Batch Input Session - Display Error Only - SM35

[Former Member]

Dear all,

Need to do material master extension in MM01 and considering batch input session using mode 'display error' only.

However,do have a concern on its performance or run time. In SM35, running in display error only mode - will there be any time out error like the ones encounter in abap reporting ?

This is because, we will be dealing with a huge volume of data (round 2,000). Therefore would like to know, if there would be any possibility that the bdc session in sm35 will experience a time out or not .

Appreciate it if you could shed some lights on this. Thanks in advance.

Yes it will time out, because it will be running in foreground. Try running in Background.

Hello there,

Executing MM01's batch job in background wasn't really an option. This is because, this error was encountered "Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached".

Had done a search on this -- and it indicates that in background mode there isn't GUI involved. Searched result also shows that this error appears when its comes to screens with text ie. Purchase Text or Sales text. Nope, no BDC on entering text involved.

Therefore the option am considering is executing the batch job in "Display Error Only". Nonetheless, am not too sure if this will cause time out. The other reason as to this option is that -- we initially introduced CALL TRANSACTION for extending material in MM01. However, functional feedback that it was slow.

Kindly advise - thanks in advance.

HI

Please try to execute the Job in ground once .So that you will have idea whether its because of huge data or

might be in your code there may be infinite loop like that also .

So i am not pointing out your code . but if u execute in background if its taking too much time like 24 hrs like that it is bcoz of data huge ..

If any infinte loop is there in ur code we can correct by seeing the Back ground JOb log .

Please revert me if you have any concerns ...

Hi,

if u r running in the background mode with the mode 'E' i.e. error mode ,,,it will dispaly the screen if any error occurs otherwise it will process the job till it ends..and it will keep that job untill u delete the job..

Hi,

Excute in background mode or sheduled as JOB then you will not get timed out problem. Even if it is backgroung sheduled then also you go SM35 and select option errors only display for proccessing the records.
