Hi nikhil,

as far as I know the background process gets its own work process with its own memory areas as other processes do. Shared memory may be accessed from here as from elsewhere.

Or what was your thought for this question?

Hi Nikhil K.,

Your question is quite confusing: about ABAP memory and SAP memory, background process works exactly the same as any other process (dialog or other). If there's not enough memory, programs will dump.

Note that ABAP memory and SAP memory are only little parts of the memory used by SAP. There are the roll area, paging area, extended memory, SAP buffers, etc.

Could we know the reason why you need to handle that?

Best regards,

Sandra

Hi

Both memories are present in a background process and they work just as a normal online process

Hi,

i want to know if both SAP memory and ABAP memory are not present then in which area Background processes will be executed.

erm, they are always present. Processes do not execute "in" these 2 memories. I advise you to read some reference documentation: [SAP library: Functions of the SAP Memory Management System|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/02/96279d538111d1891b0000e8322f96/frameset.htm]

The only difference I know between dialog and background is the sequence in which the roll, extended and heap memories are allocated.
