If you want to create a job to run in the background from an ABAP, look at function group BTCH , particularly FM simple_batch_job_submit.

***************************************

Check this code -

*Submit report as job(i.e. in background)

data: jobname like tbtcjob-jobname value

' TRANSFER TRANSLATION'.

data: jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,

host like msxxlist-host.

data: begin of starttime.

include structure tbtcstrt.

data: end of starttime.

data: starttimeimmediate like btch0000-char1.

• Job open

call function 'JOB_OPEN'

exporting

delanfrep = ' '

jobgroup = ' '

jobname = jobname

sdlstrtdt = sy-datum

sdlstrttm = sy-uzeit

importing

jobcount = jobcount

exceptions

cant_create_job = 01

invalid_job_data = 02

jobname_missing = 03.

if sy-subrc ne 0.

"error processing

endif.

• Insert process into job

SUBMIT zreport and return

with p_param1 = 'value'

with p_param2 = 'value'

user sy-uname

via job jobname

number jobcount.

if sy-subrc > 0.

"error processing

endif.

• Close job

starttime-sdlstrtdt = sy-datum + 1.

starttime-sdlstrttm = '220000'.

call function 'JOB_CLOSE'

exporting

event_id = starttime-eventid

event_param = starttime-eventparm

event_periodic = starttime-periodic

jobcount = jobcount

jobname = jobname

laststrtdt = starttime-laststrtdt

laststrttm = starttime-laststrttm

prddays = 1

prdhours = 0

prdmins = 0

prdmonths = 0

prdweeks = 0

sdlstrtdt = starttime-sdlstrtdt

sdlstrttm = starttime-sdlstrttm

strtimmed = starttimeimmediate

targetsystem = host

exceptions

cant_start_immediate = 01

invalid_startdate = 02

jobname_missing = 03

job_close_failed = 04

job_nosteps = 05

job_notex = 06

lock_failed = 07

others = 99.

if sy-subrc eq 0.

"error processing

endif.

This is the Basic code to Achieve that.

Call Function 'JOB_OPEN'

SUBMIT RSBDCBTC

via background Job <Job info>

With QIE = <QID Returned by BDC_OPEN_Group FM>

AND RETURN.

Call Function 'JOB_CLOSE'

**********************

2) Also go through this

DATA: lv_job_name LIKE tbtco-jobname,

lv_job_nr LIKE tbtco-jobcount,

lv_job_released TYPE c,

lv_job_start_sofort TYPE c,

lv_print_parameters TYPE pri_params.

lv_job_name = 'Z_BGPROGRAM'.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'

EXPORTING

jobname = lv_job_name

IMPORTING

jobcount = lv_job_nr

EXCEPTIONS

cant_create_job = 1

invalid_job_data = 2

jobname_missing = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF syst-subrc = 0.

" submit job with all the selection screen params...

SUBMIT (lv_job_name)

WITH applfile = applfile " these are the parameters of the background program

WITH p_lines = p_lines

USER syst-uname " you must use this

VIA JOB lv_job_name NUMBER lv_job_nr AND RETURN.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'

EXPORTING

jobcount = lv_job_nr

jobname = lv_job_name

strtimmed = 'X'

IMPORTING

job_was_released = lv_job_released

EXCEPTIONS

cant_start_immediate = 1

jobname_missing = 3

job_close_failed = 4

job_nosteps = 5

job_notex = 6

lock_failed = 7

OTHERS = 8.

IF syst-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE i162(00) WITH

'An error occured while closing the background job.'.

STOP.

ENDIF.
