Scheduled & Released jobs

Hi Friends,
What is the difference between Scheduled & Released jobs in SAP BI 7.0

Hi bhavana D
In general SM37 - Scheduled Job is nothing but a job which was schedules not yet defined to run in feature but if you could check the status it was removed from released and it wont run from next time on words.
Where is release job is job which will take care about regular frequency runs and it is the only which will run periodically.For more details on it please refre the below link

What is released job and scheduled job?

Hi BW experts,
Please let me know what is released job and scheduled job?

Hi
Released job:The job has been fully defined, including a start condition. Without a start condition, a job cannot be released.
Only an administrator or a user with appropriate authorizations for background processing can release a job, preventing unauthorized users from running jobs without approval.
scheduled job: The job which is scheduled for a particular time and that will come into the queue of jobs to which time it is scheduled.
U can see these jobs in SM37 tcode

How to schedule a job to trigger SAP IE send the message

Hi XIer,
Our scenario:
I created a report to use ABAP client proxy to trigger a message in SAP R3. I can see this message has generated in SXMB_MONI in SAP IE(not in XI IE)，but the message status is <message released( commit successful )>, but not send, so I go to SMQ2 inbound queue, and execute the message which pending there waiting for trigger. Then the message successful send out.
My question will be: I believe there will be some background job to do this job to trigger the messages lay in the inbound queue, but I don't know which report will do this job, is there any one can give some hits? thank you very much for your time. : )

Hi -
Have you registered the queues on the R/3 side? In SAP R/3's SXMB_ADM-->Manage Queues, then select "Register Queues" and "Execute Action" button.
Shouldn't need to schedule a job to trigger the send.

Error when scheduling backup job in OEM

What is wrong? I scheduled backup job before on this server and it worked.

This may be due to that the schedule frequecy is not set. Make sure Frequency Type and Repeat Every boxes get filled properly.

Scheduling a job in Oracle

Hi ,
how can i schedule a job from Oracle ??
this is what i declared
create or replace PROCEDURE myjob
IS
v_job number;
begin
dbms_job.submit(v_job,
'PLSQL_program_I_want_to_run;',
sysdate,
'sysdate+1/24');
end;
ques :
1. how shld i schedule it to run every 15 minutes ? i saw from somewhere that 1/144 ==> 10 minutes ? i dun quite understand
if 1/24 equals 1 hr
then for 15 minutes
can i do this ((1/60)*15)/24 ??
2. once i execute this procedure manually , it shld be running as per the next sheduled dates ?
3. can this procedure somehow be set in such a way that if oracle db is up after being down for some reasons , this procedure can auto kickoff by itself ?
appreciate ur advise
tks & rdgs

Hi,
If you are using Oracle release 10g or higher you should be using dbms_scheduler instead of dbms_job for several reasons.
1) Scheduling every 15 minutes is much easier with dbms_scheduler e.g.
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name=>'myjob',
job_type=>'plsql_block',
job_action=>'scott.mypackage.myproc(3);',
repeat_interval=>'freq=hourly;byminute=0,15,30,45;bysecond=0',
enabled=>true
2) Now that jobs have real user-specified names, killing them is easier
exec dbms_scheduler.stop_job('myjob')
This will run the job at X:00, X:15, X:30, X:45 as long as the database is running (even after restarts) and you can pick any job_name you want.
This should meet all your requirements. Hope this helps.

API for scheduling background jobs

Hello friends,
What is the API provided by R/3 to schedule background jobs, apart from the internal transactions, sm36 ?
regards,
Tanmay.

Hi,
There are FMs to create and schedule jobs instead of manually going to transaction SM36.
JOB_OPEN (create a job)
JOB_SUBMIT (attach program to be scheduled and set other scheduling parameters)
JOB_CLOSE (finally release it for use)
Hope your question is answered...

Want to schedule a Job (Strt Cond after JOB which should be periodically !!

Transactions : SM36 SM37 SM37C SM62 S64 SE38
Requirement
JOBA should execute program PROG1 with variant VARPROG1 in background everyday @ 10 AM.
JOBB should execute program PROG2 with variant VARPROG2 in background after JOBA
JOBC should execute program PROG3 with variant VARPROG3 in background after JOBB
JOBD should execute program PROG4 with variant VARPROG4 in background after JOBC.
When i schedule the above jobs for one day ..It works fine !!
We Require when JOBA scheduled daily / JOBB / JOBC / JOBD should should follows,
which will not happen with a option : "Start Condition : After a JOB"
irrespective technical i scheduled 1st job daily and JOBB / JOBC / JOBD as mentioned above. Result : !st dya all jobs got executed and 2nd day only 1st job got released ans got executed.
How can we acheive this ??
Rgds

Hi,
You follow the below process.
1) Define a BG job in your system with Daily Frequency and have four variants in that jobs such a way.
Step-1 ---program PROG1 with variant VARPROG1
Step -2 ---program PROG2 with variant VARPROG2
Step-3 - program PROG3 with variant VARPROG3
Step -4 program PROG4 with variant VARPROG4
If you define the job in this way, this will ensure that Prog -2 will only start when Prog -1 will be over and similarly other will also follow the sequence and in this way you achieve the Daily frequency also.

I want to revoke rights so users cannot schedule periodic jobs

We do encourage users to run reports in Background but we want to prevent them from scheduling periodic jobs.
We want to have more controll over periodic jobs as we observed that users schedule them and then forget about them.
Morover this has become our audit recommendation.
As far as I can see there is no standard way to do it.
Has anyone managed to achieve it?

Hi..
while searching for the answer i have seen following interesting point.chk whether this will help you..
A job is eligible to start when both of the following are true:
The start condition specified for the job is met.
The job has been released to run.
No job can be run until it has been released, even those scheduled to start immediately. To monitor and control what jobs are submitted to run in background processing, the system can be configured so an administrator can check jobs before releasing them to run.
The release requirement can also be turned off on a per-user basis. Trusted users can be given a special authorization (authorization object S_BTCH_JOB (Batch Processing: Operations on Batch Jobs), value RELE) which will automatically and immediately release any job scheduled by that user.

Scheduling V3 Job.

Hello experts,
Need inputs on the below query..
Background:
There is V3 job scheduled for logistics application no. 11, 12, 13as follows
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_13_100---runs daily (all 7 days) at 00:00 for 6 mins
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_12_100---runs daily (all 7 days) at 19:30 for 6 mins
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_11_100----runs daily (all 7 days) at 00:00 for 16 mins
Now there is a R/3 transport going on due to which all users on R/3 will be locked on saturday at 5am to 7am (2 hours). Please note that the R/3 transport is not related to any modifications related to above application no.s.(11,12,13)...the transports are for some other project.
Also the corresponding process chains for logistics application no. 11, 12 and 13 do not run on saturdays and Sundays. The process chains runs daily from Monday to Friday.
Question 1: What actions do i need to take considering the above scenario on BW side.
Question 2: If i run the V3 job from LBWE screen (using Job Control tab) as Immediately, then after the completion of V3 job which were scheduled Immediately, will they be again scheduled as normally they use to (as mention above) OR do i need to again give the start condition (Run daily at 00:00 for appl no. 11, and so on..)
Thanks.

Hi,
Question 1: What actions do i need to take considering the above scenario on BW side.
Nothing needs to be done. You dont't even need to clear LBWQ/ RSA7 queues. They would be taken care of in the next run.
Question 2: If i run the V3 job from LBWE screen (using Job Control tab) as Immediately, then after the completion of V3 job which were scheduled Immediately, will they be again scheduled as normally they use to (as mention above) OR do i need to again give the start condition (Run daily at 00:00 for appl no. 11, and so on..)
If still you want to run the job as immediately, you have 2 ways,
1. From LBWE schedule it the way you have mentioned. This way your job would be trigger only once. And the periodic job which is in place would not be impacted. It would continue to trigger on daily basis.
2. Go to SM37. Here, you would find all your jobs in released status.(If you double click on these jobs, you would find that these jobs are scheduled to run on daily basis. Thats how this job gets triggered on daily basis)
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_13_100
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_12_100
LIS-BW-VB_APPLICATION_11_100
Simply, select any of these jobs. On menu bar, Job-> Repeat Scheduling-> Schedule the job immediately. This way again, your job would get scheduled and would not impact the normal frequency of the released job.

Is it possible to process eCATT in scheduled backgroung job?

Hi,
Can you give me a hint, if you know.
Is it possible to process eCATT in scheduled backgroung job?
I read a thread: eCATT: Scheduling SAPGUI in BackGround.
https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=19274150&messageID=654134
But the problem wasn't solved then.
regards,
Katsumi

Hi,
If you use SECATT or the transactions of the SAP Test Workbench to
execute the test configuration, the file is found and the test
configuration is executed without problems.
is defined in symptom of the Note 1237232.
It is very clear from note that testing in background cannot be automated or scheduled .
But background here means execution in background .
Solution
1.) Start the relevant tests in the background.
2.) If you have to start tests in the background, use transaction SECATT
to load the data from the external variants file to internal variants of
the test configuration before the test execution. You must carry out
this procedure manually in SECATT, and this cannot be automated as part
of the test.
If you want to schedule a particulat eCATT ( regardless of TCD or SAPGUI etc)
we can do it in NW 710 release.
we have a new scheduler for anytype of eCATT , from which we can schedule SAPGUI , TCD,FM...etc..etc.

Hi Sonu,
I have a suggestion as well
Go to the job in SM37. I understand it is in released state.
Select it in using the check box.
Go to menu JOB -
> change.
you will see sm36 screen. Go to start condition. Remove periodic job check. Save in the start condition window . Again Save the job in SM36 window.
To permanantly delete the job.
Go to SM37 by clicking on job selection.
Go to your job and delete it.
You will permantly delete this job.
To schedue/Cancel the released job after that, justuse appropriate option in job menu and their will be no repitition of this job created
Hope it helps,

Schedule Background Job : Remove delivery Block in Sales order

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement to select all sales orders as per a condition and remove delivery block at
VA02-> Go to -> Header -> Status
For that I have to write a program which will be run only in background and i have to schedule background job for the same.
I have a parameter at selection - No of records
If no of records = 500 , I have to submit 500 jobs ie one job each for each sales order for removing delivery block.
I need to know
1) Which function module/bapi I can use to remove delivery block at sales order header level.
For blocked delivery the status is 'BSTK" . to remove block i need to change status to "RSTK".
2) How to schedule a background job for my program and how to submit one job each for each sales order.
Regards
Avi.

Hi Avi,
Would like to seek for your advice. I am facing the same scenario too which is to delete the delivery block but is deletion of the delivery block is done in the user exit MV45AFZZ. The subroutine which needs to have the extra logic of deleting the delivery block is USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE.
Need your advice on how do you solve this scenario? Thanks in advance.

Please advice what could be cause of it

the earlier problem of background job was solved by changing the output device assigned to user wf-batch .
regarding the transport request :
when i was trying to execute the step : "Schedule bakgrd for missed deadlines " MANUEL it was giving me an option of SAVE AND SCHEDULE . which was creating the transport request . but when i executed it automatically it worked fine without asking a request to me ... i don't know why )-: ... probablly we can specify a different interval then the standard of three minutes and which will be transported (it's just a guess) . i have executed it automatically ...
well thanks all for u r help

Thanks.

Did you read DBMS_SCHEDULER docs:
The calendaring syntax does not allow you to specify a time zone. Instead the Scheduler retrieves the time zone from the start_date argument. If jobs must follow daylight savings adjustments you must make sure that you specify a region name for the time zone of the start_date. For example specifying the start_date time zone as 'US/Eastern' in New York will make sure that daylight saving adjustments are automatically applied. If instead the time zone of the start_date is set to an absolute offset, such as '-5:00', daylight savings adjustments are not followed and your job execution will be off by an hour half of the year.
When start_date is NULL, the Scheduler will determine the time zone for the repeat interval as follows:
It will check whether the session time zone is a region name. The session time zone can be set by either:
Issuing an ALTER SESSION statement, for example:
SQL> ALTER SESSION SET time_zone = 'Asia/Shanghai';
Setting the ORA_SDTZ environment variable.
If the session time zone is an absolute offset instead of a region name, the Scheduler will use the value of the DEFAULT_TIMEZONE Scheduler attribute. For more information, see the SET_SCHEDULER_ATTRIBUTE Procedure.
If the DEFAULT_TIMEZONE attribute is NULL, the Scheduler will use the time zone of systimestamp when the job or window is enabled.
SY.
