Batch in put session is the same for all the modules and processes. Its independent and it can be use for all the processes. In SM35, we can select the session for recurring entry or for any other scheduled process. We can manage sessions, lock it, unlock it, see logs etc. For running batch input session it gives us 3 options. Foreground, background and errors only. Foreground means system will roll all the transaction on the screen and we can see it. Background means system will process all the transaction in background.
