ERM - Background Static Jobs

Hi Experts,
After doing the initial static background jobs, namely:
- Org Value Sync
- Transaction/Object/Field Sync (the 5 hour job)
- Activity Sync
are this jobs something which should be run periodically in ERM or is it a one-off thing?
Thanks!

Hi,
These static jobs should be ran periodically to synchronize the org values, Tcodes, field values etc. Otherwise custom transaction codes or updates done in the backend system will not reflect in the ERM system. So one day while adding some custom transaction code to role in ERM you may not find the SU24 objects being pulled in !!
Cheers !!

How to change the user of a cancelled background (batch) job?

Hi All,
I have a batch job which is being cancelled as the reference user account is locked. I want to update the job with a new user.
How can I change the user for a cancelled job? I am able to change the user for a scheduled job (by right clicking the job >> Change) but not for a cancelled job.
I am getting the error: "<<Job Name>> cannot be changed due to its status" when trying to change the cancelled job.
Please help.
Thanks
Vijay

Parallel processing in background using Job scheduling...

(Note: Please understand my question completely before redirecting me to parallel processing links in sdn. I hve gone through most of them.)
Hi ABAP Gurus,
I have read a bit till now about parallel processing. But I have a doubt.
I am working on data transfer of around 5 million accounting records from lagacy to R/3 using Batch input recording.
Now if these all records reside in one flat file and if I then process that flat file in my batch input program, I guess it will take days to do it. So my boss suggested
to use parallel processing in SAP.
Now, from the SDN threads, it seems that we have to create a Remote enabled function module for it and stuf....
But I have a different idea. I thought to dividE these 5 million records in 10 flat files instead of just one and then to run the Custom BDC program with 10 instances which will process 10 flat files in background using Job scheduling.
Can this be also called parallel processing ?
Please let me know if this sounds wise to you guys...
Regards,
Tushar.

Thanks for your reply...
So what do you suggest how can I use Parallel procesisng for transferring 5 million records which is present in one flat file using custom BDC.?
I am posting my custom BDC code for million record transfer as follows (This code is for creation of material master using BDC.)

Debugging of background scheduled job

Hi guys,
Can any one explain me 1 scenario why there is a need to debug background scheduled job..., rather then doing in background we can run the same job/report online and do normal debugging.
thx in advance,
Cheers,
Harish

Hi ARPAN,
as long as the job is running, you can enter debuuger from SM50 process overview (program->debug) or SM37 Job Overview (Job->catch active Job).
And to the initial question: Some messages are configured to be created when saving document (e.g. sales invoice). This will trigger a background process. If something goes wrong with smartform or sapscript form, it will cause an update error. This you may need to debug in background.

How to set a Executable ABAP Program to run as a Background Batch Job

Hi
Currently I had a Executable ABAP Program which when executed prompts for user to enter selection once entered and executed it will delete user entered selections from a Table.

Reg:Background MRP Job

Hi friends,
i want to set background MRP job for my client.(Scenarion-MTO)
when they recieve the sales order then only the design people will prepare the BOM (TAKES 2 to 3 days to prepare BOM).
Now if the sales people create the sales order today..design people take 2-3 days to prepare BOM.
if i set daily MRP, the system wil genrate Planned order for incomplete BOM.
can we change the incomplete planned order BOM to our requirement...?
or is there any option in background tto restrict the creation of planned order for sales orders without complete BOM.
let me know.. thnx for everyone.

Dear ,
It is possible , if you keep the Schedule Line Item categoery in VA02-SCheudle lIne -CN-No MRP.
Or you can goto Reason for rejection option in Status field in VA02.
Just to add on that , in case of MTO cycle ,there are following steps :
1.Logging Enquiry for customer -VA11
2. You will logg Quotation-VA21 frist and will carry out the Unit costing if you do not able to finalise the BOM till the design gets approved or customer finalise
3.Then you will logg sales order based on the approval from custmer with refernce to quatation .At that point , you will be having BOM and routing based on design so that Sales Order will capatured the planned cost estimate .
4.Now , if you run MRP with out having any BOM , there will be any componenet planning execpt the header material .
But , if you have prepared you BOM after running MRP frist time and go back to sales order -VA02-Carry out Costing ( Sales Order -Extras -Costing -All green Flag ) and then finally realse the Dynamic credit check in vkm3 for next MRP run in MD02.
Here in the next time , you need to run MDO2-NETCH , 2,1,3,3 ( Delete and Re-create planning ) so that BOM will be updated with relevent planning of depedent .

Background static on GarageBand

The background static in Garage Band is so loud and distracts entirely from the track. How do I turn it down/off?
Thanks!

Since you don't provide more information about how you are recording, I assume it's through the internal mic of your laptop. This mic is sitting right next to the computer's fans, so as soon as they start up, you will pick up their noise - that's the most likely source for your "static" that I can think of. Have you tried recording when the computer is still cold enough so the fans are off? In the long run, you might consider getting an external microphone to record.

Background static in logic pro

This migt be a dumb question, but I am new at Logic Pro.
When I try to use a synth setting with my external keyboard, a loud background static appears. How do I get rid of this???
Thanks!

Can't find the cause - have tried changing all the settings, reinstalling, etc. Nothing seems to work.

ERM background jobs "waiting"

Dear all,
Any jobs I create in ERM - apart from those I schedule manually with "immediate" start - remain in status "waiting" forever and do not get processed.
This applies to periodic updates of transaction/object/activity data etc, as well as to automatically scheduled jobs with type "immediate", such as "Role Approver Update" after I have changed the workflow - approval criteria.
Deactivating/Activating the jobs doesn't help, either.
Am I missing something? Jobs in other capabilities are working fine, so surely it is not a problem with the background daemon itself?
Thanks and regards
Patrick

Thanks for the hint to the note, Sunny.
The note describes the problem, however the resolution is a bit funny. It really justs says that this is by design - surely, however, jobs hovering in "waiting" status without ever being executed cannot be "by deign"?
I not sure if I understand the note correctly.
Regards
Patrick

DP background processing job giving error

Hi All,
I am running few macros in a DP job. The macros are simple ones for just few KF additions.
When I am running the macros in interactive planning mode, and saving the results, it works all fine.
The same macros (in the job) when run in background, I am getting an error - " History cannot be entered in book, you cannot save data" and the results are not saved in the planning book.
Any pointer to this would be of great help.
Regards
Manotosh

Hi All,
I found a similar thread in SDN which describes the issue.
History cannot be entered in book
Is it the check box 'Not ready for input' under Unit Column tab?
Or Input check box (next to Visbile) ?
In our case, 'Not ready for input' is not checked and Input from is checked.

Statistical Forecast not saved when generated with background planning job

Hello All,
The system I am working on is SCM 5.0 Support pack 15.
When I execute the planning job in the background to generate a statistical forecast, the job completes sucessfully, I have a spool that shows the forecast profile was executed (Auto Mod 2) with the appropriate model messages and the last two messages are 'Data saved successfully' and 'No data has been changed; data must not be saved', but when I go into interactive planning to view the forecast, there is no forecast in my key figure.
My planning area has the forecast settings maintained for Statistical Forecast, Corrected History, and Ex-Post Forecast key figures. My forecast profile is looking at the History key figure and Statistical Forecast key figure. My time series has been initialized for 36 months of History and 18 months of forecast. My planning book is set to have the Statistical Forecast Key figure as output only. My activity and planning job are set to execute in the appropriate planning book (in order to see the forecast alerts I have selected) with the specific selection profiles (no navigational attributes), and the aggregation level set (no navigational attributes).
The only way for me to see a forecast is to change the Statistical key figure setting in the planning book to output/input, execute the forecast job in the background, and then go into interactive planning. Am I missing something? Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Roxane H.

Hello Senthilrajan,
I have executed the forecast in the foreground using the same planning book as the background job and same forecast profile (Auto Model 2)with a selection from the batch run (pulled a selection from the spool list) and it generated a forecast with the same messages as my background job except for the last two lines (Data saved successfully and No data has been changed, data must not be saved) that I was able to copy back into interactive planning. I then used this selection in the background job to execute the forecast in the background and did not see a forecast in interactive planning and received the same messages as before -
Data saved successfully
No data has been changed, data must not be saved
The reason we run the forecast in this book is to allow our Demand Planners to view the forecast alerts by book and/or selection directly in interactive planning instead of having to get their from the Alert Monitor. It has worked in the past and is currently working in the same environment just with a different planning book, selections, forecast profiles, and data. It generates a forecast with no 'No data has been changed, data must not be saved' message and the forecast is written in the key figure and is viewable in interactive planning with out manipulating the key figure to be input/output (it is set to output only).
Any further assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Iphone 4s background static noise issue !

I paid a lot of $$$ for a miricle device named Iphone 4S.
I got :
1 - Phone that drains the battery for a few hours. ( this will be fixed I guess).
2. A device that gets very warm when used for half an hour.
3. Very,very annoying static ,buzzing noise when using 3G apps.
Many users claim this is a hardware issue. I'm very worried about that. Will a firmware update fix a hardware issue ?
Apple Support, could you explain in details the issue with the static noise in the background please and your action plan for fixing it ?

Background/ForeGround jobs -- Identify?

Hi ,
We ran some jobs from BI to extract data from SRM.
How to identify whether it is a background job or Foreground Job?
Please let me know step wise.. What Tcodes shall I use in both systems...
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
S

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
Here is my question again:
In BI: Info package is executed in BI (with start data load immediate option ) - which means that the job is running in foreground in BI.
In source system: Is this running in foreground/background?
                           I can view the job in SM37 in source system.
                          Does that mean the job is running in background in SOURCE
                          system also?
Hope I'm clear with my question.
Cheers
S
