How to run 2 reports to send 1 PDF e-mail attachment instead of 2 e-mails.

I used 9i Reports to create 2 reports in a PDF format. I run these reports from a 9i form using the web.show_document command. XML is used to send the 2 e-mails with the reports.
Is there a way I can combine the running of the reports to make one PDF to created 1 e-mail attachment or run the reports at the same time and attach 2 PDF files to 1 e-mail.
I have no problems running 1 report and sending 1 e-mail attacment!
This is example of the XML used in creating the e-mail:
- <destinations>
- <foreach>
- <file id="Test" name="REPORT_1.pdf" format="pdf" instance="XXXX">
<include src="report" />
</file>
</foreach>
- 
- <mail id="ex1" to="&DESNAME" from="&DESNAME" subject="&DESNAME;*;&p_postal_number: was submitted for
approval on &p_postal_date">
<body srcType="text">This is to notify you of a new submission that requires an approval before being
sent to out. Please use the URL link below to review the information as soon as possible.
https://xxxx.aaaa.sss.com:234/web_html/static.html AAAA Administrator</body>
- <attach format="pdf" name="Report_1&.pdf" srcType="report">
<include src="mainSection" />
</attach>
</mail>
</destinations>

You can use iText to combine two PDF files into one.

How to run GR55 reports in background for cost center hierarchies

1. I have been asked by our users to create batch jobs to run in the background for some GR55 reports, that can then be sent directly to cost center managers via email.
I have figured out the process to do this as long as the cost center manager only needs to see a single cost center at a time. However, if they are in charge of multiple cost centers, we also want to send them a summarized report using the hierarchy we have set up. I can't seem to make this work, as the job only seem to recognize the last cost center in the group and the report is for that cost center.
Example. cost centers 100, 200 and 300 belong to hierarchy abc. If I run the job just for cost center 100 it is fine. But if I have a variant to run hierarchy abc, or even if I use the range 100 to 300, all I get is a report for cost center 300.
We cannot use BW because we only have revenue in BW. I am being asked to make this work from standard R/3 within the GR55 realm of reporting.
2. In addition, the report selection criteria includes two separate plan/forecast versions. They need to update these each month prior to running the reports and sending them out. I looked at the variables associated with the versions and tried to set them up with default values that I hoped would update automatically so that they don't have to manually change 50 or so variants each month. But I don't see any dynamic variables that I can use to have the system make that change without going into each variant individually.
3. There is another piece to this equation as well. There is another report they want sent out in batch, but it is several pages wide in SAP and several pages long. So when you run it in batch and either spool it or get it sent as an email, it is very ugly in the formatting due to all the page splits horizontally and vertically. If anyone knows how to get the report to stay together like it would if you had excel integration turned on, it would be very helpful. I have tried running it with that integration turned on, but the jobs are set up with user batch_mgr and not my id, so it isn't working well. The batch_mgr id is just a system id, not a dialog id. We also don't want the jobs set up with a regular user id because if people leave, then the jobs all need to be changed.

Kim,
I may have options for issues 1 and 2. In case of 3, what I can tell you is I understand the concern, but this is what typically happens in some standard CO reports that are not ALV compatible, I don't think there is not much there to do unless you add some custom code for the output.
In regards to point 1, yes, I have noticed that this happens in some standard and custom reporting, not sure what is going on. I came up with a work around that made the trick for my client in a similar scenario; which is editing the cost center groups. For instance, instead of having the group set as a range from 100 to 300, the groups are have listed the cost centers, 100, 200 and 300. Obviously, the disadvantage of this option is that it would require a bit of more cost center group maintenance.
In regards to point 2, I understand from your note that your users already have set up selection variants for the report. One option for you is to get the help from a developer to create a custom period variable and tiny program that runs in batch every month that would update that variable accordingly. Once that's done, you may have to update at least once, the selection variant attributes to change the period to a selection variable, so everytime from that point of time forward that the variable gets updated, it will be ready with the right value for every selection variant that uses it.
Hope this helps.

How to Run a Report automatically in Background for every night

Hi,
How to run a report program in Background automatically for every nigh.
Thanks
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
You can use SM36 and use the "Job Wizard" to define a background job in simple step by step procedure
Or
Goto SM37 and specify a job name.
Next specify the ABAP Program Name of the report you want to execute under Job Step.
Then click on "Extended Job Selection" and goto the Period Tab.
There select "Only Periodic Jobs" and then specify the frequency of execution based on Months, Weeks, Days, Hours or Minutes.
Hope this helps,

How to run a report in back ground

how to run a report in background with out using job open, submit , close is there any other function module to run report in background.

Hi,
There are two ways for you to handle,
one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,
secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.
Find below steps in doing both:
Procedure 1:
1. Goto Trans -> SM36
2. Define a job with the program and variant if any
3. Click on start condition in application tool bar
4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time
5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"
6. Next click on Period Values
7. Select "Other Period"
8. Now give '15' for Minutes
9. Save the job
Procedure 2 via Program:
Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.
DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,
L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
IMPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_CREATE_JOB = 1
INVALID_JOB_DATA = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
OTHERS = 4.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
SUBMIT ZTEMP2 VIA JOB 'ZTEMP2' NUMBER P_JOBCNT
TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
WITH DESTINATION = 'HPMISPRT'
WITH IMMEDIATELY = SPACE
WITH KEEP_IN_SPOOL = 'X' AND RETURN.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
EXPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
STRTIMMED = 'X'
PRDMINS = 15
IMPORTING
JOB_WAS_RELEASED = L_RELEASE
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_START_IMMEDIATE = 1
INVALID_STARTDATE = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
JOB_CLOSE_FAILED = 4
JOB_NOSTEPS = 5
JOB_NOTEX = 6
LOCK_FAILED = 7
INVALID_TARGET = 8
OTHERS = 9.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

ENDIF.
Hope the above helps you.

From this Function u can determine

After this u can determine size of DIM table:

In order to determine how many Bytes are in one row,
u can see transaction se11 -> Database table -> Tabkle name of DIM -> Display -> Fields -> just add the length*Bytes for all fields in this table.

Hi Ajith !!
Please refer this link :
http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/rep_spooltopdf.htm
Here a spool output is converted into PDF and then sent as an email.
I think instead of using FM to change the width, try the logic mentioned in the link.
Also instead of FM CONVERT_TO_OTF use :
1. CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF
I hope this should solve the problem.
I had referred the same program from the link and it worked absolutely fine. Also check the adobe acrobat version, i guess old version doesnt support SAP, though not very sure.
Best regards,
Prashant

Sending a pdf with mail that is directly seen by opening the mail?possible?

hello,
I want to send a pdf by Mail but I would like the receiver to click on my email and that he/she will see the complete pdf immediately.
is that possible?
thanks
Hein

that depends on the mail client of your email recipient. There is nothing you can control on the sender end. For example, Mail will display pdf attachments inline automatically.

How to run a report to a file ascii in forms/report 10G

We have an application in form an report 6i and we are going to translate it in 10G dev suite.
We have a problem with any forms modules which run report to file ascii with particular format.
After these files are send to printer o machine with host comand (we use the webutil for the host comand).
How can we run tese reports to file ascii ?

Hi,
if you print a Reports to the file system then this happens on the server. Your options are
a) Run the Reports with destype=cache and have the user printing it from the Browser
b) Print the Reports to the file system as before and make the directory accessible on the Web so that you can call the file using web.show_document()
c) You use Run_Report_Object() and print the reports to a network printer next to the user
d) check otn.oracle.com/products/forms for orarrp (an unsupported utility but working)
