Scheduling Manager
Hi All,
We run Discoverer using a database, which is a clone of our live database. Our clone is refreshed every night and is populated with the data from the live database.
We wish to give our users the ability to schedule their reports and have been testing the scheduling manager recently. When we schedule a report to run for today then it will run fine and we can view the results.
However, when we schedule a report to run overnight, then it doesn't run and we get an ORA-00942 error. Similarly, when we try to view the results of a report that was run yesterday we get the same error message. I think we have worked out the problem where we cannot view yesterday's scheduled report but does anyone have any idea why reports scheduled for the following day are not running?
Thanks
John
Hi Puppethead,
Thanks for the reply.
When we schedule reports to run today then a table will be created and we can see the report. If we then come in the next day then we can't open the report as the table that was created has been lost during the cloning process. However, this isn't too much of a problem as we can get our ICT partners to amend their cloning process to backup the tables that are created the previous day.
The problem really lies in the reports that are scheduled for the following day as no tables are being created and so we can't open the report. We are not sure if the tables aren't being created because when we schedule the report it is looking at our EUL as it is at that point in time and then when it actually comes to run the report, it is looking at a new clone.
We haven't yet allowed our users to schedule any reports as we have been testing the functionality to see if it is feasible to give it to them but our cloning process kicks off at 01:00 and completes between 07:30 and 08:00. As part of our testing we having been scheduling reports for during the normal working day, at 18:00 and at 08:15 the following morning.

How to change the worklist in schedule manager in production system
we are using schedule manager (SCMA) to arrange the daily process in SAP system. but we have to config the worklist and transport it to the production system every time cause in production system if we press edit worklist there would be a message called " TK430 The system administrator has set your logon client to the 'not modifiable' status.Client-specific objects can not be changed in this client."

Scheduling job perodically vs schedule manager
Dear SAP expert
I would like to run the report fbl1n(PRogram RFITEMAP ) and email to users.
I have 2 option:-
1.Schedule the job periodically and email it through SM36.
2. customise the report in schedule manager in flow definition and email to users.
option 1 i am able to execute.
option 2 i am not fully through. Please clarify how option 2 can be done.
How i should decide pros and cons of schedule the job periodically through SM36 OR THROUGH SCHEDULE MANAGER
PLS CLARIFY
thanks
S APHello Santosh,
the link that you already got is good. Perhaps you also want to check out [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQJobSchedulingManagement|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQJobSchedulingManagement] and [SAP is first vendor to provide a comprehensive Job Management Suite |SAP is first vendor to provide a comprehensive Job Management Suite] for further information.
In short SAP CPS is an advanced scheduling tool like which competes against other like UC4, Control-M from BMC etc. But all these tools do not provide any real job documentation or job request functionality in order to get the process governance right. That's where the SolMan gets into the game.

Question on Schedule Manager (SCMA)
Hi all,
Is there a way for me to setup Schedule Manager (SCMA) directly in production without opening the production client for direct change? Currently, any change that I make related to this transaction on both QA and Prod systems results to error message 'Client xxx has status 'not modifiable'.
Thanks in advance.

Closing cockpit, Schedule Manager
Howdy,
I have experience with Schedule Manager (SCMA) in a 4.7 environment. I noticed its still available in ECC6.0. In ECC6.0 is it necessary to have the New GL active to implement the Close Cockpit(CLOCOC)? Is it possible to implement the Close Cockpit without the New GL active? Is it possible to migrate Schedule Manager elements like flow definitions and tasks to the Close Cockpit? Any opinions using CLOCOC v.s. SCMA? Thanks in advance!
BillHi,
Yes I have implemented SCMA. My question is on the Close Cockpit(CLOCOC). Can CLOCOC be implemented without the New GL? The reason I ask is that we just upgraded to ECC6.0 and have not implemented the new GL. I cannot find the tcode CLOCOC in any menu area - including SPRO.
Thanks

Using Schedule Manager (FMDM) to manage budget carry forward for commitment
Greetings,
Using ECC 5.0, we have a business requirement to carry forward (FMJ2) some open commitments with budget and some open commitments without budget to the new fiscal year. We have attempted to use Schedule Manager (FMDM) to change the settings on open commitments (purchase requisitions and purchase orders). While the Schedule Manager reflects the change in the budget carry forward status, the application of the FMJ2 does not work as expected. Alternatively, we have changed the configuration settings and then transported changes to production environment.
I would appreciate guidance on how to troubleshoot operation of Schedule Manager so budget carrry forward status can be managed with this tool.
Regards,
Rod AndersonThanks, Ming.
My security team has confirmed that the FMDM is currently set up as a display only transaction. I now know where to take the issue from here.

Hi
Can any one send me the Schedule Manager config settings.
Reregards
cheersHi Glauco
It's a bit difficult to explain in words, but simple once you get the hang of it.
If you take a look at a dialog workflow task, you will see one tab labeled "Latest End". In this tab you can schedule the task to automatically send a message to someone when it has not been completed after a certain amount of time (the deadline). However, the current agent keeps the work item even if the deadline has passed. This is called simple deadline monitoring.
For extended deadline monitoring, you can not only schedule a message, but prompt the workflow to take action. I don't know exactly how to configure it by hand, but you can find a wizard for creating the extended steps in the Workflow Builder. The wizard can be found under the Workflow Wizards section of SWDD, on the lower-left hand side of the screen. You can select this tab the same way you change from viewing the workflow containers to "Step Types that can be inserted" tab.
I hope I was a bit clearer this time.
Regards.

Set Schedule Manager to run OB52 on certain condition
Dear Friends,
Can i use Schedule Manager to automatically run OB52 with certain condition? For Example, on the last day of the period, i want to set to extend all the account type to the next period. And then, after a certain day of the new period, I want to set schedule manager to close previous period for certain account type.
Can Schedule Manager do that?
Thanks a lot,
CWHi Akhilesh,
Thanks for replying. So, does it mean that Schedule Manager can not support for automation? I mean, even though that we can put OB52 in the tasklist, but we still have to execute it manually?
Thanks,

Workflow - Schedule Manager problem
Hi,
I have configured a flow definition task in Schedule Manager (SAP 4.7, IDES system). After the immediately execution I got a very strange dump:
Syntax error in program "CL_SWF_RUN_WIM_LOCAL==========CP
The following syntax error occurred in the program
CL_SWF_RUN_WIM_LOCAL==========CP :
"You can only define attributes in the PUBLIC, PROTECTED or PRIVATE sec"
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "CL_SWF_RUN_WIM_FACTORY========CP" had to be
terminated because one of the statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
How can I manage the workflow integration? As I see this is not a SCMA problem, maybe this is a workflow setting problem!?
Any help in this much appreciated.
Thanks,
MikiHi Mikkel,
Thanks your answer. In my view SWU3 is OK:
- Maintain runtime environment is green
- Maintain definition environment is green
- Maintain additional settings and services is green
- Classify tasks as general is green
Have you got any other idea? Unfortunately, I tried this flow definition in an other SAP 4.7 IDES sandbox system, but I got this dump again.
Kind regards,
Miklos
