Hi All

When i try to execute background printing for transaction code MCBA, system is finishing the job but not creating the spool. But for other transactions it is creating the spool corectly.

Please Advice.

Thanks

Hi Ravindra,

is it working in foreground?? i mean is it creating the spool in foreground for that transaction??

Also, chk for that transaction in some output setting if 'Release after output' check box is checked. if it is checked , the the spool generated gets deleted automatically after printing..

hope it helps..

Hi Bikash

The output is coming if we choose foreground. I checked the other setting also, still the spool is not creating if we choose in background.

Check for background print parameters like Report page, Report width, format.

Also new spool request check box.

Hi ravindra,

1. U are right.

2. The output does not come when we run this

in background.

3. The reason in the program for mcba.

4. Its program name is :

RMCB0100

5. inside this there is one include RMCS00AL

6. Which has the condition

<b>IF SY-BATCH</b>

(for background detecting)

7. Now what it does afterwords, i could not detect,

but

8. This program DOES SOMETHING / DOES NOT DO SOMETHING

specially for BACKGROUND PROCESS,

BY DETECTING IT THRU

SY-BATCH.

Refer Note 60283

It explains why no spool is created. Instead, the data is

stored in a selection version and from here you can print the data

However can anybody tell me. how to delete these spools. I can only delete them one at a time. Is there any job to delete periodically
