Hi

Current Scenario : when I execute IW38 transaction with a specified variant, I get list of orders displayed in ALV ,after this I select all the orders and click on orders ->Print Orders this will trigger the print program and will print the orders(Smartforms).

I want to schedule the above mentioned process in the background how can I acheive it through a program ?

Hi bhanu,

You can create a BDC for the above process.and then you can excecute in background.

You can fire it directly from the selection screen, choose Program -> Execute in Background.

You can also fire it by scheuling it in a background job via SM36.

Lastly, you can write a program that will create the background job. See Below.

report zrich_0004 .

data: sdate type sy-datum,

stime type sy-uzeit,

l_valid,

ls_params like pri_params,

l_jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,

l_jobname like tbtcjob-jobname.

start-of-selection.

• Get Print Parameters

call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

exporting

no_dialog = 'X'

importing

valid = l_valid

out_parameters = ls_params.

• Open Job

l_jobname = 'ZRICH_0005'.

call function 'JOB_OPEN'

exporting

jobname = l_jobname

importing

jobcount = l_jobcount.

• Submit report to job

submit zrich_0005

via job l_jobname

number l_jobcount

to sap-spool without spool dynpro

spool parameters ls_params

and return.

• Kick job off 30 seconds from now.

sdate = sy-datum.

stime = sy-uzeit + 30.

• Schedule and close job.

call function 'JOB_CLOSE'

exporting

jobcount = l_jobcount

jobname = l_jobname

sdlstrtdt = sdate

sdlstrttm = stime

• strtimmed = 'X'

.
