Running a cycle count job in the background

I am trying to set up a job to run in the background to create the inventory documents for the warehouse for a week. The program is RLINV050 and I have a variant for the settings (this is a program that calls transaction LX26). The problem is when I run this program it only performs the first screen of the transaction. I need to know how to create a step that will perform and execute so it will go to the second screen of the transaction and then another step that will perform a save. This will then create documents. I have seen this done at companies I have been at in the past but I don't know how they set it up! If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it! Thanks

Create a script that call the script and passes the parameters.
i.e.
vi wrapper_master_tts_transfer.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
export RUN_DIR=<path to script>
$RUN_DIR/master_tts_transfer -e 10.87.90.204
Then run
nohup ./wrapper_master_tts_transfer.ksh &

My MBpro has been running some kind of app in the background upon turning on, heating up for no cause. Is this normal since Snow Lepard? It's been updated and I also have anti-virus software too.

you're welcome....
also check activity monitor - all processes - see what's using up most of your cpu resources under % CPU....
highlight anything that's really high and hit quit process......anything over 10% is considered high - unless it's your browser....
good luck...

Running Browser calling method'CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES' in the background.

Hello SAP Gurus
My intention is to shutdown and restart communication channels on PI side. To do this externally, we can send a URL with right parameters.
I have written a simple ABAP code to do this by calling the method 'CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES 'with the URL. Since I have several channels, I am calling this method in a loop. It is doing the job well.
However, for each channel an IE browser screen pops up with the XML data for that particular URL. It is kind of annoying to see so many popups.
Is there a way in ABAP to supress this multiple browser pop ups? Is there a way to make this method run in the background?
I know that this method is meant to call a browser screen with the URL, however I want to suppress this Browser POP up and use the remaining function.
Any feedback will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

You cannot use a frontend (GUI) service when a program is running in the background.
You'll have to call the URL in a different way... something that doesn't create a popup window. Or execute the command that is invoked when accessing that URL.

Cycle Counting. After the basics.

Hi everyone.
I'm very interested on knowing a little bit more about Cycle Counting.
I had created the ABC Compile, ABC Classes and I had assigned the items. My question is about how Oracle advice or notify on a certain date to perform a Count? Is it an outside control?
Afterwards, where do I should register the counts and its adjustments?
Thank you in advance.
Eduardo.

Hi Eduardo
I think you need to refer this question to the E-Business Suite forum.

Kinect extremely laggy and continually reboots until I run Kinect Studio 2.0 in the background.

I'm relatively new to developing with the Kinect v2 sensor. I'm having a problem where the sensor is extremely laggy (1 frame per 5-10 seconds) and will continually reboot every 10-15 seconds. It's doing this in the ControlsBasics-XAML project that came
with the SDK as well as any other Kinect app.
I found a strange workaround that makes it run extremely smooth. If I just open up the Kinect Studio v2 application (comes with the SDK) and leave it running in the background, then it makes any other Kinect app run smoothly.
I have the latest nVidia drivers, running Windows 8.1 and DirectX 11. Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks,
Mario Suau

Your system is running in low power state and you need to ensure that the CPU has fully power to run the Kinect. Check the troubleshooting guide sticky(last post) on the main forum page:

Run OC4J 903 on linux in the background?

I am relatively new to Linux and have been trying to start OC4J either automatically or as a background process (so that I do not have to keep the terminal window open). I tried "$nohup java -jar oc4j.jar &", but OC4J still shuts down when I logout or exit the terminal. Does anyone know of a good way to start OC4J automatically or as a background process?

I had this problem when running in Solaris machine. The workaround was changing the shell to csh first, execute nohup java -jar oc4j.jar &, and then exit the csh shell. Using this approach I was able to make my OC4J work in background.

Is it possible to run steam as a service in the background?

Now that Steam In-Home streaming works from a Linux host, I was wondering if was possible to get Steam t run as a background service? The idea being that I simply need to boot the host computer and can then play games on my laptop elsewhere without needing to log into the host box - or start Steam on it manually.
Apart from possible performance issues, users on the host computer need not even be aware that Steam is running.
Can this be done?

MainStage is an application, not a plugin. So, no, it can't be used in Cubase.

I'm developing a test system that reqiures that I run a TCP/IP session in the background while running TestStand. How could I incorporate this TCPIP vi into the TestStand Operator Interface ?

Test Engineering
Empower RF Systems Inc.

Mal,
If you have the LabVIEW Operator Interace, you can place your TCP/IP Vi anywhere you want. Either at the beginning of the execution, when a particular sequence is running, when a user logs in, etc. Since you have the LV code, you can just add your TCP/IP as a subVI in the right place. You could also place a button in the front panel that will allow you to CONNECT/DISCONNECT by calling your VIs.
Does this help?

Running program in the background

Hi everybody!
I need to run program in the background.
So I need only to change the sy-batch status to 'X'?

HI,
if your program is runninn in the Background then the System field SY-BATCH will become 'X' otherwise it will have space ......
it will not execute the job in the background if you put SY-BATCH = 'X'
you need to use: Job_open , Job_submit and job_close function modules
example:
*Submit report as job(i.e. in background)
data: jobname like tbtcjob-jobname value
                             ' TRANSFER TRANSLATION'.
data: jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,
      host like msxxlist-host.
data: begin of starttime.
        include structure tbtcstrt.
data: end of starttime.
data: starttimeimmediate like btch0000-char1.
Job open
call function 'JOB_OPEN'

Bogus print from cycle count batch job

Hi all,
We are using cycle count process for certain materials.
Two std batch jobs are used for this purpose.
1. To create cycle count document in the system.
2. To print created cycle count document.
For last few days we are facing a strange problem. Cycle count print job is printing some documents which are not available in SAP Environment. (Tables IKPF and ISEG)
Any pointers to solve the issue would be helpful.
regards,
Parshuram

check the settings made for the print job.
Use SM37 find your print job. Click the step button.
What program do you use?
put your cursor onto the step line, then choose from menu GOTO > Variants.
What selection criteria are used in the variant?

PHP script won't run in the background

Hi all
Hope someone can help me with a weird issue I have...
I am trying to run a php CLI script in the background and it just won't run - it has a status of Stopped SIGTOU (Trying to write output) - Here are the details
OS
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2
PHP
PHP 5.3.6 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Sep 8 2011 19:34:00)
Copyright (c) 1997-2011 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies
I created a basic script test.php
<?php echo 'Hello world'.PHP_EOL; ?>
Here are the results of various tests:-
Test 1) php -f test.php (Hello world gets displayed)
Test 2) php -f test.php >test.log 2>&1 (Hello world gets put into test.log)
Test 3) php -f test.php >test.log 2>&1 & --- I get [1]+ Stopped(SIGTTOU) php -f test.php > test.log 2>&1 -- and the job just sits there doing nothing nothing gets logged however lsof shows the log file is open
It has to be something to do with Apple's php build because a similar bash shell script gets executed no problems in the background...
This has me stumped ... any ideas? What can I do to find out what is going on ...?
TIA
Rich

Just realized your trying to load the php files by using the File->Open menu item in the Browser. That won;t work.
You have to load the php file by placing it in the Sites folder and entering http://localhost/file.php
(or if you have user Sites enabled http://localhost/~user/file.php)
The reason it is grayed out is that the browser doesn't run (or know of) php files. The web server runs those (via php) and the output of the file goes to the web browser.
This page How to enable Web Sharing in OS X Mountain Lion does a pretty good job of explaining it. (as does the user tip I lonked to before)

What happens in the background when a job is scheduled!!!

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what exactly happens in the background in SAP when a job is set to "Scheduled" ( sm37) .
Can v see the code executed in the background during the transtion from " Scheduled" state of a job to" Cancelled" to "Complete" state.
Its urgent,
Answers will rewarded,
regards,
Rohan

Hi Rohan,
Jobs and job steps enable you to treat complex tasks as single units. That is, you can schedule several programs needed to complete a particular task as steps within a single job, with the advantage of the job being single logical container for all the steps needed to complete the task. You need to schedule or review only one background job in order to schedule or review any of the individual steps necessary for completing the task.
Assume that a particular data transfer with batch input requires that you start two programs, an external program to prepare the batch-input session and an internal program to process the session. Creating a job made up of two steps lets you handle the two programs as a single unit. Scheduling that one job schedules both programs. The results of each program's run can be seen in the job log.
Some background processing attributes apply to entire jobs and, therefore, to all job steps within a job. For example, the earliest possible start time for any job steps will be the start time for the job. Frequency of repetition, priority, and other global attributes also apply to the whole job.
To ensure that you can flexibly run individual programs, you can set important attributes individually for each job step, too. Each job step can:
have its own spool, or output, specifications
run under the authorizations of a separate user
use a different language
have its own runtime options (for programs external to the SAP System), such as handling of error output and synchronicity
In general, job steps run sequentially and synchronously in the order they're entered in a job: the first step starts, runs, and is completed, then the second step starts, and so on. The only exception is when you schedule an external program to run asynchronously. In this case, the background processing system starts the next job step without waiting for a return code from the external program. If the external program runs long enough, then the start of the next job step may overlap it.
Job steps run partially independently of each others status. That is, the abnormal termination of one job step does not roll back the work of a previously completed job step if this previous step was executing a commit. If any job step fails, however, then the entire job fails. No further job steps are carried out, and the job's status changes to Canceled.
There are two types of job steps:
An executable ABAP program
Only type 1, or executable, ABAP programs can be used as job steps. Module pools and function groups, which are collections of ABAP modules, are not allowed. The specifications required for an ABAP job step are:
ABAP program + Variant + Print and archiving parameters + Language
An external command or external program
This type of job step allows you to run programs outside the SAP System. External commands are predefined, authorization-protected commands for end users. External programs are unrestricted, directly entered commands reserved for system administrators.
The type of external command and external program is unrestricted, meaning that you can use either compiled programs or scripts. Such programs can be run on any computer that can be reached from the SAP System. Parameter passing to non-SAP programs is completely unrestricted except by the predefinition mechanism for external commands.
Output of non-SAP programs, particularly error messages, is included in the job's log file.
Specifications required for an external command or program are:
External command + Type of operating system + (Parameters) + Target host system
External program + Parameters + Target host system
Job Step Language
If your SAP System runs with an Arabic, Cyrillic, or Asian character set, then you may need to change the language specified in the standard background jobs listed above. Languages are assigned to jobs based on job steps. Be sure that the language specified in the job step definition in each of these jobs is set to English (EN).
This change is required because not all languages are available with all code pages. If the jobs specified language is not available, the job will not run.

How to upload the Cycle Count Indicator from ERP into EWM

Hello Gurus,
Can someone tell me what the transaction is to upload the Cycle Count Indicator from the ERP into EWM? I am currently researching the cycle count functionality of EWM for a roll-out at our facility, and this information would be most helpful.
As I understand it, there are transactions for the Global Material Master Data upload, Storage Unit Type in the Palletization Data fields of the ERP (which seems to be translated as the SUT to Packing Material), and Unit of Measure management. Also, judging by a document I found, the Cycle Count Indicator isn't uploaded in the Global Material Data, but I did see that the field has relevency in the EWM packing specifications.
Does this mean that the indicators must be uploaded through the "SUT to Packing Material" transaction (/SCWM/MIG_MAP_SUT)?
What if the Cycle Count Indicator should require a change? Does the change have to be made in ERP and pushed to EWM, do they get updated separately, or is there a way to allow for automatic updating?
I hope the question doesn't seem too complex, but it is the only way I could drill down enough to get what I hope I need.
Thank you!

Hello,
You can do it using MASS TCode.
