How to deal with a spool in a report?

Former Member · ‎2008 May 21

In my ABAP program, I have to write the output of a standard report, say MB51, to a spool request, download the spool and again read the spool records.

How can I achieve this ? Can someone guide me the way with an example.

Regards,

Alok.

Hi u can use submit option to run the program, submit it as background Job. You will get the output in a spool. Otherwise also u will get. then get the spool request no and use this to read the spool data. Here is one sample program which will convert a spool datas into pdf format and will send it as an attachment

report zpp430_report_in_pdf no standard page heading line-size 255.

Thanks Binu, I shall go thru this code and get back to you.

I am also rewarding you accordingly.
