Hello SAP gurus,

I am very new to this thing can some please tell step by step how to proceed.
Thanks for all your help in advance.
Thanks
Sha

Hi Shayan,
These are the steps:
1.- Go to SM36 transaction.
2.- Put the job name.
3.- Select the "Start condition" button. The system will open a new screen.
4.- Select the option needed (Immediate, date/time, etc.). If you select "Immediate", click on save button.
If you select "Date/time", define the date and the time that you want to run your job. Then, click on the "Period values" button and select the option needed (i.e. hourly, daily, etc.) and save.
5.- Save the "Start time".
6.- Click on the "Step" button. The system will open a new screen.
7.- In the "Name" field, put the program of the VT01N transaction: SAPMV56A
8.- In the "Variant" name, put your variant name that you created before.
9.- Save the "Steps".
10.- Once you go back to the initial screen, save the job.
11.- Check your job scheduled in SM37 transaction.
Hope this help.
Kind regards.

How to schedule a batch job to generate security audit log (SM20)

May be this is a repeat question for this forum. Apologize, if it is. Is there a way to schedule a batch job to generate security audit log (SM20) automatically and possibly send a message to SAP Inbox or generate a spool request? Release is 4.6C.

How to schedule azure batch jobs?

Hi.
I created an azure batch job app using Azure Batch .net client, following the instructions on http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/batch-dotnet-get-started/.
All the concepts are not very clear to me yet, and it lacks a complete documentation (I understand it is still new/under development).
Where do I upload the azure batch program?
How do I schedule it?

Hi
If I understand correctly you want to try to only use Batch to run both the web crawling jobs and tasks as well as the client code that creates the jobs and tasks.
I'm pretty sure you can do what you want using Batch. I'll give you the high-level concepts here and some documentation pointers, then hopefully you can find the low-level info in the docs.
To host the client code you should use a Job Manager which is specified when creating a Work Item. The Job Manager is a special task that is run first when a job is created.
To have a job created and run every two hours you need to specify a schedule with the Work Item. A recurrence interval can be specified so a job is created every 2 hours.
To only create the VM's when needed then you should specify an Auto-Pool when creating your Work Item. You will need at least two VM's - one to run the Job Manager task and at least one to run the crawler tasks. Pool lifetime configuration can
be specified so that the pool lifetime is tied to each job that is created every 2 hours - the pool is created when the job is created and the pool is deleted when the job completes.
You'll find these concepts described in the REST API reference for Add Workitem -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn820179.aspx
Assuming you're using the C# client API, you'll need some client code to bootstrap and create the Workitem, and will need to find the corresponding C# API's in that documentation -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn865466.aspx
Hope that helps.

How to schedule SQL Agent job for XMLA script file of SSAS database instead of taking a backup.

I want to script XMLA file instead of backup of database and also want to schedule a job for the process in SQL Agent.
Is there any pros and cons when I script the XMLA file of the SSAS db instead of taking a backup ?
Amir

Hi Amir,
You can take the Create SSAS database XMLA script and run the job to create the cube. The script contains the Metadata definition of the Database and it does not contain the actual data.
Pros: Since you are only creating an empty cube the script will run faster
Cons: You still need to process the created cube to use it for reports.
Fastest option is to take the backup of the cube and restore wherever necessary.
And you can also use TFS source control to deploy the cube and process it later.

How to schedule a background jobs for a function module

HI all,
I have created a function module (zrfc_test). Now I need to schedule it daily around 8am . the 2 tcodes used is sm36 & sm37. But I need a detail description for a function module.
Points will be rewarded
thanks in advance

As there is no direct way of scheduling a function module, you may write a online program (program type 1) and call this function module in side it and schedule the program using SM36. Or you may record a CATT procedure for the function module and schedule it using SCAT transaction.Hope this helps

How to schedule a background Job based on events

Hi,
We are on 4.6 C.
We have a background job that has two ABAP programs.
We need to start the 2nd ABAP program only after the first one has run successfully.
If the second ABAP program does not run, the the job should have a status "FINISHED".
Help appreciated.
Thanks
Mala

Hi,
How to schedule a background Job based on events,please refer to the follow SAP help:
You can use events that have already been defined, or you can create new events for scheduling background jobs.
If you wish to use new events, do the following to implement the event scheduling:
Define and transport the event as a user event with transaction SM62.
You must define only event IDs; event arguments are not defined in the R/3 System. Instead, you specify event arguments when you schedule a job to wait for an event and when you trigger the event.
If you define a new event, you must also transport it to your production systems. The event transaction does not have a connection to the transport system. Instead, you must create a transport request for the event yourself.
Do this to transport an event:
Create a transport request.
Start the editor in the transport request and enter the following:
R3TR TABU <table name> where table name is BTCSEV for a system event ID, BTCUEV for a user event ID.
Press F2 with the cursor on the table name to call up the screen for specifying the table entries to transport. In this screen, enter the event IDs that you have created.
Save and release the transport request. Ensure that it is imported into your production system(s).
To trigger an event, add:
the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE to your ABAP program, or
the program SAPEVT to your external script, batch file, or program.
When your programs execute these keywords, an event will be triggered in the R/3 background processing system. The event-based scheduler is started immediately. It in turn starts all jobs that were waiting upon the event, subject to normal background processing restrictions, such as the requirement that the job has been released to start.
Schedule the jobs that are to run when your events are triggered.
You can schedule jobs for one-time start or to be started whenever an event is triggered.

ABAP query to schedule through batch job

Hi
i have requirement to schedule batch job for ABAP query report and download the report data to local drive throuh batch job.
we have created ABAP query report, and this report should run through batch job and download the report data to local drive,,
please help, how we can solve this.
Regards
Vanraj

Hi Vanraj,
I have two topics to talk about:
1st: in order to schedule a background job, try to do the following:
- Go to transaction SQ01 and select your query
- Check that you've already created a variant, containing the required selection data.
- Instead of running in online, go to "Query > Execute > Exec.in background"
- This will allow you to schedule the background job.
2nd: it is NOT possible for a background job to download a file to a local PC.
I hope it helps.
Kind regards,
Alvaro

How to stop a batch job

Hi Folks,

I am having a batch job which will run a program for every 15 mins in order to update some Z-tables.
I need to debug and do some investigation. Meanwhile when I am doing this debugging it may take 20-30 mins also. Here this background job scheduling is getting started and the table getting updated and I am not able to do any investigation..
Can anyone please let me know how can I stop this batch job scheduled every 15 mins taht is make it stop for an hour. So that after my investigation it should keep on running the batch job for every 15 mins.
Regards
Mac

If u schedule this job from SM36 then u can make it active or inactive from there only. From SM36 ..give the name of ur job then press Extended job selection button..then in next screen choose Active tab and there u can check the checkbox "Job on longer active in time interval" and then give ur time.
Hope this info will help u.
