spool output getting truncated

Former Member

Hello all,

I'm using ALV FM to display data in output. when I submit the report in background, the output in spool is getting truncated. only 4-5 columns are displaying correctly.

Is it a basis issue? kindly suggest.

Thanks,

Bharat.

Its completely a basis activity.

Discuss with your BASIS consultant or search for the same in BASIS forum.

Thanks,

Hi,

I have not modified print parameters..I'm just running the program, with the option 'Execute in background'.

Thanks,

Bharat.

Hi Bharat,

While defining the job in SM36.. in STEP 1 where we pass the ABAP Program Name, click on PRINT SPECIFICATIONS -> Properties -> Double click on Format Value X_65_80. Change this to the necessary width which is required & avaialble.

If the width is not available then create the same using SPAD transaction.

Best regards,

Hey Bharat,

Just add LINE-SIZE (n) as shown below to your report. If you did not do that the output will be automatically truncated.

REPORT zm****** LINE-SIZE 125.


The line size can be up to 255.

Thanks,
