not allowing in background no output is coming

You cannnot use any of these function modules in Background. There is no easy way of interacting with the presentation server in backgorund, Instead you could do background processing and store the file in app server and then transfer it from app server to presentation server.

This is one of the complicated way to do it:

I do not want to create RFC detination.Is there some other way to do this.

Please guide

[Former Member]

If you dont create a RFC destination then there is no other way to access presentation server(desktop) in background.

One other alternative is to run the main program in foreground, submit a job of an program which does all the processing in background...then read the output of this background job, and then save it to excel in foreground.

There is no possible way to download the file on Presentation Server through Background Job.

In background this is not possible

HI,

Submit the program and store the output in Memory.

Get the memory contents using FM LIST_FROM_MEMORY, and data will be in ABAPLIST format.

Now you convert the data from ABAPLIST to EXCEL format.

Hope this helps.
