Help on EXPORT / IMPORT in Background Job

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I need to pass data from a workarea and an internal table to another program that needs to be submitted in background job.

My problem is that EXPORT / IMPORT is not working.

I have tried the following:

EXPORT wa_header i_item TO MEMORY ID 'ZMYID'.

EXPORT wa_header i_item TO DATABASE INDX(AR) ID 'ZMYID'.

EXPORT wa_header i_item TO SHARED BUFFER INDX(ST) ID 'ZMYID'.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

DATA: le_indx TYPE indx.

Export and Import should work in the background job. Instead of moving the data to memory you can move to index table like

• Export the output table to memory

le_indx-aedat = sy-datum.

le_indx-usera = sy-uname.

le_indx-pgmid = sy-repid.

EXPORT wa_header i_item =wa_header i_item

TO DATABASE indx(xy)

FROM le_indx

CLIENT sy-mandt

ID 'ZMYID'.

SUBMIT ZXXXXXX

AND RETURN.

Inside the submit

• Import the input table from memory

IMPORT wa_header i_item =wa_header i_item

FROM DATABASE indx(xy)

TO le_indx

CLIENT sy-mandt

ID 'ZMYID'.

Thanks,
