Pass a Workarea (Value) from one Program to another

Former Member — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 19:17:36 GMT

Hi Experts,

I have a requirement where a Workarea values needs to passed to the Report Program and as well to the Background Program. I am sure EXPORT and IMPORT will work for Foreground but not with the Background.

However for each workarea record a Background will be submitted (I am creating for Parallel Processing). So How can I achieve the above requirement (to get the work area value to the calling program).

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Srinivas

Hi,

Thanks for your reply...

Yes I have tried but it is not getting retrieved. As I will be calling the Background job inside the LOOP statement will there won't be problem with EXPORT and IMPORT I mean regarding the MEMORY ID's everytime I need to change the name (for each record of the LOOP.

Import/export work in the same session, I can suppose when u submit a job program, this will start to run in a new task, so in a new session, so it can explain because Import/export don't work.

So u can try to use import/export statament in order to set the value in the cluster instead of (abap) memory
