error in background job, no layouts found

[former_member634537]

We have an customized report in our system, and can successfully run in foreground, now, I want to run it in background, then I set the job in SM36, but when I check it in SM37, the job cancelled, and got error message"no layouts found" in job log, does any one know what this message mean? I have set an default layout in the report, and seems no field to input layout in SM36, is there any code needed to add in the report to support it running in background?

Thanks

Kindly check the layout settings, try to remove user-specific layout and set it to default. let's see if it will work.

To go to layout setting, you have to run the report first in foreground then on the top your screen in menu bar > settings > layout > Manage. uncheck the check icon if there's any in default settings column and save

Thanks for your reply, but after tried, the job still cancelled...please check below layout setting, I didn't mark it as default or user-specified...

Hi Jentery,

try to check the default setting and save, let see what will happen next.. and please ask also your ABAPers to check the ALV program of your custom report.

Already tried to set it to default, but still same problem, I'm analyzing the program see whether I can add a layout field in the selection screen. thanks for helping

Hi Jentery,

When you created variants, you must selected background processing. Could you check the checkbox?

Best regards
