SY-BATCH

X if the ABAP program is running in the background, otherwise space

Batch Input

SY-BINPT

X while a batch input session is running and when an ABAP program is called using

CALL TRANSACTION USING, otherwise space.

OPTIONS FROM in the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement can set SY-BINPT to space either for

the entire duration of the program, or at the end of the BDC data.

SY-BINPT is always space during a CATT procedure.

Schedule the program using a variant to run in background from transaction SM36.

Hi,

Write the entries logic with the condidtion like below.

after selecting the required data,

if sy-batch = 'X'.

endif.

Even you can put the select statement also after if condition.

now go to SM36 and define the Job with Program name or any other name.

Under Job condition select the execution mode/time of your program.

As you have mentioned the sy-batch condition , your program will work only for Back ground mode.

Hope it helps you.

Kind Regards,
