Hi

Do you want to execute this in background programmitaclly, if yes just look at the options of the SUBMIT command.

Else, instead of F8, use the F9 command and the report can be run in the background.

In order to restrict the user to run it only in background , you can as well check for SY-BATCH condition.

The other way is try to remove "execute in foreground" option from the menu and this can be done with the function module .

Do reward points if useful and close the thread if the doubt is cleared

data: begin of int_exc occurs 0,

code like sy-ucomm,

end of int_exc.

data wf_repid .

initialization.

clear int_exc.

int_exc-code = 'ONLI'.

append int_exc.

int_exc-code = 'PRIN'.

append int_exc.

move: sy-repid to wf_repid .

call function 'RS_SET_SELSCREEN_STATUS'

exporting

p_status = '%_00'

p_program = 'wf_repid'

tables

p_exclude = int_exc

.

hi,

There are two ways for you to handle,

one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,

secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.

Find below steps in doing both:

Procedure 1:

1. Goto Trans -> SM36

2. Define a job with the program and variant if any

3. Click on start condition in application tool bar

4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time

5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"

6. Next click on Period Values

7. Select "Other Period"

8. Now give '15' for Minutes

9. Save the job

In SM37 u can check the status of the jobs that u have assigned to background...

Here u mention the job name or the report name to check the status of the job...

After mentioning the job name or program name u just execute it.. ( without any name also u can execute then it gives u all the jobs set by your user name..

the status colud be released,active,finished etc..

Procedure 2 via Program:

Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.

DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,

L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'

EXPORTING

JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'

IMPORTING

JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT

EXCEPTIONS

CANT_CREATE_JOB = 1

INVALID_JOB_DATA = 2

JOBNAME_MISSING = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

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

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

ENDIF.

SUBMIT ZTEMP2 VIA JOB 'ZTEMP2' NUMBER P_JOBCNT

TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

WITH DESTINATION = 'HPMISPRT'

WITH IMMEDIATELY = SPACE

WITH KEEP_IN_SPOOL = 'X' AND RETURN.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'

EXPORTING

JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT

JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'

STRTIMMED = 'X'

PRDMINS = 15

IMPORTING

JOB_WAS_RELEASED = L_RELEASE

EXCEPTIONS

CANT_START_IMMEDIATE = 1

INVALID_STARTDATE = 2

JOBNAME_MISSING = 3

JOB_CLOSE_FAILED = 4

JOB_NOSTEPS = 5

JOB_NOTEX = 6

LOCK_FAILED = 7

INVALID_TARGET = 8

OTHERS = 9.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

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

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

ENDIF.

Hope the above helps you.

Thanks,

Hi

To create a Job Step, the FM 'JOB_OPEN' could be used.

To add a JOBSTEP, In your case an ABAP program, "SUBMIT" could be used.

To close the job step, use FM "JOB_CLOSE".

SAMPLE Code:

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'

EXPORTING

• DELANFREP = ' '

• JOBGROUP = ' '

jobname = 'XYZ'

sdlstrtdt = sy-datum "Current date

sdlstrttm = sy-uzeit

IMPORTING

jobcount = g_jobcount

EXCEPTIONS

cant_create_job = 1

invalid_job_data = 2

jobname_missing = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

-

SUBMIT z_PROGRAM AND RETURN

USER sy-uname " User for runtime authorizations

WITH p_para EQ p_para

"..... Selection screen parameters

VIA JOB g_jobname NUMBER g_jobcount

" Job name and job number

" from JOB_OPEN

TO SAP-SPOOL " Print and archiving options from

" GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS

" Both sets of options come from

" GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS

SPOOL PARAMETERS g_s_user_print_params

ARCHIVE PARAMETERS g_s_user_arc_params

WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'

EXPORTING

• AT_OPMODE = ' '

• AT_OPMODE_PERIODIC = ' '

• CALENDAR_ID = ' '

• EVENT_ID = ' '

• EVENT_PARAM = ' '

• EVENT_PERIODIC = ' '

jobcount = g_jobcount

jobname = g_jobname

• LASTSTRTDT = NO_DATE

• LASTSTRTTM = NO_TIME

• PRDDAYS = 0

• PRDHOURS = 0

• PRDMINS = 0

• PRDMONTHS = 0

• PRDWEEKS = 0

• PREDJOB_CHECKSTAT = ' '

• PRED_JOBCOUNT = ' '

• PRED_JOBNAME = ' '

sdlstrtdt = g_datum

sdlstrttm = g_uzeit

• STARTDATE_RESTRICTION = BTC_PROCESS_ALWAYS

• STRTIMMED = ' '

• TARGETSYSTEM = ' '

• START_ON_WORKDAY_NOT_BEFORE = SY-DATUM

• START_ON_WORKDAY_NR = 0

• WORKDAY_COUNT_DIRECTION = 0

• RECIPIENT_OBJ =

• TARGETSERVER = ' '

IMPORTING

job_was_released = g_job_released

EXCEPTIONS

cant_start_immediate = 1

invalid_startdate = 2

jobname_missing = 3

job_close_failed = 4

job_nosteps = 5

job_notex = 6

lock_failed = 7

OTHERS = 8

.

You can get the Print Parameters from FM: 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'.

All the above FMs have detailed documentation which will help you.

Hope this helps you.
