How to find process chain using background job in sm37

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

Better is to select the job.
Select (Define) Step (s) or F6.
Select the line and Menu Goto>Variant.
The variant contains the name of the CHAIN and its VARIANT.
Success
We faced an old job and via job monitoring we were informed about a cancelled job every 'interval'.
We noticed that the related chain was deleted but still the job was scheduled each interval again and was cancelled because an event was missing
We could not find the scheduled job via SM37.
Via view V_OP, view over tbtco abd tbtcp, we find the related entry.
We delete these entries via function BP_JOB_DELETE....

Hi Rase,
goto SM37 and click on the active selection and enter the jobname and then click excute the particulr job should appear highlight the jobname then click on the stop iconthat appears on the taskbar( 3 rd from left)
or goto SM50 Click on the process and select process->stop without core
or
set a running infopack of the chain (in RSMO) to red, thats will stop the chain (if there are no parallels, else set all parallels to red).

I am not able to open a batch input job using SM37

Hi Gurus,
I am not able to open a batch input job using SM37. I enter SM37 through a well authorized ID. May be there is a authorization issue or may be not. I check all the check boxes even then it is not possible. Please help me.

Hi Amit Sharma,
If I am not wrong, the problem would be because you have not closed the job after creating it.
You must have used JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT but not JOB_CLOSE.
Job_Close is the FM which submits the created job to the background processing system.
Hope this resolves. If not, paste your code here so that we can have a look
Thanks,

Can't find my job in SM37

Hi All,
Iam facing an unique problem:
I've started reconstructing a request in an infocube.
The 1st data packet was running and I was also able to see the job in active status in SM37.
And the remaining data packets were in red status and were no messages in them, while for 1st data packet I could see the message 'start of processing update rules'
When Iam not in the shift, our team saw that 1st packet turned green and other packets are red, they thought reconstruction failed and for 2nd packet they selected manual update without my knowledge.
Now, when I checked my job in SM37, I could find no jobs in my id.
But I could see that 1st packet is green and the 2nd packet also turned green as Iam typing this message. Now without my involvement I can see for 3rd data packet the processing has started from which I assumed that my job is still running ( or did I assumed wrong).
Now, where can I check if my job is running. As I can see in the monitor that 3rd data packet has started, I want to confirm that it is surely running.
Ah, Iam working on Production.
Please tell me how can I go about it.
Thanks & regards
AP

Hi,
goto SM37 without any date and active job (all users).
Your job could be running under ALE/ALEREMOTE or your communication user, or any other user.
The packets are turning red after the timeout setting of your IPack and depending on the setting "treatment of warning"; this doesn't mean that your job stopped...
In your particular situation if the job is running should you see it as BI_NEW* (as far as I remember...).
If you have identified your job, double click it and press F7 to obtain detailed info and see in which server / process it is running and it ia doing....
hope this helps...

Cant delete active JOB from SM37

Hi guys, i need to delete a job from sm37, when i try to do it the following msg is displayed.
cant delete HR job, the job status is active.
When a job is deleted, a check is made as to whether the job does not
currently have the status 'active' of 'ready'. It would cause
unquantifiable problems if a job with this status was deleted. This
message indicates that the SAP system has already started the job to be
deleted.
any ideas?

Hello,
In SM37 try to stop the job before and if doing it you can't delete the job, go to transaction SM50 and try to stop it here (Process->Cancel withot core).
Regards.

Background Jobs in SM37

Hi frnds,
I've an active job running, which i've scheduled for daily and the job frequency is 2 hrs.
The job is running for 2 days but it's successor jobs are in finished status as it is triggered for every 2 hr.
The job which was running still for 1 day I'm not able to see in SM50, but is still active in sm37.
Could anyone suggest what i've to do.
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar

Hi Kumaresh,
Some times the Jobs will be hang up due to system problems,even that you can see the Jobs in SM50,But in your case it is not visible in SM50.The successor jobs got finished as they are scheduled for 2 hours.
Now what you can do is cancel the active job which is running for twodays and again run the job .

Need to e-mail job log after job completes (SM37)

Greetings!
I need to export the results of the Job Log (run SM37, double-click a finished job and then click "Job Log" button at top - this is the list I need). Obviously, the program has already terminated so it won't be able to initiate it. Is there another way?
The need is to have this log be e-mailed automatically after it's ran or, at the very least, have a second "step" (job?) that reads the previous one and e-mails it's log.
We'd like to keep it automated and not have someone in operations have to remember to do this.

Hi,
Debugging can be done as follows:
1. Put a breakpoint at the beginning report CRM_MKTTGGRP_EXPORT_BATCH
2. Select your previously executed job in transaction SM37
3. Type 'jdbg' into the tcode field in the upper left area
To analyze the results and messages of the campaign execution, you can also have a look into the application log, either in the campaign application or in transation SLG1. There you should find details why the BPs have not been contacted.
Hope this helps,
Frank

How to view ALL batch job details (SM37) at one glance ?

Dear all,
I am documenting all released batch job details, the information required includes the job name, client number, job frequency .. etc.
In order to see that information, i go to SM37 and click on each job to see the details. I have about 60 jobs released, to get their details i have to click on them at least 60 times.

Delete old users/jobs in sm37

We have some old jobs created in SM37 (R/3 4.7)
Some of the people who created the jobs has now left the company.
How do I assign the jobs to a another user so we get rid of old names in jobs "created by" column in sm37.

Brian,
Not all jobs created by people who have left will be necessary to run in the system.
Create a standard user, exclusively for running background jobs, login with the user, go to sm37, list the jobs created by people who have left, copy them and delete the earlier scheduled instance of the job. Schedule the job, created under the new id as per your requirements.
Make sure you delete the earlier jobs with status as scheduled / released / ready / active, or else they will trigger another instance of the job under the old user-id's

For this JOB, you can check what is the Program and Program variant it is executing...
From the log you gave, it seems its a custom job scheduled on some program.
Select the job, and click on steps.. it will take you to step list overview...
then menu goto -> variant.
this will tell you what program was running..
based on the program you can decide if the SM37 job should be deleted or not..
If you found that you still need the job, then you can just change the executing user of that JOB,,, replacing the older ID with any new ID

Function module to monitor Job Status (SM37)

Is there a function module or a table that I can use to monitor JOB STATUS in BW?
Thanks in advance!
Cristina.

Hi Cristina,
they are two alike SM37 giving you back the result in a table; very powerful:
BP_JOB_SELECT_SM37B            Select Background Requests
BP_JOB_SELECT_SM37C            Extended Job Selection
goto se37 with one of these. Testing mode: enter A for dialog mode. Perform some selections and execute.
Check the result and how the system has populated the import parameters.
let me know if that's what you wanted
Olivier.

This is urgent please help! long running job in sm37 but not in sm66

Hi,
Can someone please help for an explanation as to why if you call sm37, you can see that the job is long running (example about 70,000 sec), but when you look at the PID where the job is running in sm66 it does not show 70,000 sec but only around 6,000 sec.
Can someone please explain why? Thank you very much

For background processes, additional information is available for the background job that is currently running. You can only display this information, if you are logged onto the instance where the job is running, or if you choose Settings and deselect Display only abbreviated information, avoid RFC. In any case, the job must still be running.

Anilsai
