Creating a variant for background scheduling

Former Member — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 08:12:55 GMT

Hi All ,

I have 3 seperate executable programs which take filename as an input on the selection screen ( from the application server ) . Now the requirement is to schedule these programs as background jobs using a variant , but the variant is not possible as there can be many files in the directory at the same time with different filenames.

We need to execute all the avalaible files in the application server directory at that time .

If someone can give any idea how it can be possible to schedule these in background , I would appreciate the same .

Thanks

Ankit

Hi Ankit,

You can specify those filenames using SELECT-OPTIONS with no-intervals. or else you will have to create variant for each file.

Amit

hi,

One thing u can do is,

Store the filename into one txt file,

and through program read this file for your input purpose,

that which prog. has to run....

I hope this will help u.
