BACKGROND PROGRAMS:you can debug the background jobs, use the command BDUG

One way of debuging programs which are already running in background is via transaction SM50. This displays a

list of process running in the server. In order to debug the program go to Menu option:

Program/Mode>Program>Debugging.

Hi,

Add the following code in your pgm For creating a dummy loop.

Data: w_I type I.

w_i = 0.

Do while w_i = 0.

Enddo.

• Since w_i is always o this will go in a loop.

Once You fire the jon in background go to SM37, select your job by ticking the checkbox, then Select option JOB from the menu bar ( 1st from left )----->Capture Active job. Noe you are in debugg mode, & pgm will halt at one of the above added statements. Change the value of w_i to say 1 so that 'endless loop' will end & pgm will proceed with code after 'Enddo'.

I hope this helps,
