How to run ABAP Function Module in Background FOR LONG TIME?

[Former Member]

I am not that experienced with ABAP. I am on SAP BI 7.0. I WANT TO RUN A FUNCTION MODULE

RSDRT_INFOCUBE_DATA_COPY.

I used SE37 and then executed the module, I supplied the parameters on the form which opped-up and then program started running. . Program was however interrupted after 10 minutes by ABAP. How can I run it in background without interruption?

THANKS A LOT.

Change parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time.

Default value for this is 600 seconds (10minutes).Change it to a time which you think you need for copying infocube data.

May be 5 hours.

PS:You can not run Function Module in background directly,but you can create a Z* program and call that FM from within that program and then run the program in background.

Hope this answers your query. Best of Luck!

Thanks and Regards
