OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED error

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I am trying to run a custom BAPI program as a background job through the transaction sm36 and se38.The status of the job becomes "Cancelled" within 1 sec and it says there is an Object null reference.

If anyone has come across a similar error before,please be kind enough to revert with the solution.

Thank you.

I think the program has tried to accept a component using 'NULL' object referance.

something like this:

data: o_obj type ref to <class>.

create object o_obj.

Hi,

The object you had used in the program should be declared as :

data : OBJ TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.

Hello,

Thank you for your replies.

The error in the dump is as follows :

The current ABAP program "SAPLCNDP" had to be terminated because one of the

statements could not be executed.

Error Analysis :

Attempt to access a component using 'NULL' object reference (points

to nothing).

An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)

before you can use it to access components (variable: " ").

Either the reference has not yet been set, or it has been reset to

'NULL' by a CLEAR statement.

As this is a standard code I cannot make any changes to the code.

What parameters do we need to pass when running a program in background ? Is there any special addition I need to make to the code for executing the code in background ?

Regards,

Gaurav.
