Execute in Backgroung

[Former Member]

Hi,

When user execute report in background (F9) he can choose to delete the spool after printing (DELETE IMMEDIATELY AFTER PRINTING option).

I don't want the user to be abble to do that?

Any idea?

Thank in advance,

Hi Joseph!

One (bad) option is of course modification.

An other way is, planning a second job by your report with correct setting in case wrong option was used and terminate the first job.

But I would set on user training.

Do you want this for every program that the user can run in background or just one particular program/transaction?

Can I do it by using FM 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'?

Maybe I can can change at runtime the options of print parameters?

Hi

Yes I think you should do that:

use that function to get out print parameter and then clear the parameter to delete the spool after printing:

DATA: OUT_PARAMETERS LIKE PRI_PARAMS, VALID.

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

EXPORTING

• ARCHIVE_ID = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• ARCHIVE_INFO = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• ARCHIVE_MODE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• ARCHIVE_TEXT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• AR_OBJECT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• ARCHIVE_REPORT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• AUTHORITY = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

COPIES = '001'

• COVER_PAGE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• DATA_SET = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• DEPARTMENT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• DESTINATION = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• EXPIRATION = C_NUM1_UNKNOWN

IMMEDIATELY = 'X'

• IN_ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS = ' '

• IN_PARAMETERS = ' '

• LAYOUT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• LINE_COUNT = C_INT_UNKNOWN

• LINE_SIZE = C_INT_UNKNOWN

• LIST_NAME = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• LIST_TEXT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• MODE = ' '

• NEW_LIST_ID = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• NO_DIALOG = C_FALSE

• RECEIVER = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• RELEASE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• REPORT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• SAP_COVER_PAGE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• HOST_COVER_PAGE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• PRIORITY = C_NUM1_UNKNOWN

• SAP_OBJECT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• TYPE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• USER = SY-UNAME

• DRAFT = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

• ABAP_LIST = ' '

• USE_ARCHIVENAME_DEF = ' '

• DEFAULT_SPOOL_SIZE = C_CHAR_UNKNOWN

IMPORTING

• OUT_ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS =

OUT_PARAMETERS = OUT_PARAMETERS

VALID = VALID

• EXCEPTIONS

• ARCHIVE_INFO_NOT_FOUND = 1

• INVALID_PRINT_PARAMS = 2

• INVALID_ARCHIVE_PARAMS = 3

• OTHERS = 4

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

if valid = 'X'.

OUT_PARAMETERS-PRREL = SPACE.

submit USER SY-UNAM VIA JOB <JOBNAME> NUMBER <JOBNR>

TO SAP-SPOOL

SPOOL PARAMETERS OUT_PARAMETERS

WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO AND RETURN.

ENDIF.

Use fm JOB_OPEN and JOB_CLOSE to schedule the job.

I finally did what I want with FM

Hi

This fm is correct if you don't want to allow the user sets the print parameters, but I've understood the user couldn't set only one parameter (to delete spool after print).
