create an event for background processing

Former Member — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 08:13:27 GMT

How to trigger a job in background ,while new contracts are created. I have created a program to sent contract details by email. I want to trigger the program after any new contract is created in the system.Is it possible to create an event in sm62 for this purpose?

The transaction SM62 is used to create a user event, i.e the evet user creates and trigers himself. If this is the case, u can try this. Or else try to schdule it in SM 36.

Hi Misha,

there are two ways to create an event driven job.

1. In the program where you are generating success message, after that call function module BP_RAISE_EVENT.

you can get more detail on this function module by going to the below link :

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/EN/fa/096e5e543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/content.htm

eg: you can Create a Event in the SM62

but you need to raise this event in a program using the function BP_RAISE_EVENT

The following example may help:

eventid = 'ZSUCCESS.(name of the event)

eventparm = 'SUCCESS'.(identification of the event)

FORM RAISE_EVNT.

CALL FUNCTION 'BP_EVENT_RAISE'

EXPORTING

EVENTID = EVENTID

EVENTPARM = EVENTPARM

TARGET_INSTANCE = ' '

EXCEPTIONS

BAD_EVENTID = 1.

ENDFORM. " RAISE_EVNT

Once an event is created, you can schedule

background jobs to wait for the event to be triggered.

1. Now you can directly go to sm36 ans there after creation of jobs you can specify the condition over there.

May be the above solution will be helpful to you.

Hi,

When you create the user contact ther should be table which will be updated. Check if the table is updated with a new contact then call the FM to raise the event.

hi Mishi,

you must be passing some success message after creation of a contract and if not then do some debugging and find out the place where your program is creating the contract. there you can use the piece of code written in my last post.
