Purpose of JOB_OPEN, JOB_CLOSE..?
Hi All,
What is the exact purpose of the below FMu2019s..?
JOB_OPEN
JOB_CLOSE
Puppy.Hello,
We ever u want to create the session in ths SM37 transation u have to use these FMs.
JOB_OPEN
Use JOB_OPEN to create a background job
The function module returns the unique ID number which, together with the job name, is required for identifying the job.
Once you have "opened" a job, you can add job steps to it with JOB_SUBMIT and submit the job for processing with JOB_CLOSE.
JOB_CLOSE
This is used to close the job which is opened.
JOB_SUBMIT is used to submit the job.
Example Programs.
You will know how to use this FMs

Background Job using JOB_OPEN & JOB_CLOSE
Experts,
I have coded a program in SE38 which calls other program to be scheduled in background using JOB_OPEN , SUBMIT, & JOB_CLOSE. Now my requirement is to send an email to the person who runs (schedules) a job in background by Email (SAP Inbox or office email-ID) of completion of the job. how do i do that?
Kindly send me your solutions.
Thanks.Here is some code that will determine when a job has completed. We use this daily.

Hi,
We can schedule the programs or transactions in background through SM36 and we can see the status through SM37.Then what is the use of FM's JOb_open,Job_submit and Job_close.When we will use these FM's.
Can anybody tell me the difference between these two methods for scheduling the jobs in background....with sample code if possible
Thanks & Regards,

Also,
Create a Variant for the Program and
Schedule JOB in background:
Go to SM36 create a Job
enter Program and Variant for that program in STEP..
click on Start Condition
Click on DATE and TIME enter date scheduled Start and END times
click on Period Values
Click on HOURLY/WEEKLY etc
CLick on RESTRICTIONS also to use further criteria.
so your job will be scheduled and run as per your requirement.
and in SM37 Transaction check the status of that JOB
Check this link for scheduling jobs..
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c4/3a7f87505211d189550000e829fbbd/content.htm
You can also use the fun modules JOB_OPEN,JOB_CLOSE etc for job
scheduling.
hope this helps.

To delay a program submitted in background from another transaction.
Hi All,
There are 2 programs 'A' and 'B' . During execution of 'A' , 'B' is called and submitted in background using FM Job_open & Job_close and submit query.
My requirement is to Delay the Program 'B' by 2-3 mins without delaying Program 'A' .
I tried using FM JOB_OPEN export condition sdlstrttm = w_starttm but was of no help.
I also tried using statement wait up to 120 seconds but this also makes wait to program 'A'.
Please suggest solutions to this.

Issue in Foreground Report executing as background
I have developed a Report in ABAP which has a selection screen and 2 radiobuttons
Foreground
Background
The report basically reads a TXT file from Desktop and calls a standard BAPI.
In foreground, I have no issues i.e. I browse the call from desktop and call GUI_UPLOAD and so on
However, in background, I am confused how to proceed??
Please note: Report is still running in foreground mode i.e. i am browsing the file. Its just that i have selected background Radiobutton
Can anyone tell me how to proceed i.e. to execute in background.
Do I need to submit the same program via JOB_OPEN JOB_CLOSE in background and then exit??
Please adviceHi Razdan,
If want to schedule the background job through the program, then you can try method explained in below links. Here you might have to create a separate program to submit.
https://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPSUBMIT_VIA_JOB.htm
http://scn.sap.com/thread/590077
Another approach would be like below
Add an additional field apart from the radio button, say “ip_file” in the selection screen. This you can show while selecting the radio button “background”
Suppose if you have updated the file in app. Server(AL11 ) , in a location , say ( “home/myfile/test.txt” ) .
Save a variant with the radio button “background” selected and input field ip_file value as “home/myfile/test.txt”.
Now from the SM36 you can schedule the background job to run the report with the same variant.
Please note that , here you need to upload the file separately to app. Server using , tcode - CG3Z or any other FM. And in the program you can use open dataset to access the file in the app. Server. -
Regarding email generation with attachment
Hi Experts,
1) Iam sending an email with excel attachment by using the FM "SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1".
My problem is for example if i have 5 lines in the email table then these 5 lines are showing in single in the excel.
How can i rectify this?
2) i need to submit the report in the back ground with variant and with out selection screen.How to do this?

Then u ll get the mail the way u designed.
The answer of ur 2nd question is........
Specify the selection screen in ur program
and use FMs 'JOB_OPEN' , 'JOB_CLOSE' & 'JOB_SUBMT' to schedule the job in the background..

Hi,
We have a query regarding submission of Jobs in background. If we use JOB_OPEN,JOB_CLOSE in our executable program to submit a job to run this proram with a transaction code and also schedule this job in background using SM36 the what will be the effect?Hi pankaj,
1. If the program only display some data,
and does not update anything,
then nothing will go wrong.
2. Both programs will run independently of each other,
in background.

Hi Folks,
I would like to have some clarification on Back ground job scheduling.
I found 2 kind of possibilities for scheduling a program to run in back ground
1.programatically ( job_open , job_close)
2.thorugh sm36 ( defining a job & scheduling)
what is the dif between them?Is it only GUI advantage for 2nd option over 1st one?
<b>Is there is any particular context to use above things specifically</b>
<b>please list out the actual advantages of each option so that i can use them for my applications appropriatly...</b>
Thanks in advance
Raja.Hi again,
1. make it periodical job..can't we run the report again and again depending up on our need??
If the SCHEDULE is periodical,
the report will automatically run again and again.
(but not on our need, it will run
at the pre-destined stiuplated time,
eg. every hour, every day at 10:00 clock etc)
2. suppose there is a standard report
which prints out purchase order.
now we want to develope a z program,
which will have selection screen
for multiple POs and it should generate
the report and send mail !
3. Then in this case,
we develop the z program,
and write code
to submit the orignal po program,
ONE BY ONE,
using background concept.
(here i mean multiple times)

No result when I submit in background job a Z transaction
Hi,
I design a screen with the screen painters for my Z report instead of using SELECTION-SCREEN command to build my screen of selection. In the PAI process, I launch the same report in backgound with JOB_OPEN,SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE and nothing happens. I go to SM50 and no job is found and SM37 confirm me thatt the job has been launch and terminate without error.
My report, when the background checkbox is checked, launch it-self in background to insert rows in 2 Z tables. Theses 2 tasks take time and are not possible to process in foreground and the user can't wait after the result. That is why I Submit my report in background.
I made it in another program with a selection screen built with SELECTION-SCREEN command and I never had this problem.
It is possible to do a selection screen with the screenpainters and launchable in background or it is only possible with SELECTION-SCREEN command.JOB_OPEN,SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE and nothing happens. I go
to SM50 and no job is found and SM37 confirm me thatt
the job has been launch and terminate without error.
In SM50 you can see the jobs only while they are running. Since there is an entry in SM37, it means that the job has been initiated, so something did happen. Check the job log for the details (I strongly advise to add some messages in your program to track the progress).
You might also want to take a look at the FM SUBST_START_REPORT_IN_BATCH. Here is a code example that I've just written recently to force the report execution in the background (a message is displayed to the user but the report runs in a backrgound job):
PARAMETERS: p_vkorg TYPE tvko-vkorg OBLIGATORY MEMORY ID vko.

SUBST_START_REPORT_IN_BATCH actually calls JOB_OPEN, JOB_CLOSE but I just find it easier to use one FM instead of 2-3. -

How to schedule job to execute after 5 seconds gap using the program
Hi ALL,
How to schedule the program to run after 5 seconds to execute using JOB_OPEN,JOB_CLOSE,SUB_SUBMIT function modules in which parameter I should give this 5 secnods?
Regards
maheshHi,
You can use the import parameters of function module JOB_CLOSE
SDLSTRTDT & SDLSTRTTM
to pass the required start date and time (respectively) of your background job. That is, if you want the job to be scheduled and start at a fixed time (as in your case 5 seconds in the future), you can determine the start date and time as 5 seconds ahead of sy-uzeit and pass the resultant values to the mentioned importing parameters.
Cheers,

Run report in Backround and Save it automatic as Excel File
I've created a report program that uses the alv grid. I run it in background, then i want to save it automatic as an excel file.
can y help me
ThanksHi,
When you run a report in background, irespective of the type of report, let it be Normal or ALV report, we have to use JOB FM's, such as JOB_OPEN, JOB_CLOSE. When you run a report in background, the data to be displayed is stored in the spool. So firt, you need to hold the spool data into an internal table, and then pass that internal table to GUI_DOWNLOAD, by hardcoding a path in the local system to download.
Use this FM to hold the spool output in a internal table , RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB.
Hope this is helpful to you. If you need further information, revert back.
Reward all the helpful answers.

How to create a Background Job?
Hi All,
A ABAP List report is taking too long to run. It takes nearly 5 mints sometimes it is halted by a timeout. I would like to run this report as a background job. What's the transaction I should use & could U give me the steps. Also is it possible to schedule the Job to run on 1st of every month.
Thanks,
Kishan1.programatically ( job_open , job_close)
2.thorugh sm36 ( defining a job & scheduling)
doing something programmatically certainly has an advantage of automation... there may be cases wherein depending on certain conditions u need to run different programs in the background.. so this can be incorporated in the program itself using if/else or other condition commands..
there may be numerous other differences too.
SM36 option is more of static one and programmitaclly is more on the fly scheduling a job.
Using SM36, it not a one time thing. If you want program to run at a specific frequency, say every 24 hrs, that also can be done.
