MMBE Execute in Background - Spool Request Missing Header Information

Greetings,
While reviewing differences between MMBE and MMBE_OLD in ECC 6.0 upgrade test environment it was discovered that when MMBE (RMMMBESTN) is executed in background the spool request does not display the material number, description, material type , UoM and Base UoM. I created a message to SAP.
Has anyone else had this issue?

That you can execute transactions in background is just a standard functionality, which certainly makes sense for reports that have something to do, that run long, need a lot performance etc.
But MMBE..........I really never had the idea to run MMBE in background. to get the result online I just have to click the execute button, to run in background I habe to click the menu, click the run in background, click the run immediatly, click okay .....
and then I would need to open the job to find the spool etc etc.
all for just the stock overview of one single material.
I really would never had spend a thought that somebody would do this effort.
Why do YOU need to do this?
I am really curious what SAP answers you

Spool request missing for Payment run

Hi SAP gurus,
I have executed one payment run, 87 payment orders have been generated. When i saw the spool request, it shows only 34 pages, rest other pages are missing. Even, system is showing status of spool as "waiting". I thought, it might be completed in few hours, already 1 day has been passed but no change. I generated spool couple of time but it always stuck at 34 page.
Can you please let me know, how can i print rest 43 remittance advice??? I would also like to know the cause of this error.
Many thanks for your quick response.
Regards,
SATVIR SINGH

1. Check your variant in F110 (Have you restricted the vendor numbers in your variant on parameters) - Last tab on F110
2. If not, then in your spool, from menu bar, select:
Go to ==> Display Requests ==> Settings
Check the from page to to page. (Make to page as 999).
Ignore any warning messages.

Write the Error log from background Job to the Spool request

Hi ,
I have a situation where in i need to capture the error log of a Z program which runs as a background job and write that log into the spool request. My Z program calls runs RSEINB00 program using the SUBMIT statement. When this Job fails the error log can be seen in SM37. But i need this error log to be sent in to a spool.
I can read the error log using the BP_JOBLOG_READ FM and can also create a spool using the RSPO_SPOOL_OPEN FM.
The problem is, when the Submit statement executes, due to internal valdation in the RSEINB00 program the program terminates. Due to this it is not able to perform the SY-SUBRC Check and thus doesn't read the log.
Can anybody suggest me how to overcome this problem. I am attaching the code for your refernece.
SUBMIT RSEINB00
       USING SELECTION-SET 'TEST2'
                       TO SAP-SPOOL
                       LIST NAME 'LOCL'
                       IMMEDIATELY space
                       KEEP IN SPOOL 'X'
       AND RETURN.
<b>If sy-subrc <> 0.</b>
             CALL FUNCTION 'BP_JOBLOG_READ'
              EXPORTING
                CLIENT                      = SY-MANDT

                JOBNAME                     = i_tbtco-jobname
               TABLES
                 JOBLOGTBL                   = l_joblog
             IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

P.S. : any other approach to solve this problem will be appreciated too and the points will be rewarded suitably.

If I select a job in SM37 and I click on "spool" I get a list with separate spool entries for each of the steps, e. g.
Programmname/Kommand   Programmtyp   Spoolliste
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_WERK ABAP             1707445
ZSLEEP                 Ext. Kommando
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_WERK ABAP             1707459
ZSLEEP                 Ext. Kommando
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_MARA ABAP             1721423
ZSLEEP                 Ext. Kommando
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_WERK ABAP             1721437
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_MARA ABAP             1721446
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_WERK ABAP             1721447
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_VKORG ABAP             1721471
ZSLEEP                 Ext. Kommando
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_VKORG ABAP             1721521
ZSLEEP                 Ext. Kommando
Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE_VKORG ABAP             1721816
It's in German but I'm sure you get the idea. For each Z_MM_STAT_UPDATE and variant I have a separate spool list that I can display.

Job in background and multiple spool requests

Hi everybody,
I'm executing a program in a background job. The program outputs 2 spool requests. When I get to SM37 t-code to see job's result, I can see at "Job Log" option that 2 spool requests were generated. But... when I press "Spool" option from SM37 t-code I only see the last one. In spite of this, when I get at the spool controller through SP01 t-code I can see both of them. Can you help me with this issue? Why from one place I get 1 request and from the other the 2 ones?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
MMP.

Hi,
Check out [this thread|https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=16405444&messageID=1181695] which has a discussion on this topic and points out [Note 519059|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/519059]:
8] Question: How are the spool requests assigned?
Answer: The step information is stored in table TBTCP. This has space for exactly one spool request (field LISTIDENT). If a step generates several spool requests during the processing, only one can be stored. In this case the application is responsible for a "spool overview".

How can i split the spool request after 1000 pages and again print from 1001 to last.
print program for F150 - SAPF150D2
Thanks in advance.

Hi Yusuf,
There is no otherway to delete the spool request except giving the option delete in the authorization object S_SPO_ACT.Make sure that you havenot given the values SP01, SP0R under the authoriztion object S_ADMI_FCD. If you have given both the authorization objects with the above mentioned values than that user will get the authorization to delete the spool requests created by the other users also. So if you want to restrict the user not to delete the spool requests created by the other users make sure , not to give him the values SP01, SP0R under the authoriztion object S_ADMI_FCD.

Hi Experts,
I have executed one report in background in sduser but it has not generated a spool request in sp01. There is no authorisation for sm37 to this user.
In abapuser user it is generating a spool request when i checked in sp01 but not in sduser.
What may be the problem ? Is there any authorisation problem ?

Data is missing in Even Page when report running in background (spool)

Hi
I have this weird problem in my report. The report would run in background convert the data in to PDF from spool and then email it to people.
Now when the PDF has more then 1 page the error occurs.
It drops the last row from the even page. The total at the end and every thing shows correctly. If there r more than 2 pages then on page 3 the last row is not dropped and its all fine but again on page 4 it drops one record and on page 5 again its working fine.
One thing is it also puts an extra line(horizontal line which is not in the code) on those pages where its unable to put the record and its always the last one on the even page. I also looked up the spool. Its doing it in the spool too. So i think its not the PDF converter its when the spool is getting created for some reason its droping the rows for the even pages...
Did any one else encountered some thing like this? please help.
Thanks

is there any problem with Background spools with SAP? We are running R3 here. And looks like its the spool background job that's creating the error. When i execute the report it shows all the record in print preview or if i print it.
Please Help!

Hi LIZZA,
Did you check the option "Delete After Print " when you fired the
print ? If yes then the system will delete the spool once the printout
is complete.

BackGround Job's Spool Request is having "Waiting" "Frontend unavailable"

Hello Friends,
I am facing one problem related to Spool Request, which is generated through Scheduled Background Jobs (scheduled by funcional people).
The Background Job is having status "completed" when analyzing it. But, its associated Spool Request is showing "waiting" Status, with "Frontend unavailable" as Status Text.
Here is the brief status of that Spool Request.
28448     1      300 USER1 00:00 LP01 X_65_80      Frontend unavailable
in Detail:
Description          Value
Status:              Frontend unavailable
Last event:
Message:             Request on hold
Date:                01.07.2009
Time:                00:00:27
Job status:          On hold
Error class:         Delayed
Area:                Data transfer
Printout:            Not printed
The Setting of LP01 O/Device is as followed:
Output Device        LP01
Device Type        SWIN SWIN : Windows printing via SAPlpd
Device Class      Standard Printer
Host Spool Access Method       F F: Printing on Front End Computer
Host printer                     __DEFAULT
Moreover, the SAP User USER1 is allocated LP01 as Output Device with "Output Immediately" & "Delete After Output" checked status.
Some Background Jobs are showing the same status for this LP01.
I have a doubt on allocated O/P Device LP01.
Any Clue for this issue ?

Hello Markus,
Here , in our Landscape , there is not Print Server. All are taking prints through, Networked Printer and their local connected Printers.
Can i configure "send to SAP Spooler for now" instead of "Print Immediately "in the Print Specification of those Background Jobs ?
Moreover, Some Background jobs are sending E-Mails with the processed Reports as an Attachments. They are showing sometime unexpected behavior, in sending emails, although there is no relation is with this Printing related issue.
When i am looking into "Overview of Send Orders" of SCOT, some Background Jobs are showing success for sending emails, and some are not showing success, even though All the recipients are same for the scheduled Background Jobs which are running on same time.

SPOOL not generated while smartform is executed in Background

Hi
I have issue while creating spool for smartform in background.Its works fine in foreground and i m able to view the outpt.
But in background it should generate a spool but it is not generating?
I have given the ouput options to supress the dialog but it still it is not generating the spool.
     control-preview = 'X'.
      control-no_dialog = 'X'.
      control-device = 'PRINTER'.
      control-no_dialog = 'X'.
      control-GETOTF = 'X'.
      OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDDEST = 'LP01'.
      OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDNOPRINT = 'X'.
Any suggestions??
Thanks & Regards
Jyo

Hi Jyotheswar,
When the smartform is generated in background create a new spool by using following code
      output_options-no_dialog = 'X'.
      output_options-tdarmod = 1.
      output_options-tdcopies = 001.
      output_options-tddest = 'LP01'.
      output_options-tdprinter = 'SWIN'.
      output_options-tdlifetime = 1.
      output_options-tdnewid = 'X'.
tdnewid is the field used to create a new spool request. You can get the new spool request number in job_output_info-spoolids.

Setting format for spool requests in background jobs, for emails

Hi,
Don't know if this is the correct forum, but I'll give it a go (will appricate info regarding what forum is applicable otherwise.)
For some periodical background jobs that we run in ECC, we have in the job set up that a mail group of people to receives the spool request via mail. Vi have used this a few years now. When we recently uppgraded from R/3 to ECC, the format of the spool request sent as mail attachment changed from .txt to .htm. This is however not the problem for us.
We now have a scenario with a daily mail report, i.e. delivered as an attachment (htm-format) in our email system (Lotus Notes).
So far so good, and nothing really new about this, except the changed format.
What the users want is to print this report. It can be done, but it is a wide report, so it cuts the report in three pieces, as there is no automatic sizing to landscape printout and/our automatic sizing to one page. The best solution would be if it automatically was set up to landscape + automatically fit page size. Which format (.txt .htm .xls .pdf...) we receive the file in, is not really important, as long as we can print it directly without having to reformat it. Now we have to save the file to excel manually after we receive it, and then format the excel sheet. Just for printout purpose, so it is annoying work.
Any solution available? (preferrably without coding)
BR,
Niclas

Hi NTR,
If you are using FM REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY to print your ALV Report it has got a paramter IS_PRINT in which you can pass your format type. Below is the field name where you have to pass your format type.
IS_PRINT-print_ctrl-PRI_PARAMS-PAART

Saving spool request in PDF format using background job

Hi,
We have some important jobs which create spool requests. My requirement is to save those spool requests either on front end or on application server in pdf format. I tried with program RSTXPDF4 but i can save those files only when pdf conversion is done online and I want it to run in background as some of the spool request have more then 3000 pages and also i'm not looking for ABAP development.
It is fine with me to save it in text format but some of the spool request have around 3000 pages and i cannot save the whole request in one shot using option system->list->save->local file
It is appreciated if someone has any alternative for the above one.
Regards,
Chaitanya

Hi,
Just check Is it solve your purpose... When you are creating background jobs mention your email / user id as spool list recipient...
I think you will recv. the spool output in the mailbox in pdf
