Spool Output status

Hello Experts,
Spool request created but printer output status shows that in SP01
"-" list contains no data
Checked the below links says that
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/78/4d22426adddf2ce10000000a1550b0/content.htm
u2212 => Spool request has not yet been sent to the host spool system (no output request exists){code{code}
My end user complaining that his print-outs he created with output device LOCL are not printed .
Please let us know why its shows "list contains no data" and cause of this issue?.
Thanks
Malai

Hi Thiru,
Go to your printer option. remove check at
1. print immediately
2. delete after output.
then your spool will be displayed in SP01.
The print dialog box (where one specifies the printer name) has some options including a checkbox that says "delete when completed" (or something similar - near the "print immediate" checkbox). If that is selected the spool will be deleted, upon successful output. If you want the spool to remain available then make sure that checkbox is not being selected.

Spool History Status is complete for Incorrect email or Fax

Hi All,
We have configured mail and fax for a Ouput type. The spool history for this Output shows "completed" even if we give a Wrong email id or Fax number.
Can anyone suggest,where can we check this?-----
Checked in the Output Device configuration..
"Do not Query host spooler for output status" is not checked. If this is the problem..
Then why am i not able to replicate the issue,when the same setting is available in Assurance.
But the issue could nt be replicated. Kindly enlighten..

Welcome to the forum.
The first landing page is asking for a Fonera login (which we are not).
The second is asking for your primary BT username and password (BT email address and password) by which route we log in as BT BB customers.
To log in therefore, you have to jump from the first landing page to the second. Just create a bookmark for the second landing page on your browser.
Hope that helps

Not generating a spool output in the background job

Hi Team,
I have an alv report and If I schedule the program using SM36 transaction it is not generating the spool ouput.
If I run the same program in background mode when we use se38 and select execute in background in program menu and it works successfully and generates alv grid list in the spool output.
But, user wants to schedule the job in sm36 and check the same output in spool. Please advise why it is not generating.
Note:I am using the cl_salv_table=>factory method to generate the output.
Thanks in advance,
Sunil Kumar.

This is not really an ABAP question and you might want to ask your Basis admin for assistance. But I believe that spool will not be generated if you don't specify print parameters for a step. When you define the step in SM36, make sure to specify the print parameters.

ALV list display in a Background job - Spool output

Hi,
We are currently working on a report scheduled to be run in the background job, and the ALV list is displayed in the spool output.
ALV list in the spool does not look the same as front run job, the column headers are all crowded together, and there is no grid in-between different columns or rows. It's hard to read.
Is there a way to add grid for this kind of output?
Thanks!

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!!

Page breaks appear in the spool output of report when run in the background

Hi All,
Report is using fm 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' to display the report. parameters passed to this fm for display are :it_fieldcat,is_layout,it_events,t_outtab.
Page breaks appear in the spool output when report is run in the background.These page breaks needs to be removed. When executed in the background, the excel extract should be the same as if pulling directly from the report itself.
How to remove the page breaks in background?
Thanks & Regards,
Abhishek Singh

Hi
You can use the below code , which the reprt run in background. If you run the report in background thenyou need to use 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
if sy-batch = ' '.
call 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.
else.
call 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'.
endif.
if you are using OO alv then write this code..
CALL METHOD cl_gui_alv_grid=>offline
RECEIVING e_offline = off.
IF off IS INITIAL.
CREATE OBJECT g_custom_container
EXPORTING container_name = g_container.
ENDIF.

Extended classic scenario local PO Output status

Hello all ,
Need some inputs on extended classic scenario local PO Output.
My requirement is , when ever the put get process successfully in SRM , I need to send a mail to requester saying that u201C for this particular output got processed successfully u201C
I have business requirement, we need to run this report every 30 min, This report has to pull out the all the PO number from the current time to past 30 min, for the output got processed successfully.
To meet this requirement, I am using the output log entry table PPFTTRIGG where we can see the all the PO with the status and time stamp also.
But some how, this table maintaining incorrect time stamp.
Ex: If I create PO, process the PO output, and if I see the time stamp for this PO, its showing as 10 min before the current time.
Did anybody come across this issue? Or can anybody suggest me any alternative approach for this.
I mean is there any function module/ table available, which will give PO Output status also.
Can you please give me any pointers for this?
Seeking your help on this.
Wish you a advance happy new year.
Thank you.

Hi Latha,
Did you have a look at the standard report RSPPFPROCESS. For PO's please pass the below selection screen values along with the appropiate date & time details:
Application = BBP_PD
Action Profile = BBP_PD_PO
Then regarding the time difference, please make sure that the application server time is sync with the actual time of the time-zone. This could also be a reason.
Then what you can do is to clone the RSPPFPROCESS program and add the email notification logic on that.
Please have a look at the BADI BBP_PROCESS_PO, this can be of some help for your requirement.
Hope this solves your problem.
Regards

Spool output not appearing on one page

Hello Experts,
When program runs in foreground, I am getting correct output i.e. ALV blocks are displayed on one page only.
But when running same program in background, I got output in spool and when looked at spool output that time I realized that the ALV blocks are getting printed on new page.
So instead of displaying 4 pages it is displaying 8 pages in spool.
I ran the same report on quality in FOreground as well as background and output appears to be correct.
But not sure why it is giving distorted (printed on new pages) in SPOOL output.
Appreciate your help.
Thank you.
Saurabh

HI Saurabh,
Check the Layout which you are passing which scheduling the job. It seems to be a different layout as compared to other system & hence the issue.
Thanks,

Spool output in Excel sheet format

Hi,
We have background job , which creates a spool output in Internet Explorer format. Customer needs this in Excel format.
Wondering, if any authorizations to be changed for file type? or this is a set in program level?
Thanks,
Sam

Yes....Currently the customer email address is added to "Spool list Recipient" in SM37. This way, spool output is sent to customer through email. Currently it is in HTML format.

Hello, How do I tell sql+ to spool output file from windows to Unix server?

Hello, How do I tell sql+ to spool output file from windows to Unix server?
I am new to SQL+ and just learned how to spool the file. But file is saved in my local windows enviroment and since it's 2GB in size...I want to spool it directly to another remote unix server.
Pls answer in detail... I have been to most of the thread and didn't see relevant answer to above question.
Am I suppose to develope some script which FTP the spool file directly to the server I want to
or
i Have to use UTL_FILE Package ?
Thanks for reply

You may not be able to...
SQL*Plus can only spool to the local machine. If you have mapped a directory on the Unix server from your Windows machine, you can specify that directory in your SPOOL command.
You could telnet to the Unix server, run SQL*Plus there, and spool the file to a local (Unix) directory.
If the Unix server is also the Oracle database server, you could use the UTL_FILE package rather than using SQL*Plus to spool a file.
If the Unix server is also an FTP server, you could also FTP the file from your local machine to the server.
Of course, I would tend to re-examine a requirement to regularly generate a 2 GB text file. It seems likely that there is a better way...

Wondering, if any authorizations to be changed for file type? or this is a set in program level?
Thanks,

Hi Sam,
This need to be fixed at the program level only,so you need an ABAPer to make the changes in out put. There is nothing to do with authorizations.
