Schedule Time Evaluation Job

Hi Experts,
I have a requirment to schedule Time Evaluation Job Automatically at Every day 12:00 am midnight. Could you pls help how to create variants and schedule the job.
Thanks
Priya

Hi, Priyadarshini.
You can schedule a job also doing the following.
1. Enter in transaction PT60.
2. Define the parameters in the enter screen and save as variant.
3. Go to menu: Program --> Execute in Background.
4. Define the printer (so we can check the log error). Here use some printer already installed in sap and inform to send to SAP spooler, then you'll able to see the log in SP01.
5. Click on the button "Date/Time";
6. Inform the Date and the Time in "Schedule Start";
7. Click on the button "Periodic job";
8. Click on "Period values" and define Daily.
And this is it. I think it's better you access the program like this to schedule the job, once in the Productive client, usually, we don't have access to the SE38.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Luciano.

Difference between dispatch time in po and scheduled time in job

Hi all ,
can any one please explain me
what is the exact difference between dispatch time maintained in po and time/date set for job schedule
here my question is ,i maintained dispatch time as send job with periodically in PO and i had maintained date/time in job process steps with some period.
when po message is triggered ,which time will be consider system.time specified in job schedule or dispatch time in Po.
which one consider first?
Thanks
konidala

Dispatch time that is set up as part of the message output condition records, drives at which event does the output be transmitted. Conversely, the date/time during the batch job set up is the time when the batch job must execute the program.
For example, if you had selected the dispatch time for output NEU in the PO to be '1' and you had set up ME9F program as a background job running daily once at 1PM, when the PO is created and saved at 10AM, the output type NEU will be triggered and will be held in queue. At 1PM when ME9F program is run as part of the background job, it'll pick up this output type for execution and transmission.

Scheduling Time Based Jobs using Web Dynpros.

Hello Again,
I would like to know if it is possible to perform time based jobs using Web Dynpros, I have a situation where a Web Dynpro application updates a Database and then later during the day say at around 9:00 PM, I would like the Web Dynpro application to transfer all the updated Data to another Database, I know we can run a batch job but can we run create a Web Dynpro application to programatically fire a batch job at the required time.
I am welcome to any suggestions.
Best Wishes,
John.

Hi John,
WD is not good option for this. I would suggest you to "extract" logic to separate layer and use Timeout service (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas630/helpdata/en/6b/2550d23ef1994580114d6064bc44a1/frameset.htm) - call logic from service.

How to fix an error (related to work schedule rule) in Time evaluation ?

Hi experts,
I am getting an error while running time evaluation - PT60.
Find the log
Log:TimeEvaluation General data
Schema ZM04 Time Evaluation Without Clock Times
00753402 Christoudas Natalie
Customizing error in work schedule rule 1 VM 01 5MTWTF Person rejected: 00753402
How to fix it? Its urgent.
Be assured of points for useful answers.
Rajesh

Hi All,
I have checked work schedules and work sc. rules. everything looks fine. Reason being fine, same work schrdule rule, i.e. 5MTWTF is used for other employees, whose payroll area, personnel area, personnel subarea, employee group and employee subgroups are same.
Why it is throwing error for one employee 753402.
I am providing you more information. In table V_T569r, if u select recalculation category as time evaluation, it is mentioned as 01.01.2003. Initially, one action called "Conversion take on" has been maintained as on 01.03.2002, where employee had payroll area -99 (payroll irrelevant) and personnel subarea - DAYY.
Then on 17.03.2008, another action ran "Conversion initial reassignment" where payroll area changed to "MT - monthly", subarea changed to DAYF. At that time PDC recalculation date in infotype 0003 was 01.03.2002 which was before recalculation date, i.e. 01.01.2003.
Time evaluation was throwing 2 error messages. one was solved by changing PDC recaluation date to 17.03.2008. But other error related to work sc rule 1 VM 01 5MTWTF still occurs.
Can some body now provide some useful information?
Thanks
Rajesh

Changing job schedule time

Hi,
I have scheduled a job to execute at a specific time daily.
But now I want to change the execution time, job will execute daily.
How to do that ?
Regards,
Amit R.

hi,
Specifying Job Start Conditions
Use
When scheduling a background job (either from Transaction SM36, Define Background Job or CCMS ® Jobs ® Definition), you must specify conditions that will trigger the job to start.
Procedure
Choose the Start condition button at the top of the Define Background Job screen.
Choose the button at the top of the Start Time screen for the type of start condition you want to use (Immediate, Date/Time, After job, After event, or At operation mode) and complete the start time definition in the screen that appears.
For the job to repeat, check the Periodic job box at the bottom of the Start Time screen and choose the Period values button below it to define the frequency of repetition (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or another specific time-related period). Then choose the Save button in the Period values screen to accept the periodicity and return to the Start Time screen.
Once youve completed specifying the job start conditions, choose the Save button at the bottom of the Start Time screen to return to the Define Background Job screen.
No job can be started until it is released, including jobs scheduled to start immediately. Since releasing jobs can be done only by a system administrator from the job management screen (Transaction SM37) or by other users who have been granted the appropriate Authorizations for Background Processing, no unauthorized user can start a job without explicit permission.

Could you please help on the issue.
Requested start time during job scheduling populated with local time even though we have assigned the GMT time zone.
Could you please help , how to change the settings of request start time calender icon to populate the GMT time.
thanks,

Hello Gerben,
Thanks for the reply, even though the default time zone set as GMT in user settings, the requested start time calender pop up the local time instead of GMT time.
Previously requested start time poped up the GMT time, we have observed this change once we have ran the redwood script for time window elements change and imported some of the job definitions, applications & time windows from other system.
Below is the script we have ran thought shell script
Script Fuctionality
1. Take the mentioned time window
2. iteratate thought the time window elements and add 1 hour to the "time to day from" & "time to day to" parameters.
3. set the changed parametes to time window and persist the changes.

               jcsSession.persist();
Once after the script competetion the time window time zone remains in GMT.
Could you please check script once and help us the time zone change caused the by script or not?

Time Evaluation for work schedule during midnight

Dear all SAP HR Expert,
We have question regarding time evaluation.
Our scenario is:
Shift 1 00:00 - 07:00
Shift 2 07:00 - 16:00
Shift 3 16:00 - 24:00
His work schedule:
06.08.2010: Shift 2
07.08.2010: Day Off (Free)
08.08.2010: Shift 1
09.08.2010: Shift 1
10.08.2010: Shift 1, but he took one day annual leave on this day
Actual data (in IT2011 and IT2001):
clock in 06:30 of 06.08.2010
clock out 16:30 of 06.08.2010
clock in 23:30 of 07.08.2010 (come earlier)
clock out 07:30 of 08.08.2010
clock in 00:35 of 09.08.2010 (late)
clock out 07:15 of 09.08.2010
leave record: start date: 10.08.2010, edn date: 10.08.2010
Base on SAP documentation that said we can never assign a time event before midnight to the next day, we have rearranged SAP configuration (DWS and PWS) to:
DWS:
Shift 1: 23:59 - 06:59 with tolerance 23:59 - 00:00 and 06:59 - 07:00
PWS:
For Shift 1, always set 1 day earlier than actual schedule.
Thus, work schedule rule will indicate:
06.08.2010: Shift 2
07.08.2010: Shift 1 23:59 - 06:59
08.08.2010: Shift 1 23:59 - 06:59
09.08.2010: Shift 1 23:59 - 06:59
It works!!
Our problem is, time eval can not find clock in - clock out record for date 09.08.2010 (because record in IT2011 with date 09.08.2010 belongs to 08.08.2010) and can not match it with leave record (because leave data has start date 10.08.2010).
Thus, time eval will generate warning message "Employee not at work".
I hope you can give me input on how to solve this problem.
Best Regrads,
Achmad

Exact Steps to schedule a background job a specific time daily :

Dear All,
Please let me know the whole process involved in schedule a background job a specific time daily. what is calender id. I could not understand what it has given in SM36.
Thanks in advance.
Rgds
Prem.

Hi prem
this is complte procedure for ur requirment.
Scheduling Background Jobs
Use
You can define and schedule background jobs in two ways from the Job Overview:
Directly from Transaction SM36. This is best for users already familiar with background job scheduling.
The Job Scheduling Wizard. This is best for users unfamiliar with SAP background job scheduling. To use the Job Wizard, start from Transaction SM36, and either select Goto ® Wizard version or simply use the Job Wizard button.
Procedure
Call Transaction SM36 or choose CCMS ® Jobs ® Definition .
Assign a job name. Decide on a name for the job you are defining and enter it in the Job Name field.
Set the jobu2019s priority, or "Job Class":
High priority: Class A
Medium priority: Class B
Low priority: Class C
In the Target server field, indicate whether to use system load balancing.
For the system to use system load balancing to automatically select the most efficient application server to use at the moment, leave this field empty.
To use a particular application server to run the job, enter a specific target server.
If spool requests generated by this job are to be sent to someone as email, specify the email address. Choose the Spool list recipient button.
Define when the job is to start by choosing Start Condition and completing the appropriate selections. If the job is to repeat, or be periodic, check the box at the bottom of this screen.
Define the jobu2019s steps by choosing Step, then specify the ABAP program, external command, or external program to be used for each step.
Save the fully defined job to submit it to the background processing system.
When you need to modify, reschedule, or otherwise manipulate a job after you've scheduled it the first time, you'll manage jobs from the Job Overview.
pls give points if it is usefull

How to check why some of the Cron jobs didn't ran at the scheduled time?

This is my first question ever on the forum. Hope I'm following the format of posting the thread.
I could find a similar query on the forum but couldn't find the exact answer.
Versions:
Oracle: 11.2.02.0
Linux: Linux xxxxx 2.6.32.12-0.7-default #! SMP 2010-05-20 11:14:20 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/LINUX
In our crontab there are lot of scripts that ran at the scheduled time. Around 3 reports didn't ran at the scheduled time today?
There is no error or some error mail saying that those reports got failed. They just didn't ran at that time.
How to find out why those jobs didn't ran?
Is there anything like cron log or something like that to trace it?
Please guide me. Thanks in advance.

When posting there, you can save yourself a bit of time by going ahead and showing the line from crontab for a report that "didn't run", and perchance the script itself. Best enclosed in the / tags to preserve formatting.

Time Evaluation - To generate quota on first of every month Quota Func

Hi Friends,
thers is an issue regarding quota generation on first of every month as standard functionality it will generate on end of every month but i want it to generate on first of every month without using RPTQTA00
Waiting for a positive response
Thanks In Advance

Hi,
Even i am facing issue in the same scenario..Inspite of making accural period as " Time Evaluation Period" it still gets transferred at month end & not at the start of any month.
Is there any other workaround other than Job scheduling .

Use of Time Evaluation to generate Absence Quota

Hi,
We are planning to use time evaluation to generate absence quota. At the moment we are using RPTQTA00 report to generate Absence Quota. We have negative time management and since, the project has already gone live i have very limited scope to change the basic settings for example we do not have any employee subgroup to identify part time employees, PT & FT are in one employee sub-groups. We have only one ESG & PSG for time recording, time quota etc. The base entitlement is defined for the FT employees and it is reduced propertionately based on the employement percentage in IT0007. Now we are going to adopt a change in design, and planning to have specific work-schedule for PT employees. In that case, we will not have the scope to maintain %age in IT0007 for part time employees but exact no of working hours will be used. It means that system will treat the PT emploees as FT while generating absence quota and output the FT absence entitlement. As i said earlier we can not differentiate PT employees from FT employees based on ESG or PSG, i can not create a separate quota selection rule for part time employees. Hence, we are moving from running RPTQTA00 report to time evaluation for absence quota generation purpose.
Now can anybody please help finding a alternate solution for the above, if it is possible to do it through report RPTQTA00 or we have to adopt the time evaluation. In case we are going to generate absence quota through time evaluation, can we only generate absence quota and skip anything that is related to payroll.
Any comments/suggestion/advise will be very helpful to us.
Thanks.
Sujit

We are not able to generate absence quota for part-time employees as when we do that, system is treating PT employees as FT employees and the FT base entitlement is referred while calculating absence quota. i can not define separate absence entitlement for PT employees as we have only one ESG and PSG, and based on this quota selection group is defined. The QUOMO feature is defined based on work contract - employee sub-group (there is no separate emp sub-group for PT employees) - Pay Scale Group. We are having this problem as we have specific work schedule for PT employees now (Ex. we create 3 days work schedule with 15 hours: 4.5,4.5, 6 hours) and we are not maintaining employement percentage for them. So system is treating PT employee as FT employee with 100% employement percentage. Please let me know if you need any specific info to understand my issue.
Thank you so much for the response.

Time evaluation generate check out entry

Dear Gurus,
How can we generate Check out entries thru Time evaluation?
The sales employees come to office in the morning, they punch in and leave for sales activity. They don't get overtime, but pay / absence quota deducted if they don't check in in the system.
While running Time evaluation, I am getting error in TE03 (delimiting error). I hv tried creating second entry using TF00. Its not working. Has anybody any solution for this?
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Gurus,
I am rephrasing my requirements. have 2 queries,
1. Sales Employees make only Clock In entries. System should generate the clock out entry or should not throw any error message. System should consider total working time from daily work schedule.
   - TE30 function is generated the entry in TEVEN table based on planned end time, but we need to create the entry in IT2012 otherwise, while processing next days entry, it generates error.
   - Will TF00 create an entry in Time Events IT2051 ? IF yes, how can I tweak TF00 rule to generate Time out entry.
2. General Staff working hours need to be calculated from Shift Start even if they come early. Max working time is 12 hours with 4hrs from start of end of Shift period
   - If shift start is 7AM, I have defining Start tolerance as 6AM to 7:05AM, but still the system is considering the Clock In time for hours worked.
I have to write this condition. How to write ?
   If Clock-in Time < Start Time
      Then   TIP->From = Start Time
I believe it has to be put in TL10 after rounding the Check in & check outs.. so as to update table TIP,
Please suggest,
Regards,
Vijay

Absence Quota Change ( Without Time Evaluation )-Change in Holiday Calendar

Hi Experts, We have scenario where we need to change the holiday calendar. Add additional holiday. This can be done through SCAL and after that we can generate work schedule through PT01 for the month where the holiday is added. We are not using time evaluation. Our time manangement status is 0 in IT0007. The input I require is how to correct the absence quotas of employees for which they have applied leave for the period where the new given holiday is created. Please advise. Thanks in advance. Regards, IFF

Hi,
Standard SAP provides TCode PT_UPD00 for this purpose. It calls program RPTUPD00 which creates a batch input session for revaluating absence and attendance records. You can use this program to resave all the leaves which overlap the given date which is now a public holiday.
I hope this information is helpful for you and resolves your query.
Thanks and regards,
