How to stop Active Background Jobs
Hi All,
We have some immediate hotfix to be applied during which there should not be any background job running. At the same time, we don't want to kill the processes forcibly.
Is there any other way to pause/stop the active background jobs and enable later to run where it has been paused/stopped?
Thanks
Vijay
Hi,
I knew these reports to suspend/release scheduled jobs.
So, do we need to wait until the jobs are complete? This should not be the case, as there might be some other jobs which will start while we wait for the existing job to complete.
Any other thoughts.
Thanks
Vijay

How to stop the background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic"
Dear All,
Kindly let me know how to stop the Background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic" which is running everyday.
We want to stop this background job.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
MullairajaSelect the Job using SM37 transaction. In the Menu Choose
Job ---> Cancel Active Job.
Before you do this it may be good idea to check the pid using SM50.
It will be using a Background work process. Check the pid and the status.
Select the same and in the Menu Choose Process --> Cancel with Core.
Refresh and check in SM37 for the Active and Cancelled Jobs. -

Check which background process your job is running from the Job details and inform your Basis consultant to Kill the process. If you have sm50 acess or sm66 access you can do the same.

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
MalaHi,
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.

How to Schedule SAP background job at OS Level
Hi All,
Can Anyone tell me how to Schedule SAP background job at OS Level (unix).
Regards,
AnilHi Anil,
I donu2019t know your requirements, anyway itu2019s possible to setup your SAP job in order to start after an event, and after that you can get the event triggered from the Operating System in the following way:
- log into you Operating System with the SIDadm user id (at the Operating System level) and go to directory /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run
- Run the SAPEVT executable as follows:
sapevt YOUR_EVENT -t pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/DEV_DVEBMGS00_server001 nr=01
This will raise the event, and cause the job scheduled within SAP to execute.
You can periodically execute this job with crontab.

How to schedule a background job in realtime
Hi,
Can you tell me how to schedule a background job in realtime.
give some example scenerios in scheduling the background jobs in realtime.
Thanks.
sam.And also.....
There are two ways for you to handle,
one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,
secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.
Find below steps in doing both:
Procedure 1:
1. Goto Trans -> SM36
2. Define a job with the program and variant if any
3. Click on start condition in application tool bar
4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time
5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"
6. Next click on Period Values
7. Select "Other Period"
8. Now give '15' for Minutes
9. Save the job
Procedure 2 via Program:
Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.
DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,
L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
IMPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_CREATE_JOB = 1
INVALID_JOB_DATA = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
OTHERS = 4.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
SUBMIT ZTEMP2 VIA JOB 'ZTEMP2' NUMBER P_JOBCNT
TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
WITH DESTINATION = 'HPMISPRT'
WITH IMMEDIATELY = SPACE
WITH KEEP_IN_SPOOL = 'X' AND RETURN.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
EXPORTING
JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT
JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'
STRTIMMED = 'X'
PRDMINS = 15
IMPORTING
JOB_WAS_RELEASED = L_RELEASE
EXCEPTIONS
CANT_START_IMMEDIATE = 1
INVALID_STARTDATE = 2
JOBNAME_MISSING = 3
JOB_CLOSE_FAILED = 4
JOB_NOSTEPS = 5
JOB_NOTEX = 6
LOCK_FAILED = 7
INVALID_TARGET = 8
OTHERS = 9.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
Hope the above helps you.

How to schedule the background job daily twice?
Hi,
How to schedule the background job daily twice? any conditions?
Regards,
Srihithasee the step by step procedure.
Scheduling Background Jobs:
1. Background jobs are scheduled by Basis administrators using transaction SM36.
2. To run a report in a background, a job needs to be created with a step using the report name
and a variant for selection parameters. It is recommended to create a separate variant for each
scheduled job to produce results for specific dates (e.g. previous month) or organizational units (e.g.
company codes).
3. While defining the step, the spool parameters needs to be specified
(Step-> Print Specifications->Properties) to secure the output of the report and help authorized users
to find the spool request. The following parameters needs to be maintained:
a. Time of printing: set to Send to SAP spooler Only for now
b. Name abbreviated name to identify the job output
c. Title free form description for the report output
d. Authorization a value defined by Security in user profiles to allow those users to access
this spool request (authorization object S_SPO_ACT, value SPOAUTH). Only users with matching
authorization value in their profiles will be able to see the output.
e. Department set to appropriate department/functional area name. This field can be used in
a search later.
f. Retention period set to Do not delete if the report output needs to be retained for more
than 8 days. Once the archiving/document repository solution is in place the spool requests could
be automatically moved to the archive/repository. Storage Mode parameter on the same screen
could be used to immediately send the output to archive instead of creating a spool request.
Configuring user access:
1. To access a report output created by a background job, a user must have at
least access to SP01 (Spool requests) transaction without restriction on the user
name (however by itself it will not let the user to see all spool requests). To have
that access the user must have S_ADMI_FCD authorization object in the profile with
SPOR (or SP01) value of S_ADMI_FCD parameter (maintained by Security).
2. To access a particular jobs output in the spool, the user must have
S_SPO_ACT object in the profile with SPOAUTH parameter matching the value used
in the Print Specifications of the job (see p. 3.d above).
3. Levels of access to the spool (display, print once, reprint, download, etc) are
controlled by SPOACTION parameter of S_SPO_ACT. The user must have at least
BASE access (display).
On-line reports:
1. Exactly the same configuration can be maintained for any output produced
from R/3. If a user clicks Parameters button on a SAP Printer selection dialog, it
allows to specify all the parameters as described in p. 3 of
Scheduling background jobs section. Thus any output created by an online report
can be saved and accessed by any user authorized to access that spool request
(access restriction provided by the Authorization field of the spool request
attributes, see p. 3.d of Scheduling background jobs section).
Access to reports output:
1. A user that had proper access (see Configuring user access above) can
retrieve a job/report output through transaction SP01.
2. The selection screen can be configured by clicking Further selection
criteria button (e.g. to bring Spool request name (suffix 2) field or hide other
fields).
3. The following fields can be used to search for a specific output (Note that
Created By must be blank when searching for scheduled jobs outputs)
a. Spool request name (suffix 2) corresponds to a spool name in p. 3.b in
Scheduling background jobs section above).
b. Date created to find an output of a job that ran within a certain date range.
c. Title corresponds to spool Title in p. 3.c in Scheduling background jobs
section above).
d. Department - corresponds to spool Department in p. 3.e in Scheduling
background jobs section above).
4. Upon entering selection criteria, the user clicks the Execute button to
retrieve the list of matching spool requests.
5. From the spool list the user can use several function such as view the
content of a spool request, print the spool request, view attributed of the spool
request, etc. (some functions may need special authorization, see p.3 in
Configuring user access)
a. Click the Print button to print the spool request with the default attributes
(usually defined with the job definition). It will print it on a printer that was
specified when a job was created.
b. Click the Print with changed attributed button to print the spool request
with the different attributes (e.g. changing the printer name).
c. Click the Display contents button to preview the spool request contents. A
Print and Download functions are available from the preview mode. -

Hi Experts,
I would like to ask on how to kill a background job in SAP? I have tried to cancel it via sm50, sm37, dpmon, and even the kill -9 command but none of those commands can solve the issue still the job is running.
Can you guide me on how to deal to such issue and if you know a command on how to kill that particular job.
Hoping for your immediate response.Hi,
I think you may not have proper authorization to kill the job.
You can kill the job through SM50 as follows.
SM50 -> Choose the background job -> click Process -> and then click Cancel without core.
If the job is still not getting killed you can ask your basis person to kill it.
