Use
In this Customizing activity, you can monitor the background jobs delivered with the Financial Closing cockpit Add-On. You can check whether each background job is running and display the job details.
Warning
These delivered background jobs are critical to the operation and functioning of the Financial Closing cockpit Add-On. SAP recommends that you make sure that the FCC_MGMT_BACKGROUND_JOB background job is released before using the add-on.
Requirements
Standard settings
The add-on delivers the following background jobs:
FCC_MGMT_BACKGROUND_JOB
This background job monitors the lifecycle of other background jobs delivered in the Financial Closing cockpit Add-On. After this background job is released, it runs at a fixed interval of five minutes to ensure that those background jobs are running properly.
Every time when you open the Financial Closing cockpit application, the system checks whether this background job is running. If the background job is not running, the system creates the background job. The background job stops only when no task lists are released or active.
Only a user who has all the authorization in the following table can release the background job:
Authorization Object Authorization Field Field Value
S_BTCH_ADM BTCADMIN Y
S_BTCH_JOB JOBGROUP <Job group name>
S_BTCH_JOB JOBACTION RELE
S_BTCH_NAM BTCUNAME <User name>
For more information about these authorization objects, search for them in transaction SU21.
A user with all the above authorization can release the background job in the following two ways:
- The user opens the Background Job Monitor from Customizing and clicks the Schedule button.
- If the user also has the authorization to start the Financial Closing cockpit application, they can have the background job released automatically by merely starting the application. In this case, the user does not need to click the Schedule button.
After the background job is scheduled, the system records the user name in the Released By column. The background job releases the other background jobs if the respective conditions are met. For more information about the conditions, see the documentation for those background jobs.
Troubleshooting
If you find that this background job is not released and that you cannot release it by clicking the Schedule button, ask a user who has the required authorization to release it or contact your system administrator.
