Trigger SAP job

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to trigger SAP job whenever there is a new file in a network folder which is outside SAP. File name is like worklistYYYYMMDDHHMMSS.CSV. Timing of this file creation are unpredictable.
Also, this new file should be passed to SAP job for running.
Do you have any idea about possible solution? Can we user Event based trigger (SAPEVT command)?
Please let me know the details.
Many thanks,
Apps

Hi
You can do it in this way.
Creat a program in ABAP which picks up the file from Application Server
Put all the reocrds in an internal table and post it in SAP.
This program will be batch program and it will run once in every hr and
it will store the last captured file name in a Z table so whenever it picks up new file it will
compare the name old file and if they are not same delete the old file name and insert the new file name in the Z table.
Your batch program can pick up the file name from this Z table.
Hope it is useful.

Batch File to trigger SAP job

Hi all,
Please can anyone advice on how to write a batch file to trigger the sap job. For example: If file exists in an external folder (e.g. C:\Temp), a command will trigger to run the SAP job.
Many thanks,
Shashi

You could do this.
Check if file exists.
Do something when it does.
Move file to another directory and rename file with data/time stamp
Renamed file give history of activity
Schedule this program to run every X amount of time
data: w_result type c.
data: w_file type string value 'C:\temp\test_down.spf'.
data: w_file_size type i.
call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_exist
exporting
    file                 = w_file
receiving
    result               = w_result
exceptions
    cntl_error           = 1
    error_no_gui         = 2
    wrong_parameter      = 3
    not_supported_by_gui = 4.
if w_result ne 'X' .
else.
write: / w_file.
write: / 'File exists'.
Do something when it does.
Move file to another directory and rename file with data/time stamp
Renamed file give history of activity
endif.
flush needed for some methods of class cl_gui_frontend_services
call method cl_gui_cfw=>flush
exceptions
    cntl_system_error = 1
    cntl_error        = 2
    others            = 3.

How to Trigger a Job from se38 Report

Hi,
I need to trigger a job from an se38 report program.
Currently the code I'm using is:
SUBMIT YARTZ_SPOOL
         USER SY-UNAME
         VIA JOB 'YARTZ_JOB2'
         NUMBER 1
         TO SAP-SPOOL
         SPOOL PARAMETERS l_print_parms
         WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
         AND RETURN.
But the SY_SUBRC return I get is 8 which stands for 'Error In job Scheduling'
Is the method used correct?
Or am i going wrong in scheduling the job? As far as Job scheduling goes, I used the Date/Time schedule and scheduled it at a time 20 minutes later.
Thanks.

use the code

Where to find entry level sap jobs with a Terp10 Certification

Hello I am a soon to be college graduate graduating this December.
My question is with a Terp10 certification and no work experience what can I expect from the job market. Are there companies that hire college graduates with no SAP work experience? Are there any resources that help graduates find entry level SAP jobs.

Hi ,
Welcome to the World of SAP !
As a fresher there are lot of options to start the career in SAP domain . As a fresher doing a certification *** training with out any prior experience , the opportunities for getting a job will be very less. SAP is a Enterprise business software which has the Technical ( ABAP,BASIS .......) Functional (SD,PP,MM,FI,...) Techno Functional modules . Choose a very option to get started . Getting a right career is not a tough job for you , search in web , read about sap , lot of online information ,forums available . choosing a career is a brainstorming work , my suggestion drop the idea of doing certification , as you are a fresher and very difficult to get a job without any experience . Please check the links to get start . good luck

Help Required Regarding - SAP Job names using R3 data flows

We are calling a set of SAP Jobs using R3 data flows in data services. When ever a job fails we first kill the active SAP jobs by logging into SAP and then restarting the Jobs.
There are about 100 odd SAP jobs that we call using these Data services Jobs so we wanted to kill the jobs using a reusable code on the SAP side by passing the Job name just before every R3 flows just incase its still in active status.
So wanted to know if there are any short cuts to retrive the set of associated SAP job names because it will be a tedious process to hardcode the SAP job names and pass them as parameters for all the 100 + SAP job names in the custom defined resuable code.
Any help or advice on this please !!

The program is not meeting the expectations
and the problem is due to reflection.Do we know this for certain?
... my application gets the class name, field name
etc. from an XML file so i don't know their method names
beforehand .
Now since every class instance corresponds to a row
in the database and i have to call get and set
methods of each class instance so the performance
keeps on degrading as the number of columns and rows increase .
Can somebody suggest some improvement regarding this
and regarding creating multiple instances of the same object Class.forName() will be using a hash already, so there is probably not much room for improvement.
Class.newInstance() probably does not take significantly more processing than a simple "new Fubar();".
Umpteen reflective method invokations (one per column) for each row/instance - Are you saying these are the problem?
You can test this easy enough.
If you comment out the reflective method invocations and leave the rest of your code untouched,
does your application processing speed up significantly?

Trigger a job using an event through a process chain

Hi,
After the success of 5metachain, I am using AND condition
My requirement is as follows, it should trigger a job which needs to be after AND condition,
I have created an event using sm64. Basically the client wants to trigger the job using the event through the process chain. I have tried test scenariou2019s using ABAP program (Process type) in the process chain but it is failing. Is there any other way to trigger a job using an event through a process chain? If ABAP program is the only option, can you please specify what all needs to be filled in the variant?
Regards.
Jerry

Hi,
Create a program like below,
CALL FUNCTION 'BP_EVENT_RAISE'
EXPORTING
    EVENTID = 'EVENT WHICH YOU HAVE CREATED'
EXCEPTIONS
   BAD_EVENTID                  = 1
   EVENTID_DOES_NOT_EXIST       = 2
   EVENTID_MISSING              = 3
   RAISE_FAILED                 = 4
   OTHERS                       = 5
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
search and include the program name which you have created above in the "ABAP program" process type which you are going to include in the process chain.
Include the event which you have created in the start condition of the job.
Note: No need of give any variant, because here we are calling only one function in this program.

Sridevi.

Submit a SAP job and it is erroring out as "instance/client not found"

I am trying to submit a SAP job and it is erroring out as "instance/client not found"
as soon as I enter the instance/client value and click on next I am getting this error
please help

Hi,
Then maybe there is a problem with another parameter, and the error is obscured by this error message.
You did specify valid values for all other parameters ?
Maybe you can try the following:
- create a simple job in SAP, you do not have to execute it only save it
- import this job using RSI_IMPORT_CCMS_JOBS and specify the exact job name
- run the imported job (it will have the same name as in SAP) and see if this works
- if this works, try your job again directly from CPS and compare your parameters with those on the imported job (especially which ones are filled or not filled, that sometimes is more important than the exact value chosen)

Anton.

Just create one event for job that you are going to monitor..i.e file placing in a folder.
then by using SM36/SM37 u can schedule your job ZFCP0001A01 based on Job Start condition after event in SM37. you need to configure it.
Pls check with your basis people to create that event.

Sap job to delete OS level files

Hello SAP Admins,
I have a question: is there a sap job that can delete files from OS level, to prevent the file system to become full.
Thank you
Chris

Hi Chris,
As such there is no standard job to remove OS level files.
You may write some abap program which contains execution of OS level commands.
You may schedule this ABAP program based on your requirement to cleanup the files at OS level.
We had done it for cleaning up interface files at one of our customers.
Hope this helps.

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.
Regards,
Jin
