Hi,
  This will probably work.
report zkiran_0001 .
data: xtbtco type   tbtco .
parameters: p_job type tbtco-jobname.
start-of-selection.
  clear xtbtco.
  select single  * from tbtco
          into xtbtco
                     where jobname = p_job
                       and status = 'R'.  " running
  if sy-subrc = 0.
    write:/ 'Job', p_job, ' is currently running'.
  endif.
Statuses....
Status of background job
The following statuses are possible:
<b>Scheduled:</b> Job defined, but not yet eligible to run even if the start condition has been fulfilled.
<b>Released:</b> Job eligible to be started as soon as the start condition with which it was scheduled is fulfilled.
<b>Ready:</b> Job waiting to start. The job has been released and the job's start condition has been fulfilled.
<b>Active:</b> Job is currently running and can no longer be deleted or reset to scheduled.
<b>Finished:</b> Job has been successfully completed. All job steps completed successfully.
Note: the background processing system cannot always determine whether an external job step was successfully completed. In this case, the system assumes successful completion.
<b>Terminated:</b> Job was ended abnormally either through user action or through an error in running a job step.
Internal codes for these are as follows.
  btc_running       LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'R',
  btc_ready         LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'Y',
  btc_scheduled     LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'P',
  btc_released      LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'S',
  btc_aborted       LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'A',
  btc_finished      LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'F',
  btc_put_active    LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'Z',
  btc_unknown_state LIKE tbtco-status VALUE 'X'.
