VL10a - Dialog vs. Background

Hi All,
I need input regarding this scenario with tcode VL10a. I have a Sales Order and I create delivery for it through VL10a. My SO has 3 line items. When I process the SO in Dialog mode, a delivery is created for all three line items. When I use the Background mode, a delivery will get created only for the last line item (in this case, item 30). Why is this?
Other notes:
When I run in Background mode, the last line item of SO has a delivery created. When I rerun in Background mode for the same SO, no delivery is created and a message appears telling to look at the logs for information in creating deliveries. So I run in Dialog mode for the other 2 items of the same SO and a delivery is created.
Thanks.

Saving an Adobe Interactive Form without dialog in background

Hi'
I hope someone here can help us.
Our client uses an R/3 system, version 4.6C, where data for the Interactive form is generated.
We use an RFC call to send the data to a NetWeaver system.
The RFC generates our Adobe Interactive form in the NetWeaver system.
We need to save the generated PDF file onto a harddrive in this background processing ( in the RFC ) immidiately after the file has been generated.
Any ideas as to how we save the file?
Regards,
Karin.

Here's one way I could think of doing it. Not sure if it's the most efficient. There may be some function modules out there....
You write a small program to print an Adobe form from the RFC.
Before you call Job open (CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
), set the following parameters of
sfpoutputparams.
Set the outputparamaters to suppress the dialog
utputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
Set to print to a dummy printer
outputparams-dest = 'LP01'.
Set a spool request
outputparams-REQNEW = 'X'.
Then you can call a program like rstxpdft4 to download the PDF file.

Windows 8 Copy/Move Dialog In Background

Every time I copy/move something in Windows 8, that dialog that pops up is always in the background.
Anyone else having this problem, how do I change it so its the foreground?
In addtion to this, sometimes
when I click on the recycle bin and hit empty, it takes a few seconds to 20 seconds to give me the dialog that pops up.
And things like that, randomly.

Hi,
Does this occur if you copy in Safe Mode? Please try and inform the result. I think this is caused by 3rd party software.

Dialog box background issue

Hi!
I'm having this strange beauty problem on MacOsX 10.5.2. On some windows/dialog boxes there is a color difference between the background of the box and the background of the text and buttons.
The computer is brand new, has some additional software installed and I really don't know what should I do. I'm also posting some print screens to explain the issue.

I'm having a similar issue. This happened when I switched to a 2.2 gamma from the default 1.8. Any ideas on how to fix this? I prefer working with a 2.2 gamma, and switching back to 1.8 for such a small cosmetic problem doesn't seem like a good solution...

Difference between Dialog and Background User

Dear Sap Gurus,
What is the difference between a Dialog user and a Background user. I have asked a specific role to be assigned to Auditors, but the consultants have said that they cannot grant that role because it will give access to very sensitive data. They in turn suggested that they will create a background user with that role.
what is the difference between a dialog user and a backgroud user and how it relates to sensitivity of data ?
Thanks in advance,
Diwakar

Dialog user type is your "typical" user type for people who log in to SAP & use it in their day to day work.
Background user is used to schedule batch & background jobs and basically run stuff in the background (hence the name). The most important thing to know is that you cannot login with a Background user which renders the recommendation of your consultant rather irrelevant and given the required use of it, a demonstration that they may not quite know as much as they profess to do.
Each user type can only do what is defined by it's roles (in most cases). If a role assigned to a dialog user gives access to very sensitive data then it will give the same access to a background user and this is not too hard to exploit.
Furthermore, it is usually expected for auditors to have access to sensitive data (depending on what they are auditing) however they should only be displaying this data. They need no change access, and should not be requesting it, a wide access display role covering functional & technical display roles & access to display table data should suffice for 99% of audits. If someone suggests that this access can only be assigned to a background role then I am surprised unless there are some very specific circumstances.

Pale green dialog box backgrounds?

Okay, this isn't exactly a critical question, but...
After upgrading to Leopard, all of my dialog boxes have a VERY pale green background (220/232/218 RGB) -- but the background to text within those boxes is the "correct" pale gray (232/232/232 RGB).
This was true before my recent upgrade to 10.5.2...
Obviously something is corrupt somewhere (unless everyone is experiencing this and just doesn't see it or mention it) -- any thoughts on where I might begin fixing such a thing? It's true across all apps.

Thanks for that! Okay, that's at least FOUR of us -- and I'm thinking it's just us who are observant enough (or whose monitors are bright enough) to be able to tell the difference.
I have to say, it's especially obnoxious in places like the iTunes preferences box, which is large with lots of separate blocks of text...
Also interesting that it isn't true for third-party software preference panes, or the system preferences background (although that's large alternating bands of dark and light, so obviously not a "stock" background).

Sould Queu Mode in tr-cd:SMQR be "Dialog" or "Background" for XB* queues?

Dear Sirs,
in my PI7.1 box, there are XB* queues with "D" mode in tr-cd:SMQR.
is it possible to change their mode to "B"?
since my pi box have some SYSFAIL(TIMEOUT) with dialog mode.
But I don't want to extend rdisp/max_wprun_time (current 1800sec) according to note 1161469.
(Changing max run time requires considerations of system workload and usability)
if more information required, please tell me.
Thanks and Regards,
Shingo

Hi, Swarup
thnx for quick reply.
i could change as you described.
from PI7.1 point of view, should it be D or B?
since by default it is D, i'm afraid B causes any problems.
i understand trying B is better way. but it takes long time to get approval of chaning configuration.
so i'd like to get more information related to this configuration.
many thanks
Shingo

Dialog process vs Background process

Hi,
What is the difference between dialog and background process?
Can a dialog process is used in a process chain?
Does an ABAP program followed by change run be a dialog process or background process in a process chain?
What is the standard maximum runtime duration of a dialog process?

Authentication dialog appears in background

OSX Maverick latest release, 10.9.4, safari version 7.0.5 (9537.77.4), fresh installation.
When a web page contains some audio/video media Safari displays a proxy authentication dialog in background, the dialog is modal so it blocks the entire page, but it's unreacheable using the mouse or keyboard. It's impossibile to type the credentials in, or to click the ok or cancel buttons...
That's clearly a UI bug, does anyone know a workaround ? it's really a blocking issue, it forces me to use another browser.
Thanks to all
Leonardo

Hi Leonardo
Yes I agree, the issue is not just with auto-start movies but also movies we start manually. Of course it is very confusing for autostart movies as the whole page just mysteriously becomes unresponsive during load! :-)
I haven't had any experience where it happens with our proxy details in the server, for me it is always some proxy server related to the originating video. It is never our proxy server.
For example, if I try to open a Vimeo movie, I get this dialog behind Safari:
And I cannot type *anything* into it, or close it, which is characteristic of this bug.
The server above is something to do with Akamai, so I imagine it is a means of load distribution when serving vimeo video.
Of course, when I take the same computer to home, and use it in an environment with no proxy between myself and the internet, I never see this dialog. So the mystery is where it comes from, and why.
It is possible that our firewall config is somehow dodgy, but I don't manage it, and our IT people are not interested at all.
Because our firewall allows free access for (no need to authenticate) for YouTube, as a result I never see this issue when viewing their videos. Your issue could be minimised, for specific video servers, by allowing unrestricted access to them through your firewall.
Cheers

Background Mode

Hi all,
I would like to know how can I find which program is being used when I click on button Background in transaction VL10A.
I tried to debug but i was not able to find.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards

Hi,
I debugged and found out the issue.
The problem is in nomenclature. When it say's background it doesn't mean as a job. It means using ABAP FM's without user interaction.
You can appreciate this by understanding that there are two options: DIALOG and BACKGROUND.
When you choose DIALOG you go to transaction and enter/modify and save changes whereas in BACKGROUND it happens automatically using FM's.
That is the reason there is no job since no job is created in the first place !
Hope this helps in understanding.

How to pop up a Modal dialog on the top.

Hi ALL,
I want to pop up a dialog from background thread, and make it on the top level, any suggestion please.
First: JFrame.show(), and then start a background thread to monitor some event.
when the event happen, it will start to pop up a warning message, the user has to response to it.
otherwise user can not do anything, however the background is still running.
I want to use JOptionPanel, but it seem does not work good.
   _timer = new Timer(30*1000, new ClockListener());
class ClockListener implements ActionListener {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                if(event)
                  popUpDialog();
.........Thanks in advanced!

Use a SwingWorker. Do the backgrround monitoring in a while(true) loop (with a Thread.sleep) in doInBackground. Invoke process when your event is detected and show the dialog from publish.

ABAP trail 7.00 timeouts and background process

Does anyone knows if it's possible to change the number of dialog and background processes?
And the transaction to change the timeouts of such processes?
Thank you

you can change the timeout in rz11.Parameter-name is rdisp/max_wprun_time. Backgound processes habe no timeout, so this value is only valid for dia-processes
To change the number, you have to adjust your instance profile. In the forum 'Netweaver Administrator' should be some information about that. So just the short hint: you can adjust the profiles in RZ10, but have to do some steps for that. Just search in NW-Admin-forum above.

Smartform in background task

Hi,
I have the following code which is a copy of standard program /bev1/vd_bew_lief_background:
IF nast-vsztp = 4.
CALL FUNCTION 'ZUAM_FMDELNOTE' IN BACKGROUND TASK AS SEPARATE UNIT
ELSEIF sy-tcode = VL71 OR
sy-tcode = VL02N OR
sy-tcode = VL03N.
CALL FUNCTION 'ZUAM_FMDELNOTE'
ELSE.
CALL FUNCTION 'ZUAM_FMDELNOTE' IN BACKGROUND TASK AS SEPARATE UNIT
And inside this FM I have a call to print a smartform. When it goes in the second if block there is no problem, the smartform gets triggered. But when it goes to the 1st or 2nd, the one with in background task, the smartform is not triggered.
Is smartform allowed to be called in background processing?
Or there other things that I should check?
Thanks.

Does your smartform has a Dialog pop up?
If yes, you have to suppress it, as dialog and background don't go together.
You have set cetrain parameters in the Smartfrms function module in order not to get the pop up dialog.

Changing background in a JOptionPane

This is probably very simple, but I'm having some trouble. I simply want to change the background of the message in my JOptionPane dialog box (and also change the font of the message, but I think I figured that one out). Here's the code....
JLabel label1 = new JLabel("the first part of message");
JLabel label2 = new JLabel("the second part of the message");
label1.setFont(Utils.courierBold12);
label2.setFont(Utils.courierBold12);
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.setBackground(Color.white);
panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
panel.add(label1, BorderLayout.NORTH);
panel.add(label2, BorderLayout.CENTER);
JOptionPane pane = new JOptionPane(panel,JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
pane.setBackground(Color.white);
// pane.setOpaque(true);
JDialog dialog = pane.createDialog(this, "Error Message");
dialog.setBackground(Color.white);
dialog.show();
first I tried to set the pane.setOpaque(false) but that left only the panel background white (the rest is that boring gray color). When I set the pane.setOpaque(true) the panel background is white as well as the top and bottom of the dialog box, but not the Icon or the container the has the ok button in it. How can I set the entire dialog box background to white??? Thanks for any and all help....

Please provide more information about what you are trying to do.

REG : in which memory area BackGround process will execute??

hi everyone,
in which memory area , background process will be executed ?
Thanks and Regards,
Nikhil K

Hi,
i want to know if both SAP memory and ABAP memory are not present then in which area Background processes will be executed.
erm, they are always present. Processes do not execute "in" these 2 memories. I advise you to read some reference documentation: [SAP library: Functions of the SAP Memory Management System|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/02/96279d538111d1891b0000e8322f96/frameset.htm]
The only difference I know between dialog and background is the sequence in which the roll, extended and heap memories are allocated.
