SUBMIT program VIA JOB and SET/GET parameter

joo_gaia — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 14:07:23 GMT

Hi All

I need to pass the content of a variable from the program 'A' to program 'B'.

Program A uses JOB_OPEN , SUBMIT program VIA JOB jobname NUMBER jobnumber AND return, JOB_CLOSE.

I tried to use import/export memory but it didn't work. Then I am trying to use set/get parameters but it also did not work.

Program A is going to run in any server and program B will run in the central instance (it is determined in the FM JOB_CLOSE, parameter target_server).

Program does not have selection-screen.

Is it possible use set/get parameter with submit via job?

Could you please advise?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

EXPORTING

archive_mode = c_archive

destination = syst-pdest

IMPORTING

out_archive_parameters = l_archi_parameters

out_parameters = l_print_parameters

valid = l_valflag

EXCEPTIONS

archive_info_not_found = 1

invalid_print_params = 2

invalid_archive_params = 3

OTHERS = 4.

SUBMIT (x_txw_c_v0-view_prog) TO SAP-SPOOL

SPOOL PARAMETERS l_print_parameters

ARCHIVE PARAMETERS l_archi_parameters

WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

VIA JOB l_jobname NUMBER l_jobnumber

AND RETURN.

Thanks.

Ramya.

Here a simple code

*Submit report as job(i.e. in background)
data: jobname like tbtcjob-jobname value
                             'TRANSFER DATA'.
data: jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,
      host like msxxlist-host.
data: begin of starttime.
        include structure tbtcstrt.
data: end of starttime.
data: starttimeimmediate like btch0000-char1 value 'X'.

* Job open
  call function 'JOB_OPEN'
       exporting
            delanfrep        = ' '
            jobgroup         = ' '
            jobname          = jobname
            sdlstrtdt        = sy-datum
            sdlstrttm        = sy-uzeit
       importing
            jobcount         = jobcount
       exceptions
            cant_create_job  = 01
            invalid_job_data = 02
            jobname_missing  = 03.
  if sy-subrc ne 0.
                                       "error processing
  endif.

* Insert process into job
 SUBMIT zreport and return
                with p_param1 = 'value'
                with p_param2 = 'value'
                user sy-uname
                via job jobname
                number jobcount.
  if sy-subrc > 0.
                                       "error processing
  endif.

* Close job
  starttime-sdlstrtdt = sy-datum + 1.
  starttime-sdlstrttm = '220000'.
  call function 'JOB_CLOSE'
       exporting
"            event_id             = starttime-eventid
"            event_param          = starttime-eventparm
"            event_periodic       = starttime-periodic
            jobcount             = jobcount
            jobname              = jobname
"            laststrtdt           = starttime-laststrtdt
"            laststrttm           = starttime-laststrttm
"            prddays              = 1
"            prdhours             = 0
"            prdmins              = 0
"            prdmonths            = 0
"            prdweeks             = 0
"            sdlstrtdt            = starttime-sdlstrtdt
"            sdlstrttm            = starttime-sdlstrttm
            strtimmed            = starttimeimmediate
"            targetsystem         = host
       exceptions
            cant_start_immediate = 01
            invalid_startdate    = 02
            jobname_missing      = 03
            job_close_failed     = 04
            job_nosteps          = 05
            job_notex            = 06
            lock_failed          = 07
            others               = 99.
  if sy-subrc eq 0.
                                       "error processing
  endif.

Then... for import/export of a variable, you can use Import Memory and Export Memory function.

Like this:

REPORT A:
  IF NOT it_dlist_out IS INITIAL.
    EXPORT it_dlist_out TO MEMORY ID 'TEST1234'.
  ELSE.
* Clearing memory
    FREE MEMORY ID 'TEST1234'.
  ENDIF.

REPORT B:
IMPORT it_dlist_out TO lt_dlist_out FROM MEMORY ID 'TEST1234'.

Hi Joao,

For using EXPORT/IMPORT use below syntax,

If internal table needs to be exported then in Program A

EXPORT gi_final TO MEMORY ID 'GI_DATA'.

In Program B use

IMPORT gi_final TO gi_final1 FROM MEMORY ID 'GI_DATA'.

(Here gi_ginal1 will have same type as of gi_final).

Hope this helps you.

Best Regards,

Akanksha.
