plz guide me reg this.
Thanks.

Hi Sangeetha,
Yes your assumption about your requirement is correct as per the requirement for the data but as per the daily job
you need to follow some steps:-
1. Don't use the JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT and JOB_CLOSE inside the program instead of that you can define a daily basis job in transaction SM36 with the job step as your report name, and you can define the frequency of that job for every day 23:59 time.
2. Now again you have a doubt to put the data on the selection screen for this requirement you can use the report variant it could be more. That should be decided by you.
3. Your last doubt is to transfer the file from application server to FTP server that can be done by the script. script is depend upon the OS of the application like if its a UNIX system you can write a set of unix commant to transfer it or windows batch to do the same.

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

GUI functions (like GUI_UPLOAD) will not work in background, they need an actual Gui active.
There are plenty of threads on this subject, search also in the wiki for threads/guide like [Working with files |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/Workingwithfiles] or [Communication to Presentation Server in Background Mode|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/9831750a-0801-0010-1d9e-f8c64efb2bd2&overridelayout=true] or [Working with FTP Server |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/WorkingwithFTP+Server]

Running a Dynpro-based Report as a Job/in Background mode

Hello,
i've got a report which hasn't got a selection-screen as its startscreen, but a complex dynpro and is based on different start-buttons and not only the "basic" F8/Run-Button. the users still would like to be able to run the report in background mode and as an automated weekly job. moreover they want to use their own configuration/variant for date-fields etc., just like they are used from a selection-screen. is this possible "out of the box" with a dynpro-based report or how can i archive this through my own programming logic?
thanks for your help,
dsp

Hi,
I guess yes, but since you seem to have several processes possible at startup (those buttons), you will have to code a new bit of code at the start of your application. This to choose the correct process... you should have a new statement like
IF sy-batch IS NOT INITIAL.
"Perform batch process
ELSE.
"Perform normal run
ENDIF.
For the variant, I'm not sure to really get the idea... Do the users already use variants with the actual version? or is there no selection screen at all? If not, you should use one and set-up parameters to pre-fill your dynpro fields...

BAPI in Background mode

Hi,
How to schedule BAPI in Background mode.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Madhavi

Hi,
When you create a batch input session, it remains in the batch input queue until it is explicitly started. Session processing can be started in two ways:
An on-line user can start the session using the batch input menu options. (To access the batch input options, choose System>Services>Batch Input.)
You can submit the background job RSBDCSUB to start a session in background processing. If several sessions have the same name, RSBDCSUB starts them all.
It's possible to coordinate the generation and execution of a session in the background processing system.
You can, for example, schedule both the batch input program and RSBDCSUB in the background. If you designate the batch input job as the predecessor for RSBDCSUB, then RSBDCSUB will be started automatically when the batch input job successfully completes.
Alternatively, you can schedule both the batch input program and RSBDCSUB as job steps in a single background job. In this case, however, RSBDCSUB is started even if the batch input program should terminate abnormally.
Hope this will help you.

Alok

Scheduling /VIRSA/RE_DNLDROLES in background Mode

Hi,
I need to shcedule the job to download all the roles in the background mode for /VIRSA/RE_DNLDROLES, as I am not able to complete the execution by running it in foreground. Apparently in the batch mode this tcode does not write the required files to the folder nor does it generate any spool. I checked the note 1252032 it also seems to suggest that we should be running this in the background.
Any ideas why the files wont download in the batch mode.
Thanks!

Hi Barath

Background Processing? how schedule job for "System Error" Message .

Hello everyone,
in sap help i have read.

PCK> Monitoring>Message Monitoring-->Background Processing
you can schedule jobs for various background processing:
●     Archiving of messages processed successfully
●     Deletion of messages that are not to be archived
●     Restarting of messages with errors
●     Rescheduling of lost messages
can anyone understand this docu?
give me some introduction, how can i define and schedule these jobs ?
thx in advance!!
best regards
Yaning

Background Processing
Prerequisites
You have started the message monitor on the initial screen of the PCK and are in Background Processing.
Features
Archiving
You require two archiving sessions to archive messages:
●     One session to write the messages to the archive
●     One session to delete the persisted messages that have been archived
To do this, you schedule an archiving job, which implicitly schedules the sessions to write to the archive and delete the archived messages.
You can define one or more rules for each archiving job; these rules contain conditions that a message must meet in order to be archived by the job. At least one of the defined rules must be met for archiving to take place.
All information that is displayed for a message in message monitoring is archived, in addition to the audit log for each message.
Deleting
A standard delete job is created automatically. It runs once a day. You can schedule additional delete jobs; however, you cannot define rules for them.
Restarting
Instead of restarting messages with errors manually with message monitoring, you can schedule a job to automatically restart these messages. This is possible for all messages for which the number of defined restart attempts has been exceeded (messages with the system error status).
You can define one or more rules for each job to restart messages; these rules contain conditions that a message must meet in order to be restarted by the job. At least one of the defined rules must be met for archiving to take place.
Rescheduling
A standard job to reschedule messages is created automatically. The job runs once a day and ensures that messages lost as a result of database failure, for example, are rescheduled. You can schedule additional rescheduling jobs; however, you cannot define rules for them.
Thx Aamir.
But I mean the messages with errors in Adapter Engine , not in Intergrations Engine.
the situation is like Naveen Pandrangi's WebLog
II. Errors in Adapter Engine [XI : How to Re-Process failed XI Messages Automatically|XI : How to Re-Process failed XI Messages Automatically]
I
Till now we have seen how to resubmit/restart message that failed in Integration Engine. One a message makes it from Integration Engine to Adapter Engine, the message is flagged as checked in Integration Engine. The status of the message in Adapter engine does not effect the processed state in Integration Engine. Now if this message was asynchronous, XI will by default try to restart the message 3 times at intervals of 5 minutes before the status of the message is changed from Waiting to System Error .
*how can i schedule a job to automatically restart these messages with errors?

Debugging of background scheduled job

Hi guys,
Can any one explain me 1 scenario why there is a need to debug background scheduled job..., rather then doing in background we can run the same job/report online and do normal debugging.
thx in advance,
Cheers,
Harish

Hi ARPAN,
as long as the job is running, you can enter debuuger from SM50 process overview (program->debug) or SM37 Job Overview (Job->catch active Job).
And to the initial question: Some messages are configured to be created when saving document (e.g. sales invoice). This will trigger a background process. If something goes wrong with smartform or sapscript form, it will cause an update error. This you may need to debug in background.

Clemens

Periodic Scheduling of sequencial background job

I schedule monthly & weekly planning jobs. These jobs are scheduled one after another in a sequence. frequency of running these jobs is fix hence I want to schedule it on periodic basis. It possible for me to schedule single background job periodically but I don't know how to schedule sequncial backgorund jobs on periodic basis.
Regards,
Chetan

Dear Siva,
Thanks for your reply.
for execution of single job periodically I am following the same procedure mentioned by you.
I scheduled background jobs one after another by clicking on start condition & in pop-up select "After job". this way I schedule 7 to 8 jobs one after another.
So in first scheduled job you will find 7 to 8 successor jobs.
Now if I try to make it periodic, then only first job becomes periodic & successor jobs doesn't get released periodically.
I want to make entire chain of jobs to be scheduled peiodic.

Is it possible upload local file to internal table in background mode?

Hi, all,
Is it possbile to upload local file(not server file) to internal table in background mode.
If possbile ,please tell me detail . Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lily

Hello,
This is possible.
If you report has to be executed in background using schedule Job. Then the file path should be constant and it can be hard coded in the report itself while populationg the internal table.
Then create a variant for your report and use that variant in the job.
This will solve your problem I guess.

Run smartforms in background mode

Hi
Can anybody tell me, can we execute smartforms in background mode. Please tell me. Can we take printout from the spool.
Smartform have driver program.
Thanks
Murali Papana.

hi,
Use
You can not only evaluate queries online, but also print them in the background. In the Reporting Agent of the Administrator Workbench, you can define the display of the query data as the setting for background printing. You can make as many various settings as you want for printing a query in the background. The settings are then brought together in scheduling packets and scheduled for background printing.
Prerequisites
You have defined a query in the Business Explorer Analyzer that you now want to print in the background. You have called up the Administrator Workbench to do this.
You can only print out queries with key figures in structures. If you have defined a query with a key figure in the filter and want to print this query, you must change the definition of the query so that the key figure is in a structure to be printed.
You can only schedule queries with entered variables for background printing if the required variable entry/entries have been saved as query variants.
Procedure
Defining Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Choose the Reporting Agent from the Administrator Workbench.
Navigate in the left-hand tree to the query you want, and, using the right mouse button, choose New Setting. You get to the "New Reporting Agent Setting" dialog box.
Enter a technical name and a description.
Choose Print in the background from the General tabstrip.
Choose the tabstrip Print Settings from the newly added tabstrips.
Determine the print settings that you want to make. See also: Print Settings
Choose the Print Layout tabstrip.
Decide how you want to set the following print areas:
Cover sheet
Page header
Table header
Table
Page footer
Last page
See also:
Defining the Print Layout
Choose Activate.
Creating Scheduling Packets and Assigning Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Once you have made the Reporting Agent setting for printing in the background, you have to assign your setting to a scheduling packet for the background run.
Creating a scheduling packet
Go back to the Reporting Agent Scheduler, and, in the right-hand Scheduling packets tree, choose the Change pushbutton.
Select the Print in the background node, and choose Create new packet from the context menu (right mouse button). You get to the Create Scheduling Packet dialog box.
Specify a name and a description, and choose Save.
Assigning Reporting Agent Settings for Printing in the Background
Navigate in the left-hand tree, Reporting Agent Settings, to the Reporting Agent setting you want to use for printing in the background.
Using drag-and-drop, drag the Reporting Agent setting that you want to use into the right-hand tree, and assign it to the corresponding scheduling packet.
If the Reporting Agent setting refers to a query with variables, then you need to assign a variant:
Select the Reporting Agent setting.
Using the right mouse button, choose Assign variants from the context menu. A dialog box containing the variants for this query appears.
Choose the variant you want to use.
Choose Continue.
You have the option of maintaining variants in the Reporting Agent (in both the left and right-hand trees).
Select the Reporting Agent setting you want to use.
Choose Maintain variants from the context menu (right mouse button).
Note that you always assign Reporting Agent settings for printing in the background to a corresponding scheduling packet for printing in the background.
To avoid confusion with Reporting Agent settings for exception reporting, you are able to filter according to these two functions in the left-hand menu. The symbols for Exception and Print, in the left-hand tree, also identify the settings.
Scheduling a Packet as a Job
In the right-hand tree, select the scheduling packet you want to use.
Using the right mouse-button, choose Schedule from the context menu. You get to the Change Job RA (name of the scheduling packet) dialog box.
The name of the job is made up of RA for Reporting Agent, and the name of the scheduling packet.
Specify the start date and the repetition period for the job.
See also:
Scheduling Background Jobs in the documentation for the BC Computing Center Management System.
If you want to check the status of the scheduled background job, choose the Jobs pushbutton above the right-hand tree in the Reporting Agent Scheduler.
Hope this helps, Do reward.

How to prvent job in Background during a particular daytime?

Dear all,
I have a urgent requirment to prevent all job in background for mring 7:oo am to evening 7:00 pm.
Is this possible?
if yes then plz suggest me possible way to accomplish my requirment.
Regards
Ricky

I think you can accomplish this in 2 different ways.
1. When you define the job start condition using SM36, you can choose Date/Time option and provide Scheduled start and No start after OR
2. If you choose Operation mode and provide an operation mode (night operation, day operation etc). speak with you basis folks to configure this option.
