Print Report automatically without dialog

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have requirement to print output of report from another program automatically. Below is mycode.My problem is that it is displaying Print dialog although I have set No dialog as X in GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS.Am I doing something wrong ?

Any help appericiated.

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

EXPORTING

DESTINATION = USR01-SPLD

IMMEDIATELY = 'X'

LAYOUT = iv_paart

LINE_COUNT = iv_linct

LINE_SIZE = iv_linsz

NO_DIALOG = 'X'

IMPORTING

OUT_ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS = gs_arc_par

OUT_PARAMETERS = gs_pri_par

VALID = gv_valid

• VALID_FOR_SPOOL_CREATION =

EXCEPTIONS

ARCHIVE_INFO_NOT_FOUND = 1

INVALID_PRINT_PARAMS = 2

INVALID_ARCHIVE_PARAMS = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

SUBMIT Ztest WITH SELECTION-TABLE lt_param

TO SAP-SPOOL

SPOOL PARAMETERS gs_pri_par

ARCHIVE PARAMETERS gs_arc_par

WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

AND RETURN.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

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

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

ENDIF.

Thanks,

Hi Reksap,

I could not see anything wrong. See the test I did on a local printer.

Main program:

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_REFRESH_FROM_SELECTOPTIONS'
  EXPORTING
    curr_report     = 'ZIMPRIMI_SPOOL'

    selection_table = t_param

    OTHERS          = 1.

LOOP AT t_param ASSIGNING <f_param>.

Hi Bruno,

Thanks for replying.I copy your code also but it still display me dialog for printer. the dialog box is not for asking output device but printer.I couldn't paste screen here.Giving details below.

Hi,

I think the problem is not with the print program but with the printer settings in SPAD transaction code.

Please check the printer/spool/device settings in SPAD.

Btw are you using a frontend printer i.e. it should create a spool and also print it directly on the local printer? If yes then maybe your local printer is not properly configured to SAP output device. Generally, we use LOCL as local printer but I think you are using different option 'FRON'.

Regards,

Saba

Hi Saba,

I also feel the same but don't know which setting need to bechanged in SPAD.The ouput device is FRON in our system.Spool is getting created and also printing it to default printer but this print dialog is not suppressed.

In SPAD for Output device FRON do we need to change Access method.In our case it is G : Front End Printing with control Tech.

Thanks,

Rekha.

Hi Rekha,

Try changing the access method to F: Printing on Front End Computer.

Let me know if this works.

Hi ,

Can you check in run time if the destination printer is getting passsed to the function module , in smartforms If you do not specify an output device, SAP Smart Forms opens the spool dialog even if NO_DIALOG is set. Dont know if it is applicable in your scenario , please do a check .

Hi,

I cannot see anything wrong in your code. Just try giving the mode as CURRENT in the import parameter.

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
  EXPORTING
    mode                   = 'CURRENT' " Give the mode as CURRENT
    destination            = 'LOCL'
    immediately            = 'X'
    layout                 = 'X_65_200'
    line_count             = 10
    line_size              = 255
    no_dialog              = 'X'
  IMPORTING
    out_archive_parameters = wa_arc_params
    out_parameters         = wa_out_params
    valid                  = p_valid
  EXCEPTIONS
    archive_info_not_found = 1
    invalid_print_params   = 2
    invalid_archive_params = 3
    OTHERS                 = 4.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
  MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
