Parent not finished until children complete - stops new job from starting

Is there anyway that we can 'de-link' 'disassocaite' - some method that we can start a new job again - even though children of a previous job are still active.
This is causing quite a problem in our system whereby we need to start another background job of the same but the status is still active due to children...

Thank you Gerben, more useful insights.
I have had a respone from Simon whom is technical resource for CPS.
"What Gerben was suggesting was that you simply have multiple scheduled occurences of the same job, which wouldn't really work either since you could end up with at least two jobs running at the same time. e.g while you could schedule two jobs to run every ten minutes but stagger the start time so they are 5 mins apart you are still contrained by how long the whole process takes before another is scheduled.  If you add more jobs then the frequency of the jobs are likely to coincide with other jobs which could lead to duplicate postings (something that has already happened).
Regards,
Simon"

This question has now been answered...It looks very promising as a fix on the CPS side - as opposed to having to code an fix on the SAP end - which is the best solution for this particular problem. Thanks to all whom contributed.
Simon does point out an important fact that you actually will have multiple jobs running at the same time. But that is what you are looking for: you want to run the next job before the previous childs are finished.
To disable the fact that CPS waits for child jobs, you need to set (you may need to add it first) the parameter WAIT_FOR_CHILD_JOBS on your copy of SAP_AbapRun to "N".
So you can choose for each job if you want it to wait for child jobs. As Simon pointed out, for most cases you do, but in your particular situation you may want to deviate from the default behavior, and that can be done using the above mentioned parameter.
Hope this helps,

  • Stop a job from printing

    Hope Experts how are you today?
             One of our users created a job SD_203_Z_AUTO_DEL.  Everytime this jobs runs it prints out. She would like to stop this job from printing. Is there anything in SM37 job overview that I need to change. If not in SM37 than were do I go. I see that SU01 under Spool Control OutputDevice is QU6, but if I change this than she won't be able to print anything. Sorry for the novice question. I don't spend alot of time in SAP these days........   

    Using transaction SM37, you can select the job from the list and select Job -> Change from the menu.  Select the Step button, which will list the steps in the job.  Select the step (program) that creates the output and select Step -> Change from the menu.  There should be a Print Specifications button at the bottom of the screen.  Select this button and then select the Properties button.  Change the Time of Printing to 'Send to SAP spool' and save all of your entries.

  • How can i stop my mbp from starting up in target disk mode

    how can i stop my mbp from starting up in target disk mode

    It should only do that if you hold down the T key at startup.  Otherwise the PRAM battery is probably near death, or the T key needs to be cleaned so it doesn't think it is being held down.  To clean the keyboard properly, you will probably need to bring it in for service.

    Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

    One thing to check:  when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

  • How do I stop new tabs from opening - all I want is one window that I can click back and forth on the page history

    I do not want multiple windows or multiple tabs. In older Firefox versions just one window could be set, using the page history to go backwards or forwards. How do you disable new tabs or new windows from automatically opening in firefox 7?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Can't stop the syncronizer from starting

    I am runnning Elements 8 on an XP system.  When the Photoshop.Com syncronizer runs, it sucks the life out of my CPU.  That would be ok with me because it appears I should be able to tell PS8 to only sync when the system is idle, however I can't keep the syncronizer from starting up.
    I stop the syncronizer and I also have turned off the flag to sync when new ablums are created.  However if I try to rename an album, the syncronizer fires up no matter what I do.  Until the syncronizer stops, I can't use my PC.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    On the welcome screen there is an option to manage the account, Sign out from there and it shoould be the perfect. Or after launching the program (Organizer or the Editor) go to the menu bar and click on your name to sign out. Once you sign out it will not syncronize.
    You can also try to Open the task manager and under processes end the one that says as backup.

  • How to stop the executable from starting when opened

    Hi Guys,
    I am building an exe with the application builder. I am not able to find a way to stop the exe from running when opened. I dont need the exe to run. I know I m missing a very basic step here but I m not able to do that.
    Could anyone explain me how to do this.
    Regards,
    Nitin

    Hello,
    This is Dominic L. from Applications Engineering at National Instruments. This was reported to R&D (CAR#41DAPUQU) and was fixed in LabVIEW 8.2.1. Here is a link to the current evaluation software download for LabVIEW:
    http://digital.ni.com/demo.nsf/websearch/14f9ce475127ade786256ac60070926c?opendocument
    This particular bug actually renders all the build options for source file settings unusable. While the other options can be set manually in the source VI properties, the start-up VI will always run when an executable is opened.
    Here are three different workarounds to this:
    Option 1 - Upgrade to 8.2.1. 
    Option 2 - Check "Enable debugging" and "Wait for debugger on launch" in the Advanced page of the build specification. One side effect is this will include the block diagrams of the VIs and extra code for debug tool support. Note that if you don't protect the source code (block diagram), it kind of defeats the purpose of creating an executable.
    Option 3 - Use a dummy startup VI to launch the desired startup VI.
    For the third workaround, the attached "Dummy Startup VI.vi" uses VI server to open the desired startup VI's front panel and then closes.  To use the Dummy Startup VI follow these steps:
    Add the Dummy Startup VI to the project.
    Open the Dummy Startup VI and change "Main VI.vi" to the VI you would like to open but not run in the project and save.
    In the source files page of the build, select the Dummy Startup VI as a startup VI and the VI you would like to open but not run as a support VI.
    Build and run.
    I hope this helps.
    Have a great evening!
    Best Regards,
    Dominic L.

  • Can't stop a job from plsql 27486 - stops fine from sql

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a simple package that will stop known jobs that the user owns. (Same user owns the jobs and the package)
    the code just does
    dbms_scheduler.disable('JOB_EMAIL_QUEUE', TRUE);
    dbms_scheduler.stop_job('JOB_EMAIL_QUEUE', TRUE);
    At stop_job I get
    ORA-27486 insufficient privilege
    ORA-06512 at "SYS.DBMS_ISCHED", line 164
    ORA-06512 at "SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER", line 483
    Yet if I put the exact same code in an anon block it runs fine in sqlplus for the same user. The user holds the role SCHEDULER_ADMIN but I have now granted him execute access on both dbms_isched and dbms_scheduler.
    Whassup?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Hi,
    I think what you're seeing is caused by the following two facts
    - a user must have the manage scheduler system privilege to stop a job with force=>true
    - definer's rights pl/sql stored procedures don't honour system privileges granted through roles. See
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/appdev.101/b10807/08_subs.htm#sthref1072
    The simplest solution is to grant MANAGE SCHEDULER directly to the definer of the definer's rights stored procedure.
    Hope this helps,
    Ravi.

  • ICAL will not let me Accept or Decline new Invites from outlook users

    Hi using Ical with mobileme new calender. Ical will not let me accept or decline any new meeting invites or change and updated invites sent to me.

    So as the owner of a 140 year old brand who appreciates just how important it is to continue satisfying your customers, I have to wonder just how long will it take for Apple to lose the loyalty of its raving fans?
    I love my iPad . . . except that it won't work with Adobe Flash which makes it kind of useless for many sites that I visit.
    I love my iPhone, unless I actually want to use it outside of my home (Cincinnati is always 10 years behind, and our AT&T network is all but downtown for large parts of the day).
    And I love my iMacs, so much so that I paid big bucks to integrate it into my office network (I am the CEO, so I can do that) and convinced my wife, mother and mother-in-law to switch from PCs.
    Life was grand, integrated, happy!
    And now, the MobileMe upgrade, which tried (unsuccessfully) to force me to Snow Leopard (I was able to complete the upgrade manually); then refused to work with Google Calendar (annoying, but I switched my wife's calendar to MobileMe and eliminated the need for Google Cal); but now, I cannot get Outlook notifications to work. Really?
    If Apple is going to now be **** bent on making sure that their products are completely incompatible with Microsoft and Google, then I may have to switch back. I understand that Windows 7 is much better than the old XP that I gladly left behind. My cousin has an Android phone which appears to work great. There are now a plethora of new tablet PCs running Android that all appear to be great. And my wife was happy with Google calender and Google Docs, so maybe technology has finally evolved to the point that we no longer need Apple, Steve Jobs or his arrogant my way or the highway brilliance any more.
    It is a sad day. I loved Apple. I admired Steve Jobs. But frankly, I feel that my loyalty is being taken for granted by an arrogant company that no longer gives a **** about its customers wants and needs. I NEED Apple devices that can work and play nice with Google, Outlook and Adobe Flash. And Mr. Jobs, if you are too **** proud to deliver this kind of functionality to your customers, the day is fast approaching (and may already be here) when I can find other companies that are willing to do whatever it takes to make my life just a little bit easier. My loyalty is not free, but comes at a price: namely, that you respect me as a customer. The Apple that I knew AND LOVED is fast losing its shine. Does anyone care?

  • How to stop new tabs from opening while using safari?

    When I am using safari random pages will open in new tabs and i am constantly having to close the tabs. How can I stop this?

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • How can I transfer music not purchased on iTunes to my new computer from my iPod?

    I recently got a new computer and wanted the music from my iPod on it. I have a ton of CD's so over half the things I have on my iPod aren't things I purchased from iTunes.
    When I went through the process of transferring (it only gave the option to transfer purchases) there were no songs from any of my CDs.
    I have tried everything I know how and still I have not found anything to actually help. I've backed it up and there is still nothing new in my iTunes.
    Why can I not transfer items not purchased from iTunes to my new computer? How do I do this?
    I would greatly appreciate it if you would put an answer in the simplest form possible as I am not very tech-savvy.
    I would also like to do this simply and without downloading another program if at all possible.
    I have a Windows 7 computer if that is of any help.
    Thank you!

  • How do I stop new tabs from opening with Bing (i've check the add-ons and extenstions)

    My homepage works fine, but when I open a new tab, that page opens to a Bing search page. I've gone to tools>add-ons> and searched both add-ons and extensions... there nothing listed there that refers to Bing.
    Once the tab opens, i can hit my home button which takes me to my home page, but that step is annoying.

  • PerformancePoint Designer is not loading when clicking on "Add new item" from PerformancePoint Content List

    Hello,
    I am using Internet Explorer 9 to create a new item by launching Performance Point Dashboard Designer from browser. 
    When i click on "Add new item", an Iframe will open showing dashboard design redirect which keep loading for couple of minutes and the designer never opens. 
    Yes, there are working workarounds like opening these links in other tab or opening dashboard designer directly or by clicking on "Run Dashboard Designer"  from BI Center homepage. 
    However, Can someone please help me how to get designer opened when "Add new item" has been clicked from  PerformancePoint Content List from browser? 
    Thanks in advance.
    NKV Prasad Panthangi

    An Update :
    I found this is due to the browser limitation. 
    I have downgraded my Internet Explorer Browser to IE 8 and did the following changes in my browser settings. 
    Tools --> Internet Options --> Navigate to Security Tab --> Click on Custom Level Button --> Under Download --> Select "Enable" radio box for Automatic Prompting for File Downloads. 
    Sadly, I cannot ask users to downgrade their browser to IE 8 because MS already stopped support for this browser and there are no other solution for this except going by workarounds. 
    This clearly says why people are moving away from PerformancePoint Services in SharePoint. 
    Thanks
