one help in this scenario.

Hi,
Adding to Ashwin's point there can be another possibility, go to tcode SU3 and in Defeaults tab check and compare the Spool control Section between your login and the other user login.
Check if the check box 'Output immediatly' is selected or not.

Generated Query for Interactive Report

Hi folks
I am getting an error in an Interactive Report: "Column ambiguously defined".
This cannot have been triggered by the columns selected to appear in the report. Where can I see the query generated by the report after all the user-defined edits on the original query?
Regards
CS

Hi Chris,
I'm not sure what version it became available, but in later versions you can enable debugging at the application level and then view the debugging information when running the application as a developer. This gives you information on the actual query issued by Apex.

Generate spool req number for report output list

Hi,
How to generate spool request number for report output list while executing the report.Please provide if you have any sample code.
Thanks and Regards,
BSR.

HI srinivas,
welcome to sdn.
Exporting the Contents of a Spool Request
Use
You want to export the content of a spool request in one of the following ways:
·        As a text file to the SAP GUI working directory
·        Unconverted or as a table, RTF, or HTML to a directory of your choice
·        As a PDF file to a directory of your choice
Procedure
Follow the procedure below:
Exporting to the SAP GUI Working Directory
If you are exporting large quantities of data, downloading the spool request as a text file to the SAP GUI working directory is a good solution.
Choose Spool Request ® Forward® Export as Text.
The entire text is stored in your SAP GUI working directory in ASCII format.
A file of this type is named using the following pattern:
.txt
Example: ABC0000004327.txt
You require appropriate authorization for this function from your administrator.
Exporting Unconverted or as a table, RTF, or HTML to a Directory of Your Choice
With this method of exporting a spool request, the content of the spool request is first displayed, and you then download the content in the format of your choice to a directory of your choice.
       1.      Select the spool request to be exported and choose Display Contents.
       2.      In the case of SAPscript/Smart Forms documents, activate list display by choosing Goto.
       3.      Choose System ® List ® Save ® Local File.
       4.      Choose one of the available formats and confirm your choice.
       5.      Choose a directory and save the spool request.
By default, only the first 10 pages of a spool request are saved in a file. You can increase the number of pages to be saved by choosing Goto ® Display Requests ® Settings and making the desired entries in the Display Area group box.
Exporting as a PDF File
You want to export the contents of a spool request as a PDF file to a directory of your choice, and print the file as required. The PDF file contains the print data in the format in which it would be output by the printer.
The following procedure is irrelevant for the printing of PDF-based forms, since a PDF file is already returned with this method. See also Displaying and Printing PDF-Based Forms.
You also require authorization from your administrator to run this report.
The PDF file is generated as follows with report RSTXPDFT4:
       1.      Generate a spool request from the document to be printed.
       2.      In transaction SE38, start report rstxpdft4.
       3.      In the displayed window, enter the spool request number and the directory in which the PDF file is to be stored.
Leave the Download PDF File option selected.
Choose Execute.
       4.      In the next window, you can confirm or change the path in which the file is be stored.
Save your entries.
       5.      The system displays a log from which you can see whether the report was successfully performed.
You can then open the file from the directory and print it as required.
Restrictions for Exporting as a PDF File
·        The PDF conversion only supports true bar codes for Smart Forms, which were generated with the new bar code technology as of SAP NetWeaver 04. In all other cases, the bar code is only simulated.
·        PDF conversion, especially of ABAP lists, is slower and is therefore not suitable for mass printing. However, you can speed up the conversion to PDF using the FASTLISTCONV option in report RSTXPDF3.
·        The font selection for ABAP lists is predefined in the PDF converter and cannot be changed.
For more information about constraints, see SAP Note 323736 in the SAP Service Marketplace

Hello,
Can you explain the problem in detail plz.
I do see that the logic which was proposed is implemented in code.
please check at various places, in run time the following points:
1. Spool ID exported into ABAP Memory.
2. Contents of the Main OTF IntTab.
3. Conversion of the Spool to PFD.Check whether SUBRC = 0. Un-comment all the Exceptions in your FMs where-ever you make a call in your program.
 If this conversion of Spool to PDF is successful, you can choose "Append" option from the popup.
Hope this helps you. Or if you have any specific query let me know.
Regards, Murugesh AS

Regarding running a report in background and generate spool

Hi,
I am developing a report [REPORT1].
It is taking long to execute if data is more.
Now i want to schedule this report in background and generate spool along with.
So once i execute REPORT1 it should run in background & generate spool?
Can anybody give inputs for the same!
Thanks,
Deep.

Hi,
to generate spool, use below code
FORM create_spool .
CONSTANTS : l_c_device(4) VALUE 'LOCL'.
Create Spool Request
NEW-PAGE PRINT ON
LINE-SIZE 120
DESTINATION l_c_device
IMMEDIATELY ' '
KEEP IN SPOOL 'X'
NEW LIST IDENTIFICATION 'X'
NO DIALOG.
ENDFORM. " create_spool
And after createing spool to get the spool number use below code,
FORM obtain_spool_id .
TYPES : BEGIN OF t_tsp01,
rqident TYPE tsp01-rqident,
rqowner TYPE tsp01-rqowner,
END OF t_tsp01.
DATA : it_tsp01 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_tsp01,
wa_tsp01 LIKE LINE OF it_tsp01.
SELECT rqident
rqowner
FROM tsp01
INTO TABLE it_tsp01
WHERE rqowner = sy-uname.
SORT it_tsp01 BY rqident DESCENDING.
READ TABLE it_tsp01 INTO wa_tsp01 INDEX 1.
IF sy-subrc = 0 .
v_spool_nr = wa_tsp01-rqident.
ENDIF.
Capture the immediate spool created for this report
v_spool_nr = sy-spono.
ENDFORM. " obtain_spool_id
