Spool request starts later than job

Hello ,
a job started at 21:00. The first statement of the ABAP was a write-Statement (Write sy-uzeit)
The corresponding spool was generated at 23:00. The job stopped at 2:00
Can someone explain this? I have no idea
Thanks and best regards
Simone

Have you set the job class to "A" ? i.e. high priority?

Requested start time during job scheduling population in local time.

Hello Experts,
Could you please help on the issue.
Requested start time during job scheduling populated with local time even though we have assigned the GMT time zone.
Could you please help , how to change the settings of request start time calender icon to populate the GMT time.
thanks,
Suresh.

Hello Gerben,
Thanks for the reply, even though the default time zone set as GMT in user settings, the requested start time calender pop up the local time instead of GMT time.
Previously requested start time poped up the GMT time, we have observed this change once we have ran the redwood script for time window elements change and imported some of the job definitions, applications & time windows from other system.
Below is the script we have ran thought shell script
Script Fuctionality
1. Take the mentioned time window
2. iteratate thought the time window elements and add 1 hour to the "time to day from" & "time to day to" parameters.
3. set the changed parametes to time window and persist the changes.

Once after the script competetion the time window time zone remains in GMT.
Could you please check script once and help us the time zone change caused the by script or not?

WHICH TABLE STORES SPOOL REQUEST GENERATED BY BACKGROUND JOB ?

Background job is generating multiple request.
i am not able to find the table which stores all the spool request for a particular background job.

i know the table for spool request : TSP01
But how should i link it to background job name ?
i want the link between background job name and spool request generated by it......
TBTCPV is the view but it stores only one spool request.....rather than multiple spoolreq generated by background job..

Is it possible to have Multiple Spool requests in one batch job overview?

Hi,
While running one of my z program in back ground, there are two spools generated (one by write statement and one by OPEN_FORM statement and both the spools are available in SP01 Transaction), but when i see the job overview in transaction SM37, I only see one spool request (that of the last spool request). Can any body in the group please tell me is it possible to see multiple spool requests in the job overview of one Abap program and if yes, how?
Thank you.
Abinash

Hi Jayanthi,
Thank you for the link. But probably that discussion was also an unsolved one.
Anyway, does any one in the group think that display of multiple spools per one step job is dependent on client / SAP Server setting? Because as evident from the chain of mails in the link provided by Jayanthi, some people say that they see multiple spool requests for one program in batch mode job overview (SM37)? If yes, can some body tell me the required configuration?

Hello Tanuj,
You need to use a page format greater than 255 columns for sure. However still if it does not solve the issue then you may consider using the note 186603.
PS: I guess you are on a higher release than 4.6 C . For this release this note íIt has a text attachment for a report tat allows to display such spool requests.

Alarm starts later than the time set!!

I am still puzzled!
I have a 5800 Xpress Music since almost a year now, regularly updating it to the latest softwares and all, everything was working well until I reached version 30 and then 31 of the updates, somehow, and for some reason a very weird problem started to happen to me! The alarm clock starts off in a later time than the one I set! For example, I set the alarm to 7:00 am, but it starts at 7:05 am! Actually it could start any time from 1-5 minutes later than the actual time set!
Moreover, the snooze! When I snooze the alarm that is already late, it wouldn't snooze for the period I already set! like, I have set the snooze time to be 6 minutes, but, when I press snooze, it would snooze for 10 or even 15 minutes instead!
It's really so weird, I tried to turn off automatic time update, I have even changed the SIM card, but nothing is working! it seems a bug in the new software because everything was fine before!
Please if anyone could help me don't hesitate!

Not only that but timed profiles don't expire at the right time either and scheduled backups don't happen.
Right now there is no solution. The firmware is buggy and that's all there is to it.
We have to wait for an update. The phone was only released about a year ago so there's hope yet that Nokia will release further updates.

How to get a graphical display of spool request after a batch job?

Hi all,
I have scheduled a bunch of batch jobs. When I run sm37 to look at the finished jobs, I can see that there is a "papirus like ikon" in the second column, Ln, (the one on the right from the job names) for some of the jobs, but not for the most of them.
Now when I, in sm37, mark this job for which I have an "papirus like ikon", press a "Spool" icon on top of the screen, then mark one step and press the "google icon" I get an output of what job performed in that step. That output usually gives a quite good information of what the program did (e.g. Nr of lines deleted, OP released).
Now my question is how do I get that spol output for the rest of the jobs as well?
Thanks and Kind Regards,
Armin

Hi Thomas,
As you said, the OTF is stored as is in the spool file, and you can read it using the C calls, or use RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB function module for example.
Note that using SP01, you can send a spool via a menu entry, which corresponds to function module RSPO_SPOOLJOB_TO_OFFICE.
Best regards

ICal's day won't start later than 12noon

my work day starts at 5pm and ends around midnight - iCal only has options for midnight to noon (a twelve hour period) which eliminates anyone who's day starts after noon.
any help?

Hi,
I had the same problem, not only with ical but also with adress book. I checked my Library/Fonts folder and found three font suitcase files with the following name:
ÇcÇeÇoä®í‡ó¨
After dragging all three to trash and trying to empty it I could only remove 2 of them because obviously one was "still in use", it is the one mentioned above. So I put it back. Since then both ical and adress book work normal again and do no longer disappear.
I have no idea which application installed that funny font, I did install MS Office 2004. Otherwise I run an i-Mac G-4 under Leopard 10.5.1
Maybe some of you can fix the problem this way. Greetings from Switzerland, Alex

Exchange online defrag starts later than I expect!

My Exchange 2007 database online defrag is a bit strange.<o:p></o:p>
Every evening it never completes so it picks up from where it left off the day
before, which is not a problem.<o:p></o:p>
I have changed the schedule so that its opportunity window is from 01:00 am to 8 am<o:p></o:p>
However it does not start until 5.30 am, and then finishes promptly at 8 am!<o:p></o:p>
Is there something I am missing? <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Thanks everyone!<o:p></o:p>

Hi Kevin,
When exchange online defrag process starts, it will generate new event log entries that help you examine the progress of the scheduled. I recommend you refer to these logs to verify if the schedule have been delayed.

Print spool requests by background job

Hi,
we want to print spool requests by a background job. Do you know any abap program to do this.? I search at the programs RSPO... , but i can't find anyone to do this.
Can anybody help me.

Hi,
i found a report for this issue. You can use the report RSPO0015

Several SP01 spool request that need to preserve

I have a couple of spool request that I would like to preserve and keep them from getting deleted. Is there a flag that is set to ensure specific spool are not deleted by cleanup jobs?
Also how can I find the spool at the unix level, becuase I may be able to change the permission on it to never be removed until next year.
Thanks
Jexum Wildfire

Hello Jexum,
The spool cleanup reports which are run daily are generally setup to delete spools based on the creation date. There is the option to run the cleanup jobs such that they delete based on deletion data (a modifiable parameter of the spool request); however more than likely the cleanup job is not defined that way in your system and looks at creation time. This means that the only way to avoid having the spool deleted is to modify the TSP01-RQCRETIME and TSP01-RQDELTIME on the corresponding spool request number such that the year portion is some high value:
RQCRETIME : 2099101022114500
RQDELTIME: 2099101822114500
Where I've changed 2011 to 2099 in the first 4 characters of the fields. The spool rquest will be retained until you manually delete it or the the year 2099 comes. Unfortunately this method requires direct modification of table tsp01 and not sure if you'll be able to do that in your environment. I don't know of another way.

Nathan

Cleaning spool requests - report RSPO1041

Hi experts,
We're using SRM 5.5 and we've scheduled the reports
- BBP_GET_STATUS_2 ( every 2 minutes)
- CLEAN_REQREQ_UP
As a consequence, in the SPOOL we are having many requests.
In order to delete the spool requests, we have one job for the report RSPO1041, which is defined to delete spool requests from report bbp_get_status_2. In addition, we have 2 more jobs to clean the spool, using the same report RSPO1041, but with a generic variant.
However, those jobs are not being successfully cleaning the spool, as the spool requests are not being deleted.
So, my question is, is there any reason for the report bbp_get_status_2 generate spool requests?
And if it is really necessary, is there any other way to clean the spool? Or there is any other reason to the RSPO1041 is not cleaning the spool requests as it should?
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Andreia Nascimento

- BBP_GET_STATUS_2 ( every 2 minutes)
- CLEAN_REQREQ_UP
Normally CLEAN_REQREQ_UP doesn't generate any spools, BBP_GET_STATUS_2 does and it does have the reason to generate spool as you would want a comprehensive report on the synchronization between SRM and R/3 documents.
In order to delete the spool requests, we have one job for the report RSPO1041, which is defined to delete spool requests from report bbp_get_status_2. In addition, we have 2 more jobs to clean the spool, using the same report RSPO1041, but with a generic variant.
Why having multiple jobs for the same purpose? I would just schedule one job that manage the cleaning of spools with a desired variant for report RSPO1041. And there should not be a reason for it not to be cleaning up accordingly, unless the job itself is not running into the status "finished". Having multiple jobs involving report RSPO1041 with different variants also increases the complexity for your tracking of its effectiveness.

Creation of Spool Request

Hi All,
System is not creating the spool request for the background job. Two days before the job was running correctly generating the spool request. When I checked today..system is not creating the spool request..
There is no changes in the authorization profile of the user-id. Also no changes in the program were made. So what may be the possible reason for system not creating the spool. There are entries which suits the condition for the creation of spool.
Thanks in Advance....

Hi,
It could be a number ranges issue, please check trx. SNRO and see if the number ranges are specified as correctly, otherwise please extend, And also check if the batch Job 'SAP_REORG_SPOOL' is running to clear the spool requests which are already being processed, Job 'SAP_REORG_SPOOL' has to run on daily basis. Hope this will solve the issue.

Link between spool request & abap program

Hi all,
I m looking for the link table between a spool request and the corresponding job and abap program.
I want to select all spool requests generated via een job via een abap program.
Some suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
Spool request is a document for which a print function has been selected. However, it has not yet been output to a printer or another device. The output data for the print document is stored partly formatted in a data store until an output request is created, that is, until it is sent to a particular output device.
The spool system uses a spool request to store the print data temporarily and to access it. The data is stored in a temporary format. You can also display the print document. The system automatically assigns a 10-digit ID number to a spool request.
Spool requests can be viewed via tcode SP01, the number will be there, programatiically it is sometimes populated in the system field SY-SPONO.
It will take input parameters through the selection screen variants and process the code normally as foreground when we are writing the output to list it will generate the spool.
Reward Points if found helpfull..
Cheers,
Chandra Sekhar.

How to create a spool request

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me how to create a spool request for a background job programatically
Regards
Yathish
Message was edited by: Yathish
Rich thanks for your reply,
But there is no write statement in the backbround job. Can u please explain me how to do it in detail
Thanks in advance
Yathish
Yathish Gundlupet

That's right, in order for a program to produce a spool request, it either must create a list output using WRITE statements, or it must produce a sapscript or smartform output.
In the first case, a simply WRITE statement at the end of your program will work.
WRITE:/ 'Program has completed successfully'.
