SAVE_TEXT - Not working in Batch mode

I am updating Operator Remarks for Return orders using SAVE_TEXT function module. The following is the scenario

1. This text is initialized with text from Customer master when the order is created.

2. I need to add more text after the order is created.

3. So I am reading existing Text. (READ_TEXT) adding my text to the existing and Using SAVE_TEXT to update the text with the new set of texts.

This works well in foreground mode but if I schedule the program in background it fails. Some times it retains the original text and sometimes it takes the new text from my program.

Any solusions? Thanks a lot for looking into this.

Are you using the parameter 'INSERT' in 'SAVE_TEXT' FM?

The module can be used to change existing texts and to create new texts. If it is clear that it is a new text, this can be specified via the parameter INSERT. The result is better performance as a test read is not performed.

Where do you get the additional text from? If you are uploading it from the presentation server, this won't work in the background.
