I want to execute my report in background when the user checks a checkbox in selection screen and pressing execute(F8).Not directly by F9 option in selection screen.

Hi

then you need to create a BDC program

when w_check eq 'X'.

perform BDC using progname .

the BDC program should run in the background mode as well so user will not see the screens

you can use session method as well to run the program in background

use w_check eq 'X' AT selection-screen output.

so you will not have to press F8 to make it work

As gurpreet said you can also use job_schedule FM to schedule it in background

Use:

Function Module:

JOB_OPEN

JOB_CLOSE

JOB_SCHEDULE

Hi Ravi,

Follow below logic.

If check box is selected

AND sy-batch IS INITIAL. "Means currently u r running report in foreground

CALL FUNCTION JOB_OPEN.

SUBMIT ur program using SUBMIT statement.

CALL FUNCTION JOB_CLOSE.

ELSE.

Normal processing.

ENDIF.

Thanks,
