SM37 Job Delay Seconds

Hi, When my scheduled LIS Jobs run on R3 I am noticing that they all show some kind of Delay in SM37 before they run. The Jobs run every 4 hours and during most of the runs there isn't any real amount of system activity going on so I'm guessing this shouldn't be happening.
Can anyone tell me what would cause this delay and what/should I do anything about it?
Thanks!

Ken,
How much is the delay? Is it < 60 seconds or more than that? The job scheduler wakes intermittently to run the background jobs (parameter rdisp/btctime in the instance profile). If it is more than that, then it usually there are no available jobs on the designated server or in the system.

SM37 Job schedule in BW

Hi,
I had a 2 SM37 Jobs in BW.
for the next 3 Weeks my requirment is to schedule One Job to run from MON-WEd and Another jon to run THu-SAT
How can i schedule/release a job in SM37 and meet my requirment

hi friends..
your solution might be correct, but we need to create 3 jobs with different timings (MON, TUE, WED) and same for the second also then the number of jobs created are 6, here time is wasted i think so.
so i have one small idea, i hope it works.
make a FACTORY CALENDAR such with MON, TUE, WED as working days and while scheduling the job use that factory calendar. and create one more FACTORY CALENDAR with THU, SAT as working days and us it for scheduling the second job.
hope it works.

Please go to SM37 and select the job and click on Job Details and copy the PID and note down the application Server where it is running and go back to the Job Overview screen and Click on Application Server at the right top corner and double click on the Corresponding server and it will take you to the SM50 Screen where you can give a search for the PID(Delete the Dot and Search). once you found the PID click on Process Menu and Select the option Cancel Without Core.

SM37 - JOBs was CANCELED

Hello all,
Can someone explain why Job was Canceled...
tx = SM37 - JOBs were CANCELED
Some JOBS were finished ans some were canceled:
name: DELIVERY_APR / user: JHERNANS/ stts: COMPLETED/ date: 06.06.2007/start: 01:00:32/ finished: 07:26:17
name: DELIVERY_JUN / user: JHERNANS/ stts: CANCELED/ date: 06.06.2007/start: 01:00:36 /finished: 01:03:56/
name: DELIVERY_MAR / user: JHERNANS/ status: CANCELED/ date: 06.06.2007/ start: 01:00:32
name: TS MAY NAT/ user: JHERNANS/ status: CANCELED/ date: 06.06.2007/ start: 01:00:36
All JOBS above has just 1 STEP which is:
ABAP program: AQIWGM==========TS============
However each JOB has a different VARIANT(PARAMETER):
job: DELIVERY_APR / parameter: &0000000004820
job: DELIVERY_JUN / parameter: &0000000004885
job: DELIVERY_MAR / parameter: &0000000004801
job: TS MAY NAT / parameter: &0000000004856
ALL CANCELEDS JOBS were canceled because :
ABAP/4 processor: DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR
All CANCELED JOBS has the same at Job Log:
- ABAP/4 processor: DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR/ message class: 00/ message nº: 671/ message type: A
- Job cancelled/ message class: 00/ message nº: 518/ message type: A
Question: What has happened?
Is a time overlapping problem
Or
Can it be a program problem?

Hi All,
I need to deschedule about 250 SM37 Jobs.
Is there any FM or Program to accomplish this, So that i can give only list of jobs and let the program to deschedule.
Regards,
Vijay.

Hi,
See the Belwo FM's
SAP_REORG_JOBSTATISTIC --> Deletes job statistics for jobs not run since the specified date (statistics no longer needed since job was a one-time occurrence or is no longer run)
SAP_REORG_UPDATERECORDS -> Deletes old completed update records (automatic delete deactivated); deletes incomplete update records (automatic delete deactivated).
Even you can runa Small Select statment on table TBTCO ro deschedule the SM37 jobs ....

Background job delay

Hi Experts,
I have a problem. When saving production order, I need to schedule job, which runs 5 seconds after current time and changes some fields in production order.
Problem is, that this job is alwayse delayed. Sometimes it is only 10 seconds, sometimes one minute.
Can I ensure to start job in planned time without delay?
Thanks&regards,
Jirka

Hi Jirka,
While we configure the background job scheduling you must have given immediate start.Am I correct.When we specify it means that the action reaction is quick immediately.We know that the process execution within SAP is so vast that the process has to wait for a bit of time that is what the cause of the delay you can check while the process you trying to achieve in the mean time you can check SM51 or SM 50 both youo can see that the delay is just because of the work processor availabilty.To improve the performance of the process please do contact the basis team.
Hope your query resolves.
Have a best day ahead.

SM37 - Job overview

In this transaction, i can see Jobs status as
- Scheduled
- Released
- Ready
- Active
- Finished
- Canceled
Is there a sequence which has to be followed ie, first will be active, released ...... finished.
ALso what is scheduled Job do.

Hello Rajesh,
Any background job goes through the following states 'in that sequence':
1. Scheduled (the job has been planned, it will execute at some point of time in future, but you may still edit the job steps at this stage)
2. Released (the job steps cannot be edited, any job scheduled in 'immediate' mode will be in released state directly)
3. Ready (the job is in execution queue and is about to be executed depending upon availability of background work process and the job priority)
4. Active (the job is being executed by a background work process, you may monitor this in sm37 and sm50/51)
5. Finished (all the job steps completed successfully) OR Cancelled (there was a error and job has been terminated, as mentioned in the job log)
Coming to your second question, scheduled job will go through the states mentioned above before its finished or cancelled.
This may clarify your doubts.
Regards,
Saurabh.

Writing in SM37 Job Log

Hi Abappers,
I have a requirement in which I am displaying all the error messages in an ALV when my program runs in Foreground. But this program runs in background, those error messages must be displayed in the Job Log of SM37.
I should not raise any error or information messages to come in log automatically as it affects the foreground processing of my program.
Is there any FM to write in the Job log?? Or can I use the Message statement in such a way that it is not diaplayed in forground?
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
Try this.
If you are using ALV grid in the foreground, use the same without without creating the container (basically check the SY-BATCH, before creating a container). Then the same ALV grid will create a spool with all the messages during background execution.

SM37 Job is not visible in SM50

Hello Gurus,
I am seeing a peculiar situation- We ran a job and after a while I am seeing it has dissappeared from SM50 but has "Active" status in SM37.
*We have only one application server.
Does anybody have any idea how it could be cancelled.
Cheers,
Ankur

Hi Subhash,
The issue was that Job was active in SM37 but was not present in SM50. I found the answer and this is due to termination of work process without making a call to "BtcCleanUp" kernel function .
Anyway thanks for replying.
Cheers,
Ankur

Background job delay due to 'ARFC' jobs running continously

Dear all,
As we are facing problem that,there is job starting with the 'ARFC'(example: ARFC:AC1F0C0D386B463CA88E8D10) which runs with all the users in the system.Thus the other background jobs even the sys monitoring jobs also goes for the delay for the longer time.This is happening from past 10 days.I m unable to trace what has got change in the system due to which ,I m facing this issue.I had checked in the job logs also, in which i didnt got any help.In that it is only mentioned owner of the job.Pls check this at the high priority as it is affecting my normal background jobs.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Akif

Hi akif,
jobs which are stuck at ARFC mode needs to trigger other event controlled jobs. since they are updating the Database, unless those jobs trigger this job cannot run forward so try to find what kind of jobs from the user who scheduled the job and then take the action if the jobs are related to support packages and releasing of change request then try to schedule RDD* jobs under user DDIC in 000 client
this is not due to instance consistency

kanthi

How to make two jobs periodic,second job starting after first get fini

Hi ,
      I had posted this question previously also. I can't understand Why the Moderator Locked it.
      I searched the SDN and found that hardly any one has given a correct answer.
       Every one gives an ans create a job with two steps.
       NO i don't require that. I have to update joblogs of the first job in a Z table. So i have to create two periodic jobs.
    If you have tried and succeeded plaease answer.
    I will request Thomas if he has got some valid links please do share.

Ok Thomas let expalin my problem in detail.
I have one report A which updates some Z tables. Now the user is going to schedule a monthly job for this report.
He wants to see the log details of the Job to be stored in a Ztable. Fields will like 'Job name,Id, Start date, Start time,End Date,End Time, User ,Status of Job (Canceled/Finished) , Tables Updated, Tables Failed '.
What my second report does it picks up the lates Job finished/Cancelled for the Report A. Then Passes it to 'BP_JOBLOG_READ'
fetches the Log messages of JobA. From where I can get which Table is updated and which one failed.
So my second report Report B should be excuted every time Job A Finishes.
What i Felt it will easier to create a job ffor report B , and Let this Job B fired every time Job A finishe/Cancelled.
Any hope i can resolve this.
thanks in advace.
