Submit job in background

[abdulazeez12]

Hi All

I have a program with selection screen. The selection screen has Job name as one of the parameters. When I press F8 (Execute), this program should get scheduled in the background with the job name taken from selection screen. How to submit a program by itself in background.

Please suggest.

Thanks

SUBMIT z_prog_name

AND RETURN

VIA JOB wf_jobname NUMBER wf_jobcount

TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

KEEP IN SPOOL 'X'.

this will execute the report z_prog_name in backgroung..and report will go to spool.

Hi,

Press F9 from the program itself after entering the selection parameters

Or

Create a selection variant and go to SM36 and give some valid name , program name with variant and save and schedule.

Hi

U should create a checkbox in the selection-screen in order to decide which action to be done:

- Run the report

- Schedule the job

Anyway it should be better u schedule the job by another report, because you avoid a recursive process.
