Hi,

It has all spool no's which are ready to print.

You can use SP01, SP02 tcodes for the same.

when you run a object or an report in foreground you can see all the output on the screen, But when you run the same report in background, how can we see the output???

the output of the program,when the job is run is background is called spool. The background job request from the system to identify it.. for a later purpose.. that is spool request or spool number or spool request number.

Spool request is a document for which a print function has been selected. However, it has not yet been output to a printer or another device. The output data for the print document is stored partly formatted in a data store until an output request is created, that is, until it is sent to a particular output device.

The spool system uses a spool request to store the print data temporarily and to access it. The data is stored in a temporary format. You can also display the print document. The system automatically assigns a 10-digit ID number to a spool request.

Spool requests can be viewed via tcode SP01, the number will be there, programatiically it is sometimes populated in the system field SY-SPONO.
