Scheduling /VIRSA/RE_DNLDROLES in background Mode

Hi,
I need to shcedule the job to download all the roles in the background mode for /VIRSA/RE_DNLDROLES, as I am not able to complete the execution by running it in foreground. Apparently in the batch mode this tcode does not write the required files to the folder nor does it generate any spool. I checked the note 1252032 it also seems to suggest that we should be running this in the background.
Any ideas why the files wont download in the batch mode.
Thanks!

Hi Barath
if you are not using any gui_download function module then u can schedule a job by hitting F9 in the selection screen...
to schedule a job u will use sm36 and schedule ..

GUI functions (like GUI_UPLOAD) will not work in background, they need an actual Gui active.
There are plenty of threads on this subject, search also in the wiki for threads/guide like [Working with files |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/Workingwithfiles] or [Communication to Presentation Server in Background Mode|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/9831750a-0801-0010-1d9e-f8c64efb2bd2&overridelayout=true] or [Working with FTP Server |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/WorkingwithFTP+Server]

Why can't we use GUI_Download in background mode...........

Hi experts as per the requirement my program should run at specific time in background mode, it need to upload the Personal numbers from the input file and for those personal numbers extract the data from multiple tables. but this report shd run in background.
and download the output in the form of flat file.
as i'm running in background mode can't use the F.M GUI_Download and GUI_Upload.
can any one guide me how to solve this issue and why can't we use these F.M. if we can't use then what is the alternative to run in background mode.

A program that runs in background mode doesn't have any connection to a frontend. After all, you can schedule it to run at a time where your frontend computer is not running.
In this case you have to load your files on the application server (or a mount point) and use the FMs C13Z_FILE_DOWN(UP)LOAD_ASCII(BINARY)

Is it possible upload local file to internal table in background mode?

Hi, all,
Is it possbile to upload local file(not server file) to internal table in background mode.
If possbile ,please tell me detail . Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lily

Hello,
This is possible.
If you report has to be executed in background using schedule Job. Then the file path should be constant and it can be hard coded in the report itself while populationg the internal table.
Then create a variant for your report and use that variant in the job.
This will solve your problem I guess.

Run smartforms in background mode

Hi
Can anybody tell me, can we execute smartforms in background mode. Please tell me. Can we take printout from the spool.
Smartform have driver program.
Thanks

hi,
Use
You can not only evaluate queries online, but also print them in the background. In the Reporting Agent of the Administrator Workbench, you can define the display of the query data as the setting for background printing. You can make as many various settings as you want for printing a query in the background. The settings are then brought together in scheduling packets and scheduled for background printing.
Prerequisites
You have defined a query in the Business Explorer Analyzer that you now want to print in the background. You have called up the Administrator Workbench to do this.
You can only print out queries with key figures in structures. If you have defined a query with a key figure in the filter and want to print this query, you must change the definition of the query so that the key figure is in a structure to be printed.
You can only schedule queries with entered variables for background printing if the required variable entry/entries have been saved as query variants.
Procedure
Defining Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Choose the Reporting Agent from the Administrator Workbench.
Navigate in the left-hand tree to the query you want, and, using the right mouse button, choose New Setting. You get to the "New Reporting Agent Setting" dialog box.
Enter a technical name and a description.
Choose Print in the background from the General tabstrip.
Choose the tabstrip Print Settings from the newly added tabstrips.
Determine the print settings that you want to make. See also: Print Settings
Choose the Print Layout tabstrip.
Decide how you want to set the following print areas:
Cover sheet
Page header
Table header
Table
Page footer
Last page
See also:
Defining the Print Layout
Choose Activate.
Creating Scheduling Packets and Assigning Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Once you have made the Reporting Agent setting for printing in the background, you have to assign your setting to a scheduling packet for the background run.
Creating a scheduling packet
Go back to the Reporting Agent Scheduler, and, in the right-hand Scheduling packets tree, choose the Change pushbutton.
Select the Print in the background node, and choose Create new packet from the context menu (right mouse button). You get to the Create Scheduling Packet dialog box.
Specify a name and a description, and choose Save.
Assigning Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Navigate in the left-hand tree, Reporting Agent Settings, to the Reporting Agent setting you want to use for printing in the background.
Using drag-and-drop, drag the Reporting Agent setting that you want to use into the right-hand tree, and assign it to the corresponding scheduling packet.
If the Reporting Agent setting refers to a query with variables, then you need to assign a variant:
Select the Reporting Agent setting.
Using the right mouse button, choose Assign variants from the context menu. A dialog box containing the variants for this query appears.
Choose the variant you want to use.
Choose Continue.
You have the option of maintaining variants in the Reporting Agent (in both the left and right-hand trees).
Select the Reporting Agent setting you want to use.
Choose Maintain variants from the context menu (right mouse button).
Note that you always assign Reporting Agent settings for printing in the background to a corresponding scheduling packet for printing in the background.
To avoid confusion with Reporting Agent settings for exception reporting, you are able to filter according to these two functions in the left-hand menu. The symbols for Exception and Print, in the left-hand tree, also identify the settings.
Scheduling a Packet as a Job
In the right-hand tree, select the scheduling packet you want to use.
Using the right mouse-button, choose Schedule from the context menu. You get to the Change Job RA (name of the scheduling packet) dialog box.
The name of the job is made up of RA for Reporting Agent, and the name of the scheduling packet.
Specify the start date and the repetition period for the job.
See also:
Scheduling Background Jobs in the documentation for the BC Computing Center Management System.
If you want to check the status of the scheduled background job, choose the Jobs pushbutton above the right-hand tree in the Reporting Agent Scheduler.
Hope this helps, Do reward.

BAPI in Background mode

Hi,
How to schedule BAPI in Background mode.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Madhavi

Hi,
When you create a batch input session, it remains in the batch input queue until it is explicitly started. Session processing can be started in two ways:
An on-line user can start the session using the batch input menu options. (To access the batch input options, choose System>Services>Batch Input.)
You can submit the background job RSBDCSUB to start a session in background processing. If several sessions have the same name, RSBDCSUB starts them all.
It's possible to coordinate the generation and execution of a session in the background processing system.
You can, for example, schedule both the batch input program and RSBDCSUB in the background. If you designate the batch input job as the predecessor for RSBDCSUB, then RSBDCSUB will be started automatically when the batch input job successfully completes.
Alternatively, you can schedule both the batch input program and RSBDCSUB as job steps in a single background job. In this case, however, RSBDCSUB is started even if the batch input program should terminate abnormally.
Hope this will help you.

RAR Risk Analysis Issue in Background Mode - "Failed to Display Result"

Hi,
I have strange problem in RAR.
When I run risk analysis for 20 users in background mode, the job got successful but the spool file is empty. But at the bottom of page there is a message: "Failed to Display Result".
The Job log is showing the following message couple of times:
WARNING: ./virsa/bgJobSpool/19.i (No such file or directory)

But When I try to run for few users (like 6 memebrs where selection criteria is AUDIT*) in same way, the spool details got displayed this time. But the log is showing strange error messages this time:

Hi Alpesh,
You are correct. The issue is due to multi node environment.
But when I tried to define a custom spool folder path: usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance No>/log/virsa/bgJobSpool (in RAR - Miscellaneous - spool files location for background jobs) & run the risk analysis report in background mode, still RAR is saving the spool files in default location only.
Can you suggest me if I am wrongly defining the location of folder?
Should we define the complete location of the folder i.e starting with drive letter or path starting with user/* is sufficient?

FM not executing in background mode sometimes

Hi,
I'm using one Z function module for Production order confirmations which inturn calls 'BAPI_PRODORD_COMPLETE_TECH'.
There is 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' and 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK' also present.
My issue is, this functionality works perfectly fine when I execute the program in foreground mode, but does not go through sometimes when I schedule it in background.
Note : Its not completely skiping the entries in background mode. It works sometimes and sometimes doesn't.
Can anyone comment if they have faced similar issues ?
Regards,
Shiva

Hi !
In my opinion it fails, when there is a popup coming from the BAPI.
We have the issue that when we process in background the orders where a popup should be shown (e.g. the popup asking if setting TECO is OK although reprocessing records exist).
When we reprocess our IDOC (which are calling that BAPI) in BD87, the popup is even shown in BD87 !
Any idea how to tell the BAPI to ignore such messages and still set the TECO ?
Any other way to set the TECO ?
thx a lot !

Schedule Info package in background

Hi,
When I schedule my info package in background mode, it should schedule the job with my BW back ground user .
BW user is the back ground user in mysystem. But my Process Overview shows that it is scheduled as Dialogue there by utiling my dialogue processers.
Kindly let me know the reason behind it.
Regards,
Ahmed

Ok, for bi7, this is the way it works...
when you run an IP in background it will execute a dialog process on the BW side. this process is needed to execute (send the outbound messages) the background job on the R/3 part (with the BW remote user)... in prior releases a background job was also running on the BW side as long as the R/3 load was running, but with the bi7 adaptations it takes less place on bw side, hence performance has improved...

am I missing something?

(PS: I made another topic because none replied the other in 4 days and wasnt solved yet)

Hi!
You didn't find answer for this, because it is not possible. If you run your program in background, it is running on the server, and does not have any connection to your local machine. That's why you can't upload/download in background mode.
You might try to address somehow your local PC, with its IP or MAC address, but I don't think does this task worth so much time.
Run your program in online mode, or if you want to run it in background, then upload your file into the SAP server.

BDC is not working in background mode and working fine in Foreground mode

Hi Experts,
I have created a BDC in SHDB for the transaction code:CWBQM for creating and deleting the record and converted the BDC recording into the program using call transaction. It is working fine in both foreground and background. When I given the same program for users testing one for the user was able to delete the records but Creation is not working in the same BDC. He is able to create the same records in another PC and the problem is only in that PC and only during the creation of the record. When I change the mode to 'A' mode for testing and request the user to execute and it is working fine the records created successfully. What could be the issue ?
Thanks,
Hema

Hello,
While recording BDC in SHDB try setting "Simulate background mode" flag and give a try.

Submit + LIST_FROM_MEMORY in background mode

Hi,
I need to capture the output results from standard program RFKORK00 and hence I designed a wrapper program that calls the standard program.
RFKORK00 generates a report output and I am able to capture the results correctly using the FM LIST_FROM_MEMORY and FM LIST_FROM_ASCI in foreground mode. But when I try to run the same job in background, the FM LIST_FROM_MEMORY does not return any results (I have checked the log by inserting information messages at various points in the program).
I have searched for similar contexts here on SDN and everyone is in agreement that LIST_FROM_MEMORY would work well even in the background mode too but I am unable to find the fault in this case. Could you please help, attached is the code -

      AND RETURN.

Calling a function from a DLL, exectution in background mode.

Dear Experts,
We have created an ABAP report the calls a function from a DLL file. If the report is executed in on-line mode the program calls and executes the function from the DLL, but if the ABAP programa is executed in background mode it doesnt calls the DLL function.
Do you know a way to solve the problem when executing in background mode?
Best regards.
Antonio

Hi Gabriel,
Let me explain in details about my DLL function.
We are importing the business partners from legacy system into the SAP CRM system, so at the moment we created the BP master data via BAPI, I get the name of the BP and this moment I call the function in the DLL file. I export the parameter name and I receive back a simplified string with the name reduced to a code. This code I get back from the dll it is insert in a Z table, so there is no interaction in the screen, all must be executed in background mode, because there are a lot of business partners to be converted in SAP system.
I am sending my code for your considerations.
