Use function module 'PROGRESS_INDICATOR' which resets the time set by the Basis people

for running the ABAP program.

Hi,

Use following ocde :

WAIT FOR N MINS.

.But if it still cant achieve it then go for java code.I have tried many other finction module ,, but non suited my requirement as they are assigned to only some particular purpose.

In this , i can give an hint .

Compare sy-datum at regular intervals .But this can be done only when a user action has been performed or there is a screen navigation.;

If it still not satisfying you , then i am sorry for being unable to help u.

Thank you .
