Hi,

We have a program scheduled in background. The output of this file is expected to be in excel format (neither CSV, nor tab separated). Kindly suggest, how to provide output in an excel format.

Regards,

Aniruddha Bane

You might have used SY-BATCH = 'X'

In background you can see the output generated in spool as a list output.

If you need to use excel output too use GUI_DOWNLOAD after at selection screen output event after succesful

execution of background job process.
