Sy-batch not getting set in background

[vinotha_m]

Hi Everyone,

There is an output type we are triggering from VT02n in Background where there is some process taht happens when Sy-batch is X.

but here the system variable does not get set.

Could theer be any reason why.

Hi Vinotha,

Sy-batch will always set to 1 when the program is run in background.

How did you find out if the sy-batch was set to 1 or not.

Probably there must be some other check in the program due to which it is not executing the way it should.

Hi Sushil,

When i try doing update debugging that is triggered in the background i know that the varaibale is not gettng set..

or even when I run it normally..I know for sure that a diferent check or validation is being done.

Thanks,

HI,

Could it be becasue its not an Sm30 background job..but an update task..

But ideally even then I thought it should be set..

or is there any otehr way to distinguish..between normal tasks and update tasks.

Thanks,

Vinotha M

use the function module , to determine whether in update task ..or not..

call function 'TH_IN_UPDATE_TASK'

importing

in_update_task = zutask_mode.

case zutask_mode.

when 1.
