you can do recording, but you cannot perform BDC on enjoy Transactions in Background. Since Enjoy transactions are built on Controls. so accessing the Activex controls in background is not possible, so they will fail in background. you will get some fatal errors, Gui cannot be reached etc. however BDC will work in foreground on enjoy transactions..
The goal of using SHDB is to create BDC programs and sessions. But BDC doesnu2019t support Enjoy transactions. SBWP is a Enjoy transaction too.
Enjoy transactions use Enjoy SAP Controls like ALV Grid, ALV Tree. If you run BDC in background these Controls would not be able to communicate front-end since they need some files in front-end (client - PC), so BDC fails.
Therefore what can be done? There are two possibilities:
1- ) There might be a alternative, usually older version, transaction. You can use it. For example ME22N is a Enjoy transaction, but ME22 is the older one, does the same thing. So ME22 can be used. As far as I know the older version of SBWP is SO01, but when we run it it goes to same program.
2- ) If it is available, a BAPI can be used. Whatever you want to do, you can search BAPIs and use it instead of BDC technique. I think unfortunately there isnu2019t any BAPI related to SAP Business Workplace
