Job Outcomes: Displaying Job Logs

Use

For each background job that is run, the background processing system generates a log which may contain the following:

• Job-progress messages from the background processing system

• Error messages from the program(s) that were run in the job

• In the case of external programs, any output from the external program that was redirected to the job log.

The following sections explain how to do the following from an ABAP program:

• Allow a user to display a job log

• Read the contents of a job log into an internal table for further processing (creation of a single log for all job steps in a job, for example).
