Check The Job Status

Question

Hi SAPsimhas,
My requirement is as below.
I will loop through an internal table and create some files with background processing method.(JOB_OPEN,SUBMIT & JOB_CLOSE)
Now once this job is triggered I need to check the status for that job after maximum 10 mins. Its not neccessary that each job will take 10 mins. only,It can be finished in 2 mins also.
Once the job is finished then I will XCOM that file.
So my question is how to code such timer which will check the job status for that job? I have a FM BP_JOB_READ which returns the job status.
Reply is highly appriciated.

Try this way
  do.
    call function 'SHOW_JOBSTATE'
      exporting
        jobcount         = p_jobc
        jobname          = p_jobn
      importing
        aborted          = v_aborted
        finished         = v_finished
        ready            = v_ready
        running          = v_running
        scheduled        = v_scheduled
      exceptions
        jobcount_missing = 1
        jobname_missing  = 2
        job_notex        = 3
        others           = 4.
    if v_aborted eq 'X'.
      exit.
    endif.
    if v_finished eq 'X'.
      select single * from tbtcp into wa_tbtcp1
                 where jobname eq p_jobn
                   and jobcount eq p_jobc.
      if sy-subrc eq 0.
        move wa_tbtcp1-listident to p_spono.
      endif.
      exit.
    endif.
    if v_count le 10.
      call function 'ENQUE_SLEEP'
        exporting
          seconds = 60.
      v_count = v_count + 1.
    endif.
  enddo.
