HI,

If the user Press the Button, then check whether the background is running , if the nackground is running then raise a pop-up and give a mesage saying that 'A background program is still running'.

to check whether the Background is running or not ---> Goto Table TBTCO, then give the Job name and get the status, if the status is still running then give the message, if the status is completed then run the job

Hi,

write following code after the button click action:

select * from tbtcp into table i_tbtcp where progname = 'ZXXXXX'.

if sy-subrc = 0.

loop at i_tbtcp.

if i_tbtcp-status = 'R'.

• message for program already running

endif.

endloop.

endif.

Just keep track of whether or not the transaction has been submitted. If it has, give an error.

Hi

In the Interactive Event for that Button call the transaction SM36 by scheduling that Job by calling the fun module JOB_OPEN,...JOB_CLOSE..

and when next time pressed write a select for the tables

TBTCP,TBTCO,TBTCS and fetch the data for that program and job, it will give the SJOB status

based on the status you can call a Progress Indicator fun module or popup to display the status of the job
