ALV output background scheduling

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I am working on an update program and need to schedule it in background. Foreground is working fine and now I want to code it for background processing, this needs to pick up the data from a file on application server. I then need to manupulate the data according to a user requirement and put it into a final internal table for background process. Can you guys please help me out from here. This is my first time to code for a background scheduling of an ALV.

Regards,

New Abaper

Hi,

ALV is not for background jobs. Check this forum for details.

Thanks Srikant,

This is not basically an ALV, well I must say it is more of an ABAP program which is being used to update the database using BAPI. But for foreground update I am selecting a data from table to ALV output and let user to modify the data and process for update. But in backgroung user will provide us with application server file and I need to schedule a job for that......any more points from you.

Cheers.

Hi,

Use like below

if SY-BATCH = 'X'.

• Back ground Job.

<<Here your need to write code to update when you plan to assign as background job>>

else

<<continue with your existing one>>

endif.

It will work your case
