Transaction in background mode

Hi experts,
is it possible to execute transaction VT01N in background mode ?
This doesn't seem to work with ERP2005 ...
CALL TRANSACTION 'VT01N' USING bdcdata MODE 'N' UPDATE 'S'
Thanks for support.

Not able to execute custom transaction in Background mode

Dear All,
There is a custom modele pool program to update the data in info type 9003. We have written a Z program in that we are calling this custom modele pool through CALL TRANSACTION with mode 'N' and update 'S'.
Z Program is running successfully and updating data in 9003 info type when we run in foreground mode.
But it is not updating when runs in Background mode.
Am I need to take any other precautions when run in background mode for custom transaction?
We are using 4.6C version.
Thanks in advance.

Abaper

For custom transactions you shouldn't have a problem - unless you're trying to do something that needs dialog with the presentation server.
Set an infinite loop in the custom transaction, launch your program in backround, then from Sm50, go to debug and find out what's going on.
DATA: debug.
WHILE debug IS INITIAL. " Debug from SM50 will get you here, change field DEBUG in the
ENDWHILE. " debugger to contain 'X', and the loop will end.
Also, if your custom tx calls any standard SAP programs/FM, there is a chance that those programs work differently in background than foreground.

Call Transaction in background mode

Hi everyone,
What I am currently trying to do is to perform a 'call transaction' while forcing the 'background processing' mode even when the user is running the program in online mode; this allows me to retrieve a lot more messages that are useful to the user than the messages generated in online mode.
As long as I have seen there is no field for that in the options table that can be passed to the 'call transaction' sentence. The only way to see that behavior while in online mode is by 'playing back' a recording thru the SHDB transaction and checking the 'Simulate background' option.
My first attempt was to set the SY-BATCH flag before doing the call transaction but it doesn't work, the flag seems to reset itself with the correct value during the call.
Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sergio

You would have to create a job on the fly to do this. This example shows how to kick off a background job via an ABAP program.
report zrich_0004 .

        stime type sy-uzeit,
        l_valid,
        ls_params like pri_params,
        l_jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,
        l_jobname like tbtcjob-jobname.
start-of-selection.
* Get Print Parameters
call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
       exporting
            no_dialog      = 'X'
       importing
            valid          = l_valid
            out_parameters = ls_params.

l_jobname = 'ZRICH_0005'.
call function 'JOB_OPEN'
       exporting
            jobname = l_jobname
       importing
            jobcount = l_jobcount.
* Submit report to job

       via job     l_jobname
           number l_jobcount
       to sap-spool without spool dynpro
           spool parameters ls_params
              and return.
* Schedule and close job.
call function 'JOB_CLOSE'
       exporting
            jobcount = l_jobcount
            jobname   = l_jobname
            strtimmed = 'X'

BDC VA01 in background mode error

Hi ,
I am psoting data into VA01 using BDC call transaction in background mode for two cases.
For one it is running successfully and for the other it is not.
I have compared the data in the table BDCDATA for both the cases and it is same.
Then I tried debugging in foreground mode and the same case which was not running earlier is running in foreground mode.
Please advice what could be the problem?

Hello ABHI,
The problem is because of some breakpoints created by you. So it is entering it to debugger in the background mode which cannot be handled by the BDC. Delete all your breakpoints before testing or open a new logon session to test it in background.
Hope this solves your problem.

Call transaction KB21N processed by a program in background mode

Hi to all,
I call transaction KB21N using BDCDATA in a custom program. If I process this program in foreground mode all it's OK, but if I process the program in background mode, I have a runtime error with DUMP: RAISE EXCEPTION with exception condition CNTL_ERROR. This program has to be executed in background so a bapi exist to use instead of call transaction or something else?
Thank you very much,
regards
Antonio

HI Antonio,
The transaction you are dealing with is an SAP Enjoy transaction and for such transactions it is not recommended to do a BDC. YOu should search for a BAPI for the same as you have already identified. Basically the enjoy transactions uses GUI controls which cannot be handled by BDC.
BAPI_ACC_ACTIVITY_ALLOC_POST may serve your purpose.

ravi

BDC is not working in background mode and working fine in Foreground mode

Hi Experts,
I have created a BDC in SHDB for the transaction code:CWBQM for creating and deleting the record and converted the BDC recording into the program using call transaction. It is working fine in both foreground and background. When I given the same program for users testing one for the user was able to delete the records but Creation is not working in the same BDC. He is able to create the same records in another PC and the problem is only in that PC and only during the creation of the record. When I change the mode to 'A' mode for testing and request the user to execute and it is working fine the records created successfully. What could be the issue ?
Thanks,
Hema

Hello,
While recording BDC in SHDB try setting "Simulate background mode" flag and give a try.

Create Quality Management view for a Material in background mode

I want to know if there is a way to create a Quality Management View (Quality Management tab) on Material Master (material already extended to plant ) in background mode.
The requirement is to add inspection setup data for a material extended to a particular plant in background. I tried using 'BAPI_MATINSPCTRL_SAVEREPLICA' to add the data and it works perfect as required. Now the problem is this BAPI is creating the inspection setup data only for the material which has QM tab in MM02 for e.g. I manually created the inspection setup for a Material from MM01 and then deleted it , now the BAPI works fine for this material because when I created an inspection setup from MM01 it created the QM tab and after i deleted the entry the tab was still there with no entry in inspection setup.
I want to create inspection setup for a material which does not have QM tab.
I have to create everything is background mode. BDC is one option which I am list interested in.
Thank you for helping in advance.

Thank you for looking into my issue. I have to do the inspection setup in background without using any front end transaction.

Error in batch session processing in background mode

Hi ,
I am trying to do data transfer using batch session for transaction FD32.
Here the batch session is executing when I am processing the session in foreground.
Whereas in background mode it is failing.
Please check and assit.
Regards
Kishore

Hi Kishore,
Probably it will be some information or warning message which is coming in the background execution of the session.
That is the reason your session is going into error. Run the errored out session once again in foreground mode. You will get to know the reason of failure.
Please let us know of any doubts.
Cheers

SM35 Re-processing of Incorrect/Error session in Background Mode

Hi all,
I am trying to reprocess a session in SM35 which is in Error status. Here I am a facing an issue, if I reprocess this session in background mode then it says that Batch input data is not available for a screen which is already processed. Ideally it should start from the screen where it threw error in the first run. If I select mode as Foreground or Display error then session is getting processed correctly.
Note:
If the session is in Ready to Process state then processing in background works perfectly fine. Has anyone came across this problem ?
Has anyone tried reprocessing Incorrect Session in background mode ??????
Regrads,
Antony

Thanks Sandra,
Indeed I understood the problem. And the problem is that transaction KEBC is always executed correctly & since its processed correctly its removed from the BDC Queue
Here transaction KEBC, sets a Memory Parameter, and transaction KEU2, first checks whether the memory parameter is initial, if found intial it pops-up a screen and makes the user enter it. In my case KEBC always run successfully
As you rightly suggested when session is in error, transaction KEBC is not getting called again to set the memory parameter & its throwing the pop-up from the transaction KEU2 to be entered by the user. ( BDCDATA currently dosent handle this Pop-up).
I could have omitted the KEBC transaction, but handling this pop-up from transaction KEU2 becomes tricky since it will only pop-up if the memory parameter is initial. And unfortunately Pop-up is the first screen in the sequence for transaction for KEU2 & nothing can be done in coding level to call KEU2 with the pop-up in all scenarios(Even when Memmory varaible is set) !
So I am kind of in a dilema, how to handle this? What I am suggesting to the Functional consultant is that let the session be only run in background mode (as it will be always in a new internal session memory variable will always be inital ) & I will record this pop-up in my BDC omitting transaction KEBC.
Do you have anyother solution for this?
Or is there any option to re process even the successfull transacations ?

IMPORT/EXPORT statement in Background Mode

Hey dudes,
I am facing a problem in my coding. I am dealing with coding in several events in IS-U, transaction FPY1.
However, it's not so important ya. Now I am written some code on IMPORT and EXPORT some parameters between 2 program code. It's work very fine only in 'DEBUG MODE', but when it's running not debug mode (Is BACKGROUND MODE), coz it's massive run program.
I suspect it's because of the background job. Does background job using ABAP Memory? IMPORT/EXPORT is only for dialog work process, not background work process?? I have a lot of question mark on my head now..
Hope anyone facing dis issue before can help.
Cheers,
Isaac.

Are you trying to pass data via EXPORT/IMPORT between two programs that are both running in background, or from an online session to a background process?... i.e. what are the two lots of program code that you are wanting to pass parameters between?
It would be fine for a background program to "export" data to a memory ID, then for the same batch program to submit another program that does the "import" from the same memory ID... but this method won't work for an online user doing an "export" and a batch job doing an "import" -> for this to work, you would need to persist the parameters so that the batch job can retrieve them.
If you can explain the scenario a bit more, will try to offer more help...

Call transaction in N mode

Hi,
I have used BDC Call transaction method in N(background) mode from my report.
But when the report itself, is run in background, then the BDC is not working.
Please help. I must run the report in background as well.
Thanks&Regards
Ananya Mukherjee

I faced the same issue while running a BDC for a custom transaction. It was working fine in foreground, but not in background with error log message "Object Reference Not Assigned". Later, we found out that, it was due to some HTML text editors and inplace excel displays, which interact with foreground processes and can't run in background.
Kindly check the error log of the BDC. Write the errors in application server or in report output using WRITE statement, so that you can check it in spool.
In your custom dialog program check for any inplace document displays, HTML text editors or GUI functionalities. If it's due to GUI functionalities only, run the piece of code responsible for the GUI , only when sy-batch NE X in your main dialog program.

Call transaction in Background job

Hi,
I am executing a program in background. In that program I am having a CALL TRANSACTION as below:
CALL TRANSACTION 'ME22'
    USING g_t_bdctab
    MODE 'N'
    UPDATE 'S'
    MESSAGES into g_t_bdcmsg.
But it is not working. The same is working when the program is executed in foreground.
Is this means, we cannot have CALL TRANSACTION in background?
If Yes, then what could be the solution for it?
Thanks,
Pankaj.

Hello Pankaj,
Call transaction works in background.
Provided you are not picking file from presentation server.
If you are picking file from presentation server, place the same file in application server and during background job pick the file from application server then your program works perfectly.

Call Transaction in Background for IW52

Hi All..
When i execute my BDC (Call Transaction) in foreground, the code will update IW52 screens without any errors/warnings.
But if we schedule this in background, the IW52 screens are not getting updated.
Even there are no Errors observed.
We have used the syntax as follows..
CALL Transaction IW52 using it_bdcdata MODE 'N' messages into it_bdcmsg.
Can anyone help me how to rectify it and make it to execute successfully in background mode..??
Your Help will be highly appreciated..

How to DEBUG a function module running in background mode? Please help!

Hi Experts,
   I am calling a function module in my ABAP code in background module using the following syntax:
CALL FUNCTION 'YBBC2_CREATE_SNAPSHOT' IN BACKGROUND TASK
          TABLES
            itab_std_format_inv = itab_std_format_inv
            itab_snapshot_inv = itab_snapshot_inv.
        COMMIT WORK.
If I put the breakpoint in the CALL FUNCTION line and execute the program, the debugger does not take me to the valled function module. This may be because I am running the function module as background task.
I cannot comment this "IN BACKGROUND TASK" statement as well since i am debugging in Quality system where I don't have change access.
So how to DEBUG a function module running in background mode? Please help!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
You could try to use the following trick:
(1) Put an endless loop into the coding of your function module where you want to start debugging, e.g.
DATA:
    lx_exit_loop(1)     TYPE c.
lx_exit_loop = ' '.
DO.
    IF ( lx_exit_loop = 'X' ).
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
(2) Call your function module in background task
(3) Call transaction SM50 and search for the background process.
(3) Choose from menu Program/Mode -> Program -> Debugging
Now you the debugger should bring you right to your endless loop. Set lx_loop_exit = 'X' in the debugger and continue (F5 or F6).
