Hii All

I need helpon how the user authentication works for SUBMIT statement

as given below.

SUBMIT REPORTNAME AND RETURN

USER SY-UNAME VIA JOB JOBNAME NUMBER JOBNUMBER

Is this to use the authentication for running the back ground processing

using the User ID given

or

The authentication is for all the JOB steps in that job to be done by using the User ID Authentication stated in the statement ?

I think i am clear with my question??

if not i can clarify on it again...

Thanks

Hi Ajitabh

The authentication acts for the particular step where we are defining...

To understand more you can check parameter: <b>AUTHCKNAM</b> of FM: <b>JOB_SUBMIT</b>

Hii Eswar

Thanks for your reply ...

But i am using the SUBMIT Statement ....Instead of JOB_SUBMIT...

I am using SUBMIT because i want to fill up some input parameters with this JOB Step which is a program with selection screen.

can i use JOB_SUBMIT for doing the same..

Can u help me out on this ..

Hi Ajitabh

If the values are going to be fixed always, we can create and variant and use the same in FM: JOB_SUBMIT.

If the values differ, we can use the SUBMIT statement and pass values. Addition ... USER user VIA JOB job NUMBER n helps to create the step with a specific user-id. I guess, this acts for the particular step in the job and not for all steps.
