Running copy functions in the background

Hello,
Does anyone know how to run copy functions in the background? I am having an issue because you have to save after the CF are done.. How can you do this in the background?
Thanks,

Hi Matthew,
You can use program UPC_PLANFUNCTION_EXECUTE to execute planning function.
Also take a look at Function modules
UPC_FUNCEXEC
UPC_FUNCEXEC_COMMIT
Hope it helps.
Cheers

Running some functions in the background - Flex mobile

Hi,
I have an application which allows the user to take a picture and upload it to the cloud. after the picture is taken, I'm performing some manipulation which takes 10 - 20 seconds. is there a way to do that in the background so it won't affect the user app flow.
Thanks

There's no concept of "background" processing or multi threading in Flex just yet.
In the past I have written processing routines that are processor-intensive, in such a way that they do some processing then stop, allowing the UI to function and then resume them after a moment. Basically, you need to be able to keep the current state periodically and then restart processing via a timed event, picking up where you left off.
Also be aware that mobile platforms have limited resources and apps can be asked to shut down at any moment, 10-20 seconds of inactivity will not be acceptable on some platforms.

Perform BPS functions on the background

Is there way to perform BPS functions (Fox Formula or User Exit type of function) on the background? In this case putting all the functions in a Global Planning Sequence.
I have the request to load data to the BPS cube and perform BPS function during the weekend in a way that on Monday morning I'll have the users to check on the data already calculated? What's the procedure?
Thank you.
Heverton

Hi Heverton,
Yes, we have executed planning sequences in the background to copy and calculate data using scheduled background jobs. As a future reference, you may use the following steps to schedule a background job:
Transaction SM36 (Define Background Job) - enter a job name and click on Start Condition.
Click on 'Date/Time' button and enter the scheduled start date and time to run the job.
Click 'Period values' button and select the period in question. Click 'Save' button.
On the Define Background Job screen, click on (foot) 'Step'.
Click on 'ABAP program' and enter 'UPC_BUNDLE_EXECUTE' in the 'Name' field. Select the appropriate variant in the 'Variant' field. Click 'Save'.
Note: to schedule more than one variant in one job, click (foot) 'Step' and from 'Step List Overview' screen click 'Create' and repeat steps to select and save variant.
Click 'Save'. System display message 'Job <name> saved with status: Released'
You can monitor the background job using transaction BPS0, select 'Global planning sequences' and then 'Logs' button. Enter date/time/user, which matches the timeframe when job was executed. Click 'Execute' and verify the job log.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Cassio

I am trying to fetch records into a temp table based on a complex query (lot of joins and search query dynamically built based on users entry). Also display the records pagewise as soon as 100 records are fetched.
I want to run this at background with commits inbetween so that I can access the info and display each page with certain number of rows.

Issue with How Do I Run an Executable in the Background ?

Hi,
I am trying to run a LabVIEw executable in the background, but none of the methods described in the discussion forum and on ni.com seems to be working. I am using LV 2011 on a Win 7 64-bit machine in case this matters.
I tried the method described in "How Do I Run an Executable in the Background as a Start-Up Application?" (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/4A8B626B55B96C248625796000569FA9?opendocument&Submitted&&... but I still see a fragment of a window at the bottom near the start-button (Exhibit 1). Exhibit 2 shows that it only consists of the title bar. (I have customized the window appearance as described, and added the two items
HideRootWindow=True
UseTaskBar=FALSE
to the *.ini file.)
I also tried disabling all the other items in the Customize Window Appearance menu with the same result.
Then I tried the method described in "Running a LabVIEW Executable as a Background Process" (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/EFEAE56A94A007D586256EF3006E258B) adding the FP.Open method to the VI and setting the state to hidden. I got the same result (Exhibit 1).
Is there anything I need to do in addition or different for my windows version? I appreciate your help. Thank you.
Solved!

Change parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time.
Default value for this is 600 seconds (10minutes).Change it to a time which you think you need for copying infocube data.
May be 5 hours.
PS:You can not run Function Module in background directly,but you can create a Z* program and call that FM from within that program and then run the program in background.
Hope this answers your query. Best of Luck!
Thanks and Regards

How to call a function in the background in WDA?

__The requirement is__
call the function XYZ from Webdynpro ABAP program to run in the background and user doesnt have to wait to finish it, but can work on other screens/transactions.
1. Should function XYZ be remote-enabled?
2. Will CALL function XYZ in background task work?
Points will be rewarded. Thanks.

Hi John,
I guess you will have to use the asynchronous RFC for your requirement.
So that this FM can be called frm WD applicaiotn and due to asynchronous nature, it has no relation with other user actions which are going on .
You can check this

How to run an application in the background when iMac starts up?

Hi,
I installed TextExpander a couple of months back. It normally runs in the background and doesn't appear in my list of running applications when I cycle through them with Cmd+Tab. This is how I like it.
Of late though, TextExpander starts up when I switch on my machine, but it now appears as an application running in the foreground; if I Cmd+Tab through my running applications, TextExpander is listed among them.
I'd prefer if I did not see it when switching between applications.
I've tried restarting the machine, but to no avail. Also, there is nothing in the preferences to run in the background.
(Possibly unrelated: I don't recall doing anything in particular that might have caused this change in behaviour, but I have noticed recently that TextExpander has found an 'older version' and is asking me if I want to remove it. I don't remember updating it to a newer version, and I don't believe I have it set to auto-update.)
Can anyone explain how I can make it run in the background? I'd be very grateful.
Thanks and best regards,
Ken.

To run your app as a daemon (if you are really sure it can) check the app's preferences panel, there should be sometthing like "show in dock".
A little embarrassing, but +there is+ an option within TextExpander's preferences to "Hide TextExpander icon in Dock". Don't know how I missed it. I checked the preferences on two separate occasions! Feeling a little morto'ed.
In any case, to confirm what I've done:
-Within System Preferences > Accounts > Login items tab, I have selected the "hide" checkbox for TextExpander.
-Within TextExpander's preferences, I selected the "Hide TextExpander icon in Dock" checkbox.
TextExpander still runs, but doesn't appear in the Dock or in the list of running applications (that I can switch between with Cmd+Tab).
Result!
Tx for your help.

Why do I get a status of 'waiting' when I run a report in the background

Happy new Year Experts!!
I am working with Ad-hoc query and I run reports in the background. When I go to System > Own Spool Requests the status is always waiting. When I go to SM37 the status is complete. I can open the report from my own spools requests and it is completed.
Thanks.
Regards,
Jeanette

Go to SM36-> Own jobs - double click the job - Select Edit-Steps - DOuble click the step and check print specifications.
Moreover, if you wanna make the job printed on finish, make sure that there is a default printer defined in SU3 - Defaults - Output device field.

Schedule measurement in SE30 - running a report in the background

Dear experts,
I have a long running ABAP report and I will need to analyze its runtime for performance improvements.
How may I correctly run this ABAP report in the background from SE30 (runtime analysis tool)? The report has to be run using a specific variant for its selection screen inputs as well.
This is what I have done:
1. Go to SE30
2. Click on "For User/Service" button under "Schedule"
3. Create new Schedule Measurement with the following details:-
- User (<my user name>),
- Client (<properly specified>),
- External Session (Any),
- Processing Category (Background Processing),
- Object Type (Report),
- Object Name (<ABAP report program name>),
- Max. No. of Scheduled Measurements (1),
- Expiration Date & Time (<properly specified>)
5. In the screen "Overview of Scheduled Measurements", I have the following displayed as well:-
- Scheduled = 1
- Started = 0
- Errors = 0
- Status = Being processed
Am I still on the right track here? (Started = 0 and there was no way I could specify the variant for the selection screen input values too)
Please help. Appreciate any inputs at all.
Thanks.

Hi,
you can try it with ST12 and the <ALL Servers> Option for tasktype B.
see this blog:
/people/hermann.gahm/blog/2010/03/22/st12-150-tracing-user-requests-tasks-http
ST12 uses SE30 / ST05 behind the covers. But here you can switch on
the trace for all servers and therefore don't have to take care for that yourself.
Kind regards,
Hermann

Can you run Bridge CC in the Background the way you could with cs4, cs5, etc ?

One of the best things about Bridge was that I could run it in the background (as in there is a little Br icon near my clock) and not have it taking up a space on my task bar. I cannot seem to figure out how to do this with CC. Any suggestions? Running windows 7.

The main problem for me is that I prefer that Brige stay always on background to not lost my navigation storic. As it was on earlier versions. Now every time I open Bridge CC it losts the lasts folders I was.
It seems you need a pref reset to restore this behavior. Only speaking about Mac I have Bridge started at start up of my machine (including some other apps) every morning automatically at the same time. So when I start working all apps are ready and at hand.
Only problem I have is when I last used the output module before shutting down, this does not seem able to remember the full size screen (30") but resizes to about 25 " at start up. In all other occurrences it opens with the last used window full screen and showing the folder last use.
Also I often use multiple windows for ease of having different workspaces and navigation at hand just by cycling through the windows. It would be nice if Bridge remembered all open windows from the previous day but sadly enough this is not possible. The one last used however should show again after start up.
As for last used manual sort order, Paul Riggott once wrote a script to retain the last manual sort order used because Bridge it self is not capable of this to retrieve once it has been altered.

Running a jar in the background on Linux

I have a server that's made in Java. However, when I run it I have to keep the console window open which kind of defeats the purpose of running it on a remote server if my computer has to stay on as well. I can run it in the background at least, but the console window my stay up. Is there a way it can run without my console window open? Is making it a service the only way?

Nohup would do it. Or google "linux services" for countless tutorials on running services on *nix
