Spool not generated in BAckground Job

Hi,
I am trying to schedule RSNAST00 in a background job. My problem is that when the job gets finished i cannot see a spool for the output, any pointers to this issue will be appreciated.
Regards,
Sharadendu

Go to transaction SM37 and check job log.
It is possible that something is going wrong in your program. I would suggest you to debugg background job.
To debugg just select job in SM37 and in command window(Where we type T codes) type JDBG and press enter. This will open debugger. Press F7 for approx 4-5 times. Now your program will be opened in debugg and you check why spool is not generated.
let me know ig this helps.

Job finished successfully but Spool not generated(no spool icon)

I am generating a report which . When the program in scheduled, the job completed successfully but spool icon is not available. Could any one suggest us the reason why spool has not generated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
When executing report, Spool gets generated only when an Output is generated. Please check if output exits for the selection criteria.
Also check any special mechanisms are used that diverse the ouput when executed in background.

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.

Birendra

HI Venkat,
Are you scheduling the job immediately or after some time?
Are you getting any error log in the job overview?

Spool not generated in some condition

Requirement :Developing a data transfer program. Approach used is Call Transaction in S mode.
In some cases(if Receiving Storage Location is PKGX) I need to load only MB11 and other cases I need to load 3 transaction sequentially MB11 creates Mat. Doc. No. which in turn passed to the LT06 to create TO(Transfer Order) and the TO passed to LT12 to confirm TO.
Problem When I run it in background(it generates report in foreground), job finished successfully, data is loaded into system and spool status shown as error ONLY IF ALL THE 3 TRANSACTIONS CALLED AND LOADED.
I debugged the Batch Job(using t-code JDBG) line by line output,contents are writen to output but at the end spool goes into error and report is not visible.
In all other cases like messages/outputs due to record not correct or/and only MB11 is to be processed, spool is generated with status Waiting and report is visible.

Hello All,
I checked in SM58. It showed an error.
I checked my function module attributes. It was normal. Changed it to Remote enabled.
Now spool is generated.

Hi,
All spool requests will be stored in TSP01 table
TSP01 - Spool Requests
field name for Spool request number is RQIDENT
Hi,
Take a look at OSS Note 422136 which states:
"2. You can only store one spool request even if a step generates several spool requests during processing. The application is responsible for a "spool overview" in this case. If a step generates several spool requests during processing, only one request can be stored. In this case, the application report should issue the number with a message when writing a spool request so that it is then displayed in the job log."
Also take a look at OSS Note 519059 which further supports the case that you must capture the individual spool numbers as they are being created (i.e. within the job step's program). The note contains the following:
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

Submit background job for a report

Submit background job in APEX -- count on all_jobs return shadow jobs.

Hi, I am trying to submit a job in APEX. The setups are as below:
On Submit - After Computation and Validations
Run Process: Once Per Page Visit
Process:
DECLARE
v_instance_cnt NUMBER;
job_no NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(0)
INTO v_instance_cnt
FROM user_jobs
WHERE what LIKE 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh%';
IF NVL(v_instance_cnt,0) = 0 THEN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(job_no, 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh('''||:G_BSYS_USER_NAME||''');');
:P3_MESSAGE:= 'Job has submitted. Number is '||TO_CHAR(job_no);
ELSE
:P3_MESSAGE :='The refresh is in progress. Please wait ... ('||to_char(v_instance_cnt);
END IF;
END;
Now, if I run the process, the :P3_MESSAGE message returns "'The refresh is in progress. Please wait ... (5)." . This is due to the count is 5 instead of expected 0.
If I SELECT count(*) FROM dba_jobs WHERE lower(what) LIKE 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh%'; in SQLPLUS, it returns 0. Same result from all_jobs as well.
My suspect is that it returns job counts include those that has been removed before. Yet, how APEX can see this? Does APEX use some special way to look into Job queue?
Please help
Thanks

From the looks of it, the job is being submitted and run - although I would check the elapsed time to see if it's anywhere close to the 20-30 minutes you anticipate. Assuming not, I would suggest that the problem is in one of the following areas:
1. The way in which you are passing in the arguments is not conforming to the expected input format or values and it's therefore not executing as expected.
2. Your process implictly relies on the state of your apex application in some manner, which is not being reproduced within the procedure when the job is submitted.
In the former case, I would check the procedure's specification against the page items types being passed in - you might have to explicitly convert some of your arguments into the appropriate type
In the latter case, well... bearing in mind that we don't know what your procedure looks like and it's therefore kind of difficult to diagnose the problem, you'll possibly need to pass your session information into the procedure as additional parameters and re-create your session from within the code.

Getting error "Codepage could not be determined" in background job

Hello Friends,
I am running a background job with a variant and the job get cancelled with the following error message.
Codepage could not be determined
Message no. FES025
Please give your valuable comments.
Thanks,
Senthil

Hi,
Check the oss note 765763(Setting the upload/download codepage for a SAPGUI connection) released for this purpose, as per the documentation of this note, you need to modify the standard program LSFESF03 in order to get rid of this error,
Also check the note 882961(File download: codepage conversion error FES024)
Hope this helps,

GUI_DOWNLOAD can not be used in Background Job?

Hi,
 I tried to use GUI_DOWNLOAD to output a TXT file to my local disk. If I just execute my program, it is successful. I can find the file on my D disk. But if I try to scheculd a backgound job, it will fail. It job log says 'Could not ascertain code page Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE'.
So I don't know whether the GUI_DOWNLOAD support background job, or I have to find another FM or method to output my TXT file.
 Thank you.
Best Regards,
Yan

Hi Yan Chen
While executing the program in background, we can not download to presentation server(i.e local disk). We have to download to application server using commands like OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER & CLOSE DATASET statements.
Once downloaded to application server, we can bring the file to local disk using transactions like CG3Y.
Sample Coding for your reference:
open dataset <dsn> for output in text mode encodind default.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
write:/ 'Unable to open file:', <dsn>.
else.
loop at itab into <wa>.
 trasnfer <wa> to <dsn>.
endloop.
close dataset <dsn>.
endif.

Spool report line width in background jobs

Hi All,
I wrote a report and specified the line size in the report header:
REPORT /sappssrm/option_handler
NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING
LINE-SIZE 185.
I want to run this report as background job and get a spool list with results of the report. I expected the width of the spool output to be well defined and it works in one system. However, in another systen, the line / page width is much smaller, and the system inserts line breaks in the output splitting my lines into two which causes very ugly results.
It seems that the LINE-SIZE specified in the report header doesn't affect the output width in every system.
Can anyone advice?
Regards
Wolfgang

Hi Siggi,
thanks for your reply. Actually I changed that already yesterday...
But I found out what it was:
It seems, the background job keeps old versions of the program, even if you import a new program version. I created a new job with the same program and it worked.
Thanks again and best regards
Wolfgang

Spool not generated when creating the TO from TR

Hello,
I am facing a issue while creating Transfer order. My scenario is like below:
1) Create Goods issue MB1A with two items
2) Create Transfer order from Material document
3) TO is created with 2 items
4) But spool is generated only for one item.
As per my analysis, the TO line item with storage unit which starts with 3* gives a spool while the second item with storage unit which starts 9* does not generate a spool.
But when I print the TO manually in LT31, I am able to see the spool for both items.
Please help me if you have any idea.
Thanks & Regards,
Sainath

Hello,
Please see the attached spool output when TO is printed manually LT31.
However, when the TO is printed automatically, one spool will be displayed in SP02.
Please let me know if you need any more clarifications.
Thanks,
Sainath
