Hi Hanuman,
TCode  : MDBT
click Create Variant button (specified a variant name and click continue).
Then fill in the following fields :- 
Scope of Planning         : Optional (refer to Note if you want to specify a plant grouping) - This is used normally when you have multiple plants or want to limit the capability of planning run.
Plant                             :  Plant Id
Processing Key             : NETCH  ( This allows for Net Change Planning - you choose this based on requirement whether you want to do total planning (normally first time when you run mrp - usually not preferred in background job).
Create PUrchase Req.  : 1    (choose based on requirement)
Schedule lines               : 3
Create MRP lists          : 1
Planning mode              : 1
Scheduling                    : 1
Planning date                 : default date
Click the Back button and you will be prompt Save Values.
Type in a Description and click the Save button.
After creating the variant, park your cursor at the variant and click the Schedule job button.
Fill in the Date and Time value.
Click Schedule periodically and you are prompt to choose the period.
Click the Create button and you are done.
To check, you can click the Show Scheduling button.
