PRoblem regarding Submit -> Open/Transfer/Close Dataset

[Former Member]

Hello again, I know I keep asking the same topic (regarding datasets) for the past week. Its been a new topic for me. However, I have a program which I am testing that is shown below.

<b>REPORT ZPROG_COOL7 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.

DATA: ITAB_LIST TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ABAPLIST WITH HEADER LINE.

PARAMETERS: PNAME TYPE SYCPROG. (this does nothing yet ...)

SUBMIT ZPROGRAM EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN

USING SELECTION-SET 'CEDEX'.

CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'

TABLES

LISTOBJECT = ITAB_LIST

• EXCEPTIONS

• NOT_FOUND = 1

• OTHERS = 2

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_LIST'

TABLES

LISTOBJECT = ITAB_LIST.

ENDIF.

DATA: LD_FILENAME TYPE LOCALFILE.

DATA: I_MONTH TYPE TABLE OF T247 WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA: IHTML TYPE TABLE OF W3HTML WITH HEADER LINE.

CALL FUNCTION 'WWW_LIST_TO_HTML'

• EXPORTING

• list_index = sy-lsind

TABLES

HTML = IHTML.

CLEAR IHTML.

LD_FILENAME = '
H******\SAPReport\death.html'.

OPEN DATASET LD_FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.

LOOP AT IHTML.

TRANSFER IHTML TO LD_FILENAME.

ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET LD_FILENAME.

CLEAR: LD_FILENAME.</b>

As you can see it is suposed to get a list from a diffrent program, write the list, and then transfer the list into a directory in the SAP application server. This all works fine on foreground but in Background Proccessing the story is diffrent.

Here is the problem:

If Iam to send a job in background, the report will generate fine if you view the spool list <b>but there HTML file that is supposed to be saved becomes blank.</b> Is there a way to solve this issue? Thank you all take care, and good day.

I am concerned that his part does not work in background.

CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
TABLES
LISTOBJECT = ITAB_LIST
* EXCEPTIONS
* NOT_FOUND = 1
* OTHERS = 2
.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
* WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_LIST'
TABLES
LISTOBJECT = ITAB_LIST.
ENDIF.

DATA: LD_FILENAME TYPE LOCALFILE.
DATA: I_MONTH TYPE TABLE OF T247 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA: IHTML TYPE TABLE OF W3HTML WITH HEADER LINE.

<b>CALL FUNCTION 'WWW_LIST_TO_HTML'
* EXPORTING
* list_index = sy-lsind
TABLES
HTML = IHTML.
CLEAR IHTML.</b>

LD_FILENAME = '\H******SAPReportdeath.html'.

OPEN DATASET LD_FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
LOOP AT IHTML.
TRANSFER IHTML TO LD_FILENAME.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET LD_FILENAME.
CLEAR: LD_FILENAME.

I ran across this before and I did find a solution, I'll get back.

Please try this instead.

  call function 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
       tables
            listobject = list
       exceptions
            not_found  = 1
            others     = 2.
 
<b>  call function 'WWW_HTML_FROM_LISTOBJECT'
       tables
            html       = htmllines
            listobject = list.</b>
