Scheduling a background job depending on the output lenght.

Hi every one,
I have a small requirement. My client want me to run a program in a foreground if the output is small and should the program in background if the output is large.This has to be achieved through coding. The program downloads the netprices of products. The downloaded file is of .dat format. It is an urgent requirement.
Guys you would throughly rewarded for your help.
Thanks,

Hi Nag
that is not possible with codeing. To create a schedule a background job for the same program depending on its output is not possible.
being a programmer you need to decide, how long the code will take to execute.. accordingly you can either schedule or run in foreground. You can make some mandatory fields in the selection screen, so that the output is big mostly.
see the sample code for the Job scheduling using the fun modules
IF p_bjob = 'X'.
CONCATENATE sy-cprog sy-datum sy-uzeit
INTO jobname SEPARATED BY '_'.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
jobname = jobname
IMPORTING
jobcount = jobcount
EXCEPTIONS
cant_create_job = 1
invalid_job_data = 2
jobname_missing = 3
OTHERS = 4.
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
IMPORTING
out_archive_parameters = arc_params
out_parameters = print_params
valid = valid
EXCEPTIONS

invalid_archive_params = 3
OTHERS = 4.
IF valid = chk.
SUBMIT yREP WITH s_kunnr IN s_cust
AND RETURN
USER sy-uname
VIA JOB jobname
NUMBER jobcount
TO SAP-SPOOL
SPOOL PARAMETERS print_params
ARCHIVE PARAMETERS arc_params
WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
EXPORTING
jobcount = jobcount
jobname = jobname
strtimmed = 'X'
EXCEPTIONS
cant_start_immediate = 1
invalid_startdate = 2
jobname_missing = 3
job_close_failed = 4
job_nosteps = 5
job_notex = 6
lock_failed = 7
invalid_target = 8
OTHERS = 9.
IF sy-subrc 0.
* MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
* WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ELSE.
MESSAGE i029 WITH jobname.
ENDIF.
ELSE.
MESSAGE s000 WITH text-003.
STOP.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
Also,
Yes you can use job functions:
JOB_OPEN
JOB_SUBMIT
JOB_CLOSE
* You can add multiple steps into one job by using JOB_SUBMIT.

Please provide some solution.
Any helpful answer get surely awarded.
Thanks a lot,

GUI_* WS_* Function In Background, CSV Upload
GUI_* and WS_* function modules do not work in background
When scheduling a job in the background the appropriate statement to read in your file is OPEN DATASET, and the file must be on the file system that the SAP server can see.
At anytime, a user can switch of the Personal Computers even though the job is still running in the background. Therefore GUI_* and WS_* function modules are not designed to work in that way, as they need to access your personal computer file.
To choose the correct download method to used, you can check the value of SY-BATCH in your code,
if it is 'X' use OPEN DATASET and if it is ' ' use WS_UPLOAD.
*-- Open dataset for reading
DATA:
dsn(20) VALUE '/usr/test.dat',
rec(80).
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE.

    READ DATASET dsn INTO rec.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.

What is the difference when we use upload, ws_upload, gui_upload function modules?
UPLOAD, WS_UPLOAD, GUI_UPLOAD, are used in BDC concepts. ie., Batch Data Communication.
Batch Data Conversion is a concept where user can transfer the Data from non SAP to SAP R/3. So , in these various Function Modules are used.
UPLOAD--- upload a file to the presentation server (PC)
WS_UPLOAD----    Load Files from the Presentation Server to Internal ABAP Tables.
WS means Work Station.
This is used upto SAP 4.6 version.
GUI_UPLOAD-------    Replaces WS_UPLOAD. Upoad file from presentation server to the app server. From 4.7 SAP version it is replaced.

How to schedule a background job using the Event concept..?

Hi Folks,
I have a requirement that, I need a schedule a background job.
Once after the previous job successful only, new job should get triggered. How to go ahead with this..?
For Eg, I am scheduling a job called ZTEST periodically for 1 minute. If the job is not get completing with in 1 minute, I dont want to start my new job. Only after the success of my old job, I want my new job to run.
Waiting for ur replies.
Regards,
Savi.

Hi,
You can use events that have already been defined, or you can create new events for scheduling background jobs.
If you wish to use new events, do the following to implement the event scheduling:
Define and transport the event as a user event with transaction SM62.
You must define only event IDs; event arguments are not defined in the R/3 System. Instead, you specify event arguments when you schedule a job to wait for an event and when you trigger the event.
If you define a new event, you must also transport it to your production systems. The event transaction does not have a connection to the transport system. Instead, you must create a transport request for the event yourself.
Do this to transport an event:
Create a transport request.
Start the editor in the transport request and enter the following:
R3TR TABU <table name> where table name is BTCSEV for a system event ID, BTCUEV for a user event ID.
Press F2 with the cursor on the table name to call up the screen for specifying the table entries to transport. In this screen, enter the event IDs that you have created.
Save and release the transport request. Ensure that it is imported into your production system(s).
To trigger an event, add:
the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE to your ABAP program, or
the program SAPEVT to your external script, batch file, or program.
When your programs execute these keywords, an event will be triggered in the R/3 background processing system. The event-based scheduler is started immediately. It in turn starts all jobs that were waiting upon the event, subject to normal background processing restrictions, such as the requirement that the job has been released to start.
Schedule the jobs that are to run when your events are triggered.
You can schedule jobs for one-time start or to be started whenever an event is triggered.

Raj.

Scheduling one background job inside another

Hi All,
Is it possible to Scheduling one background job inside another.? i.e In my Z program I am calling job_open, job_submit, job_close and to execute one standard report in background. And after that I am executing my Z program itself from SE38 as Program->Execute->Background->Execute Immediately. Is this logically correct? I am asking this because I am not getting the desired result
Thanks & Regards,
Neethu.

HI,
Check the job steps in SM36.
First schedule the Standard job and in the job steps schedule the z report.

Schedule a background job

Hi All,
I have an urgent query here regarding the Bakcground job.
Let's say I need to schedule a background job on hourly basis to fetch the data.
If first job runs more than 60 minutes, then will the second job will fetch the data.
What will happen in this scenario?
Thanks
Neeraj Manocha

My question is............
Let's say, I have a SAP standard table. In which our transactional data stores. I have also maintained my our database and build a program (i.e. Ztest) to fetch the data from the SAP standard table and store into my own database.
So I schedule a background job for the program (Ztest) to fetch the data. I schedule this job on hourly basis.
once first job will be runnig it will create one more instance to run after one hour.
Here my question is...
What if first job schedule on 1pm and runs for more than 60 mins (let's say it takes 90 mins to complete)?
Till what time it will fetch data (either till 1pm or 1pm +90 mins)?
If it fetch the data till 1pm +90 mins, then when second job will start and from what time it will start to fetch the data.
Hope this clears.
Thanks

How to schedule a background Job based on events

Hi,
We are on 4.6 C.
We have a background job that has two ABAP programs.
We need to start the 2nd ABAP program only after the first one has run successfully.

How to Schedule SAP background job at OS Level

Hi All,
Can Anyone tell me how to Schedule SAP background job at OS Level (unix).
Regards,
Anil

Hi Anil,
I donu2019t know your requirements, anyway itu2019s possible to setup your SAP job in order to start after an event, and after that you can get the event triggered from the Operating System in the following way:
- log into you Operating System with the SIDadm user id (at the Operating System level) and go to directory /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run
- Run the SAPEVT executable as follows:
sapevt YOUR_EVENT -t pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/DEV_DVEBMGS00_server001 nr=01
This will raise the event, and cause the job scheduled within SAP to execute.
You can periodically execute this job with crontab.

How to schedule a background job in realtime

Hi,
Can you tell me how to schedule a background job in realtime.
give some example scenerios in scheduling the background jobs in realtime.
Thanks.
sam.

And also.....
There are two ways for you to handle,
one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,
secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.
Find below steps in doing both:
Procedure 1:
1. Goto Trans -> SM36
2. Define a job with the program and variant if any
3. Click on start condition in application tool bar
4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time
5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"
6. Next click on Period Values
7. Select "Other Period"
8. Now give '15' for Minutes
9. Save the job
Procedure 2 via Program:
Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.
DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,
L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
IMPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_CREATE_JOB = 1
INVALID_JOB_DATA = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
OTHERS = 4.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
SUBMIT ZTEMP2 VIA JOB 'ZTEMP2' NUMBER P_JOBCNT
TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
WITH DESTINATION = 'HPMISPRT'
WITH IMMEDIATELY = SPACE
WITH KEEP_IN_SPOOL = 'X' AND RETURN.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
EXPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
STRTIMMED = 'X'
PRDMINS = 15
IMPORTING
JOB_WAS_RELEASED = L_RELEASE
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_START_IMMEDIATE = 1
INVALID_STARTDATE = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
JOB_CLOSE_FAILED = 4
JOB_NOSTEPS = 5
JOB_NOTEX = 6
LOCK_FAILED = 7
INVALID_TARGET = 8
OTHERS = 9.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

BAPI for Scheduling a background job

Hi all,
is there any bapi for scheduling a background job?
i mean can we do background job using bapi
If not how can we create a bapi for scheduling a background job.
Thanks & Regards,
Azhar

Hi,
Use following BAPIs for scheduling a job in background
BAPI_XBP_JOB_OPEN - This BAPI solves the first step in scheduling a job in the R/3 background processing system. You can create the job with this method.
Using additional BAPI calls BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_ABAP_STEP and BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_EXT_STEP, you can add job steps to the job.
With the BAPI call BAPI_XBP_JOB_CLOSE, you can finish defining the job and transfer it to the background processing system with the status Scheduled without start date.
You have execute the job with the BAPI calls BAPI_XBP_JOB_START_IMMEDIATELY or BAPI_XBP_JOB_START_ASAP.
I hope it would help you.

Venkatram

How to de-schedule a background job?

Dear all,
     I have scheduled a background ABAP report titled ZHRWFIT19 at SM36 to trigger a workflow.
     Initially I scheduled this background job to 9 A.M.
     Later I changed to schedule this background job to 10 A.M at SM37.
     Now my workflow triggers twice i.e., at 9 A.M. once and 10 A.M once.
     I want it to start at 10 A.M. only.Though I changed the schedule time to 9 A.M. to 10 A.M, still my background job triggers the
     workflow at 9 A.M. and 10 A.M.
     How to de-schedule this background report at 9 A.M.?
     Please suggest for which I will be grateful forever.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh

Dear Shastri,
         Thank you so much for your reply.
         As you have rightly pointed, I have 2 entries with same background job at SM37.That's why my workflow triggers twice.Now I want to permanently delete the background job entry at SM37 which triggers my workflow at 9 A.M.
        I couldn't delete this entry at SM37 permanently.Please suggest me how to permanently delete the entry that triggers the workflow at 9 A.M., for which I will grateful.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh

Scheduling a Background Job for PM/CO Settlements (KO8G)

Hi All,
I've created variants for settlements of PM & CO orders using transaction KO8G. Now I want to schedule a background job using TCode SM36. What program name/ABAP name should I use for settlements when scheduling background jobs?
Regards,
Tso

Hello Tso,
Try transaction SCMO which provides you the option to set
the start date to finish date and can also set the start time and
finish time and allows you to specify the variant to be used.
When in transaction KO8G fill out the fields as you wish them for
the background job and then same the selection as a variant. There is
an option to have the variant for background jobs and save the variant
then you can specify this variant in the SCMO screen.
SCMO is the sceduele manager which will allow you to scehedule many
jobs as necessary.
Some notes:
332149 SCMA: Required workflow settings
325118 Schedule Manager: link customer-specific reports
317601 Schedule Manager: Customer reports for multilevel worklist
332149 SCMA: Required workflow settings
891042 SCHEDMAN: Automatic start of several flow definitions
I hope this helps.

Lucas

Hi prem
this is complte procedure for ur requirment.
Scheduling Background Jobs
Use
You can define and schedule background jobs in two ways from the Job Overview:
Directly from Transaction SM36. This is best for users already familiar with background job scheduling.
The Job Scheduling Wizard. This is best for users unfamiliar with SAP background job scheduling. To use the Job Wizard, start from Transaction SM36, and either select Goto ® Wizard version or simply use the Job Wizard button.
Procedure
Call Transaction SM36 or choose CCMS ® Jobs ® Definition .
Assign a job name. Decide on a name for the job you are defining and enter it in the Job Name field.
Set the jobu2019s priority, or "Job Class":
High priority: Class A
Medium priority: Class B
Low priority: Class C
In the Target server field, indicate whether to use system load balancing.
For the system to use system load balancing to automatically select the most efficient application server to use at the moment, leave this field empty.
To use a particular application server to run the job, enter a specific target server.
If spool requests generated by this job are to be sent to someone as email, specify the email address. Choose the Spool list recipient button.
Define when the job is to start by choosing Start Condition and completing the appropriate selections. If the job is to repeat, or be periodic, check the box at the bottom of this screen.
Define the jobu2019s steps by choosing Step, then specify the ABAP program, external command, or external program to be used for each step.
Save the fully defined job to submit it to the background processing system.
When you need to modify, reschedule, or otherwise manipulate a job after you've scheduled it the first time, you'll manage jobs from the Job Overview.
pls give points if it is usefull

Changing the file format of spool output when scheduling a background job.

Hello Experts,
I have an issue. It is related to Spool output format. I created a job for one report program for which the output is a list output. I have added one recipient in the 'Spool list recipient' while creating the job SM36. After the job is finished the spool output is sent to the recipient mail id as .htm format as an attachment. But the attachment should be excel sheet or text file. No coding in the program should be used to convert the file format. Only settings in the spool while creating job should be manipulated. Please help me in solving this issue.
Regards.

Hi Sunil,
You can use the logic for converting spool to PDF using program : RSTXPDFT4 . Alternatively you can use FM: CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF . In this FM you need to pass the Spool id .
u can make use of these FM's SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
Check out the following wiki:

hope this will use full to you.
Thanks!!

Some records are missing in the mail, when scheduled a background job.

There is a Z report, which will display some details from SD, MM , WM every day , and the same thing need to be mailed to the user through background Job.
Issue is that spool is correct and it is missing some records ( Billing due list ), even internal table have records and displayed in the spool , in the mail it says
No Entries Found.
Is there any chance of debugging background job.
Good thing is that when executed in foreground it is working fine. Both mail and report display.

EM_BODY = '4) VF04 -- Processing Billing document due list.'.
APPEND EM_BODY.
EM_BODY = ' '.
APPEND EM_BODY.
IF IT_FINAL3[] IS INITIAL.
    EM_BODY = '        No Entry Found'.
    APPEND EM_BODY.
    EM_BODY = ' '.
    APPEND EM_BODY.
ELSE.
    CONCATENATE 'Delivery No' 'Created By' 'Created On'
                 'Reason' INTO HEAD SEPARATED BY '     '.
    EM_BODY = HEAD.
    APPEND EM_BODY.
    EM_BODY = ' '.
    APPEND EM_BODY.
    CLEAR V_TEXT.
    CLEAR ITEM.
    LOOP AT IT_FINAL3.
      CONCATENATE IT_FINAL3-VBELN IT_FINAL3-ERNAM IT_final3-ERDAT
                  IT_FINAL3-RESO INTO ITEM SEPARATED BY '     '.
      V_TEXT = ITEM.
      EM_BODY = V_TEXT.
      APPEND EM_BODY.
    ENDLOOP.
    EM_BODY = ' '.
    APPEND EM_BODY.
ENDIF.
This is the part where it is failing, where it_final3[] is initial.
but whereas in the spool i can view those records.
