How to set a Executable ABAP Program to run as a Background Batch Job

[Former Member]

Hi

Currently I had a Executable ABAP Program which when executed prompts for user to enter selection once entered and executed it will delete user entered selections from a Table.

Now my requirment is to enhance that program to run it as a BACKGROUND BATCH JOB so that there will be an entry in SM37 when the program is executed

How can i achieve this

Create a batch input session using transaction SHDB.

Then run the session in background, can see in SM37.
