How to run the program in background job,program should run in 3 days.

Dear Gurus,
i have a program , that program should run approximately 3 days to get the result.
i scheduled this program as a background job.
how can i run sto5 t-code for this same program.
i that case how we can trace the output.
Experts please help me out.
Thank u very much.
Regards
sudheer

Hello Sudheer,
The trace can be set on background jobs by using ST12 transaction. Please make sure that the trace is activated for only few minutes in production environment.
Contact your basis team to activate trace on background job and the transaction used is ST12.
Thanks

How to submit the report in Background job.

Hello Friends,
In the selection screen I have 2 radio buttons one for background Process & other for foreground processing. if the user selects the background processing the program should execute in background and output need to be sent to SAP Inbox.
Issues:
1) If I am using the JOB_Submit FM or Report Submit the program is going to infinite loop and many continiously jobs are are being scheduled. How to avoid.
2) Is there any best possible way to send the mail to SAP Inbox.
Note: I am using OOALV in my program....
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
the first problem looks like you have an infinite recursion. You just need to avoid background scheduling again. There is a system field sy-batch. So if this field is equal to 'X' then you are already in background mode and you don't need to schedule your background job again. Another way is to split your program in two programs. The first will be responsible for scheduling or executing the second one.
You can use FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send message to workflow inbox. You need to user receiver type B. There are so many posts on this forum about sending emails from ABAP which may help you with implementing this requirement.
Cheers

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 to get the list of batch jobs running in a specific application server

Hi Team,
I am trying to check in SM37 if there is any specific condition to get the list of batch jobs assigned to a specific target server but cant find any.
Is there is way to find the list of batch jobs assigned to run in one specific application server.( Target server specified in SM36 while job creation)

Hello,
This is what you can do in SM37.
Execute the list of batch jobs, when the result appears on the screen edit the ALV grid via CTRL+F7.
Now add the following columns "TargetServ" and "Executing server".
You will now have two extra columns in your result list.
TargetServr contains the value of the application server where the job should run when you have explicitely filled it in.
Often this is empty, this means that at runtime SAP will determine itself on which application server the job will run (depending of course where the BGD processes are defined).
Executing server is filled in always for all executed jobs, this is the actual application server where the job has run.
You can also add these two fields in your initial selection screen of SM37 by using the "Extended job selection" button.
I hope this isusefull.

How to Execute WebDynpro Applications as Background Job ?

Hi Gurus,
We have developed a lot of WDJ applications with component reusage; ie,
quite a lot of business logic are wrapped in WDJ Components which are
re-used by other WD UIs.
Now we'd like to automate some of the processes with background jobs
and faced with a few problems :
#1. How can we write a background WD application which can be
triggered by external mechanism and without presenting any UI?
#2. If we write the background program in a Java DC, how can we
invoke existing methods in WD components ?
Anyone got a clue ??
Ying-Jie Chen

Hello Amit,
> Well I can think of a workaround in this case.If you are aware
> of the suspend-resume functionality of the WD application then
> its possible to run the WD application virtually in background.
[ stuffs deleted ...]
It sounds like a possible alternative to our requirement, I'll
spend some time to investigate on the WD suspend-resume mechanism !
> Also let me know why are you preffering the WD if you dont
> require its UI
Our application requires the process to be performed with UI interaction;
with some instances it should be run as a background job. Either case involves
RFC calls to backend SAP R/3 and it's easy for RFC access with WD
Component. Though it's also possible to use CAF application service for
RFC access; due to some technical constrains, we did not use CAF
framework. Therefore it ends up where we are now ...
Thanks for your tip!

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

Better is to select the job.
Select (Define) Step (s) or F6.
Select the line and Menu Goto>Variant.
The variant contains the name of the CHAIN and its VARIANT.
Success
We faced an old job and via job monitoring we were informed about a cancelled job every 'interval'.
We noticed that the related chain was deleted but still the job was scheduled each interval again and was cancelled because an event was missing
We could not find the scheduled job via SM37.
Via view V_OP, view over tbtco abd tbtcp, we find the related entry.
We delete these entries via function BP_JOB_DELETE....

Rule set import - Background job did not run

Hi,
I am setting up my CC 5.2 production system. I have downloaded from ruleset from the dev CC and imported it into production. However the background job generated did not run. I am implementing SAP note 999785 to fix this, but am wondering what should I do about the rule set? Do I need to delete the rule set and reimport it? As this background job did not run I notice that the permission rules did not generate.
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks

Hi,
as the backgorund job never ran and no rules were created, I can just reimport the ruleset and let the job run. I have tried this and the rules were created successfully

How to change the page Header background colour in a Theme

Hello,
I want to know how to change the page header background colour. If you are in the Editor I don't find a property where to change it.
If you are in the Theme Editor in the header bar I want to change stands <b>Theme Editor</b>. This (in my case blue colored bar) I want to change in another color.

Hello Radhika,
thanks for your answer. Where do I find the option for the pageheader in System Administration>Portal Display>Theme Editor ->IView Trays exactly?
The pageheader is a picture, which must be uploaded for the web dynpro. Why should any webdynpro element in the ivew tray. There is no relationship between these two parts.
I have not found any option to change the web dynpro pageheader. Could there any extra theme editor for webdynpro?
Thanks.
