Submit a job in background
Hi,
We have a query regarding submission of Jobs in background. If we use JOB_OPEN,JOB_CLOSE in our executable program to submit a job to run this proram with a transaction code and also schedule this job in background using SM36 the what will be the effect?
Hi pankaj,
1. If the program only display some data,
and does not update anything,
then nothing will go wrong.
2. Both programs will run independently of each other,
in background.
regards,
amit m.

How to run a job in background programatically after 10 sec
Hi Forum,

Getting an unusual error message in Compressor 4.1 when I try to submit a job
I'm running Mavericks and have Compressor 4.1 on my Mac Pro along with FCP 10.1. When I submit a job to compressor, I then add the Dolby Digital and Mpeg-2 6.2 Mbps/90. When I hit Start Batch I get this error message
/var/folders/k9/f6fyk4sj4f3_rj2wlrlwx9hr0000gn/T/46BDF064-B30F-4BF1-8D9C-D22DE91 8342B.export-archive
I've tried to uninstall and re-install Compressor but to no avail. What is this error message referring to and how do I rectify it?
Thank you
DrewHi Drew if you haven't resolved this. TRy this to see if the issue is a TRANSIENT object access error instead for submitting directly to Compressor. Do this to isolate any content error defects before making you distribution (older 2 stage workflow)..
in FCPX 10.1, make sure the projects Primary Storyline is completely rendered - select all and cntl+R (render selection or control+shift+R)In FCPX 10.1 watch the background tasks (+9) and wait for all the rendering to be completed.... (make sure no object errors)
in FCPX 10.1 export a master File/Share/Master File (+E) as PRORES 4xx and save it ~/Movies/Drews_final_master.mov (prores)
in Compressor.app V4.1,
create a new BATCH ,
import the MASTER object ~/Movies/Drews_final_master.mov)
(and add your setting and submit it. (dont use FCPX SEND TO COMPRESSOR just yet! until you resolve this issue)
This process will avoid the use of transient file storage areas that seem to be used in the FCPX to COMPRESSOR.
Post your results for others to see

Code to Submit RIMODGEN in the Background
Does anyone know how to submit RIMODGEN in the background? Here's a small clip of my code. I don't think the problem is with my parameters. The program executes but the integration model is not created.
CLEAR gt_params.
PERFORM load_params USING 'I_INCR' 'P' 'I' 'EQ' 'X'. "Dark Mode
PERFORM load_params USING 'I_MODID' 'P' 'I' 'EQ' p_model.
PERFORM load_params USING 'I_LOGSYS' 'P' 'I' 'EQ' p_lsys.
PERFORM load_params USING 'I_APPL' 'P' 'I' 'EQ' 'MATERIALS'.
PERFORM load_params USING 'I_MATINC' 'P' 'I' 'EQ' 'X'.
LOOP AT gt_mara INTO gs_mara.
PERFORM load_params USING 'MA_MATNR' 'S' 'I' 'EQ' gs_mara-matnr.
ENDLOOP.
SUBMIT rimodgen
WITH SELECTION-TABLE gt_params
AND RETURN.
Thanks in advance for any help someone can provide.
MikeCould you please elaborate on your requirement. In general we use SM36 and SM37 for IM creation and scheduling. For IM activation you have to use program RIMODAC2 and create and schedule job using SM36 and SM37
Thanks

Difference between batch job and Background Job
Hi Forum,
Can anyone distinguish between batch job and background job for me please ?
SKHi,
Batch Job:
A batch job is a process that runs in the background, often deferred and unattended, to process data in groups (batch) rather than by individual transactions (e.g. a monthly phone bill rather than a bill for each individual phone call). A batch job executes a sequence of programs and technical instructions that are stored in a command file. Progress and error messages are output to a log file allowing users to determine, at any time, if the batch job completed successfully or identify the cause of the problem. Because batch jobs run in the background they are less visible to the end user.
In a business-computing context, batch job scheduling implies the automatic execution of background tasks (batch jobs) at pre-determined points in time (e.g. every day at 8pm, midday on Wednesday).
3 types of batch job scheduling can be distinguished: native, basic and advanced batch job scheduling.
Most operating systems and some business solutions software come equipped with native batch job scheduling tools that provide a limited service (e.g. Windows Scheduled Tasks, UNIX crontab, SAP CCMS) locally to each installation. However, business processes may span multiple platforms, applications, countries and companies. Their complexity may require much more functional power as provided by basic batch job scheduling including national and regional variations in the working calendar, sequence variations according to the day of the month, triggering of jobs by the successful completion of preceding jobs, elimination of gaps and reduced batch windows. Major benefits of basic batch job scheduling are enhanced productivity, operations reliability and cost-reduction. For e-business applications that require real-time processing, the distance between interactive individual processing and batch processing tends to decrease. Advanced batch job scheduling can handle these advanced requirements: event-driven scheduling for a real-time synchronization with interactive processing, just-in-time scheduling to run operations as soon as possible, cross-platform and cross application services for the entire IT landscape, real-time overall monitoring to track background operations for all applications on all servers.
The standard benefits of batch job scheduling are drastically amplified when job schedulers can handle the end-to-end automation and monitoring requirements for all background operations.
To schedule a back ground job follow the below steps:
1. Use Transaction SM36.
2. Assign a job name.
3. Set the jobs priority, or Job Class:
High --- Class A
Medium --- Class B
Low ---Class C
4. Here you can specify,when the job is to start by choosing Start Condition. If you want the job to repeat, or be periodic, check the box at the bottom.
Else click on the immediate and save this.
5. Now,define the jobs steps by choosing Step.
Here you need to give the ABAP program that has been used and the name of the variant thats being used.
6. Save the fully defined job to submit it to the background processing system.(You need to click save button on the main screen i.e SM36)
7. 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.
8. Release the job so that it can run.
The job, even those scheduled for immediate processing, can not run without first being released.So,do remember to release.
Hope this helps you.

Error while running a job in background
Hi,
I got the following error message while running the job in background.
"Step 001 started .
Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached.
ABAP/4 processor: RAISE_EXCEPTION
Job cancelled"
What is the reason for this error and how to correct it?ALV Grid control is based on the custom controls on the screen. When the program is scheduled in background, it tries to create GUI related front-end objects and hence the error u201CFatal Error u2013 GUI cannot be reachedu201D. This type of problem is common with all the programs that use the ALV grid control to display the output.
Solution:
Whenever we execute this type of programs in background, we should be passing a blank docking container instead of the custom container as parent to our grid control.
The docking container doesnu2019t need any of the custom controls on the screen; instead it attaches an area to any or all of the four edges of the screen (top, left, right or bottom). The behavior of the areas in the container is determined by the sequence in which they are initialized. Docking Containers are attached to the screen from the inside out. This means that when you create a second container, it is attached to the edge of the screen, and the container that was already there is pushed outwards.
Let us modify the standard program (by taking a copy of it) to enable it to execute it in background.
Following modifications have to be made:
· Define a docking container in the program
data: or_doc type ref to cl_gui_docking_container .
· At the time of creating a custom container, check if the program is being executed in background or foreground. If the program is scheduled in background, then create a docking container instead of custom container.
if cl_gui_alv_grid=>offline( ) is initial.
create object or_custom_container
exporting container_name = c_container.
create object or_grid
exporting i_parent = or_custom_container.
else .
create object or_grid
exporting i_parent = or_doc .
endif .
Now test executing the program in background. The report would be generated. -

Schedule job in background and ftp the data to non-sap system
Hello All,
I have a requirement where in i have to write a program(with selection screen) to download 2 files into application server(frequency: end of each day i.e daily at 23:59), and then in turn i need to put those two files into FTP server using FTP script.
i guess my flow of the code should be
1. write the program with selection screen and
2. get the data from corresponding tables and put it into internal tables.
3. then i have download the data into application server
my question is : how i will schedule the job in background to download the data into application server daily? using job_open, job_submit, job_close?
4. then how i need to move the files from application server to FTP server using FTP SCRIPT?
Also my doubt is once i execute the program ONLY, the background job is triigred (because i wrote job_open, job_submit and job_close inside my program). then how will i input the data into screen daily and download the data into application server in background automatically???? i am confused ...
Please help me to solve the above issues
thanks

So the path name and the file name are always the same? In that case you could simply create a SM49 entry with hard coded file & path name.
An easy example for the COPY command under WINDOWS OS:
Create a command in SM49 called ZCOPY with following data:
Operating System = Windows NT
OS command: cmd
Parameters for os command: /C copy "C:\tmp\my_file.txt" "z:\tmp\my_file_copy.txt"
Additional parameters allowed: (leave blank)
In this case you would call SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE by filling this 2 parameters:
commandname = 'ZCOPY'
operatingsystem = 'Windows NT'
In the case that the file name and the path are not fixed you would set the following in the SM49 definition:
Additional parameters allowed: X
In this case you would call SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE by filling this 3 parameters:
commandname = 'ZCOPY'
operatingsystem = 'Windows NT'
additional_parameters = params "<== fill in the path and file name during run time into this variable -

Why is this??
Where can we get information of the jobs submitted???
If an error occured when running job, from where, which DD View we can get this?If you submit a job without specifying the NEXT_DATE and INTERVAL, Oracle treats it as a "single execution" job. It is removed from the job queue once it is completed.

Is this the correct syntax to submit a job using DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT?
Hello,
Is this the correct syntax to submit a job?
DECLARE
v_job_number NUMBER;
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH;';
v_interval VARCHAR2(1000) := 'trunc(SYSDATE)+1+7/24';
BEGIN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(v_job_number, v_job_command, sysdate, v_interval, false);
COMMIT;
END;
Thanks
DougDECLARE
v_job_number NUMBER;
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'BEGIN
PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH; END;';
v_interval VARCHAR2(1000) :=
'trunc(SYSDATE)+1+7/24';
BEGIN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(v_job_number, v_job_command, sysdate,
v_interval, false);
COMMIT;
END;
About your error:
PLS-00201: identifier 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH'
must be declared
ORA-06550: line 1, column 96:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
The problem is that the job cannot find the procedure
(maybe own by an other user). The user who run the
job is not the same as the owner of the package.
Bye, AronYou forget the semicolon after END.
But we don't need here begin - end Block.
So it's OK.
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH;'[b];
As you right mentioned, it is probably problem with owner or typo in the name of procedure.

[abap] Running job in background
Hi !
When I am running a job in background using the functions :
'JOB_OPEN','JOB_SUBMIT','JOB_CLOSE'.
Eventually the job is in finished status, however
I get the following error popup message :
" classification locked (user username)
you cannot classify the batch
because the batch class is
currently being processed.
Do you want to try to carry out the
classification again ?
Please tell me what's the problem, and how to correct the problem ?.
Thanks
mosheMost likely you try to change data which is locked by another user to the same time in some cases - depending on what you were doing the locks are created by the same job in a previous step. In both cases there is only one scenario that works - check, resp. wait until the locks are released.

How to submit a job into a job group
Using job events/actions we occasionally need for a scheduled job to submit another job into the current schedule.
The issue here is that the submitted jobs go straight into the highest level view. We will need to do this for over 400
times in one night, and do not wish to flood the operators view, so are simply trying to find a way to submit it so that
it shows up within an already existing group. Any ideas?It’s just a thought…… but you could..
Job Group A
Jobaa- run
Jobab – echo a blank file to a shared directory, example: /C "echo ''> \\USNPKETLP03\Infa_Shared\File_Inbound\zcmtyr_eu.csv
Job Group B
Jobba – run dependent on zcmtyr_eu.csv being present. Use the check box, “rerun each time the dependencies are met”
Jobbb – delete the echo file. -
Submit Multiple Job Definitions/Job Chains with same Time window/Submit frame in mass
Hi,
We have a requirement to submit multiple Job Definition/Job Chains which are part of common Time Window/Submit frame/Queue....
Ex. We have over 50+ different jobs/job chains which will runs Monday to Friday for every 2 hours on same Queue "XXX_Queue". Instead of submitting each job/job chain manually, we would like to know if we could use any script that can achieve our requirement? since we have couple of other jobs which fall under same scenarios...
We are on M33.104 version. Please let me know if any one has any scripts or alternate way of submitting multiple jobs/job chains in mass.
Thanks in advance!
Nidhi.Hi Nidhish,
Here is some code to set some stuff on a job:
//Get the partition, for global this is not necessary as global is default
Partition part = jcsSession.getPartitionByName("GLOBAL");
//Get the job definition
JobDefinition jobdef=jcsSession.getJobDefinitionByName(part, "System_Info");
//Get the submit frame
SubmitFrame sf = jcsSession.getSubmitFrameByName(part, "SF_Every_Year");
//Get the time window
TimeWindow tw = jcsSession.getTimeWindowByName(part, "System_Week_WorkingHours");
//Set the start time
DateTimeZone dtz = new DateTimeZone(2015, 10, 18, 15, 0, 0, 0);
//Get the Queue
Queue SystemQ=jcsSession.getQueueByName(part, "System");
//Create the Job
Job infoJob=jobdef.prepare();
//Attach queue to job
infoJob.setQueue(SystemQ);
//Attach submit frame, time window, start time
infoJob.setSubmitFrame(sf);
infoJob.setTimeWindow(tw);
infoJob.setRequestedStartTime(dtz);
//Print out the jobid of the job
jcsOut.println(infoJob.getJobId());

Downloading the file in our PC , when running the job in Background
Hi,
We have an enquiry for below requirment.
Our client runs some jobs in front end , but as the time taken to execute the JOB is more than 15 minutes , he is getting timeout problem, so we want to run the same program in background.
Generally the output of the report is to download the file into his desktop, so even when he is running
the same job in background he want it to be downloaded into his PC, instead of application servor.
We created a test program similar to the requirment, and ran the job in foreground and the file could easily be downloaded to desktop. Then we ran the program in backgound - The job failed with an error message Codepage could not be determined - Message no. FES025.
My Question is - is it possible to download the file into the desktop while running in background.
Please help me .
Thanks in advance.
