In this step you define parameters to control the processing of background jobs.

You can define the following background jobs for plant data collection (PDC) in confirmations:

  • initial download of activities
  • transfer of master data tables
  • delta download of activities
  • upload request
  • PDC record update

You determine the following parameters for the background job:

  • description of the background job
  • priority of the background job (job class)
  • computer on which the background job is executed
  • how many steps the background job is to contain (each step starts a further program)
  • whether the background job processes ABAP/4 programs or external programs
  • when and how often the background job should run

    The SAP System provides the following selection options:

  • Immediately
    • The system starts the job right after it is released.

  • Date
    • You can specify a date and a time at which you would like the job to be executed. If desired, you can also initiate an automatic repetition of the background job.

  • After job
    • You can specify the name of the job whose processing is to precede your job. You can also specify whether this "appendage" is to be status-dependent.
    The indicator status-dependent means that the second job is executed only if the first one was completed successfully. This is useful if the second job depends on the first one.
    Example:
    1. Create analysis
    2. Print analysis

  • After event
    • You can specify an event at which you would like the job to be executed.
    Events are initialized by ABAP/4 programs and external programs and by the SAP System itself. An event is a signal that a certain status has been reached in the SAP System or in another program.
    With the start option after event, a "periodic" job is started again with each occurrence of a designated event.

Requirements

To print your list in the background, you must have maintained all the print control parameters in the step Define print control.

Standard settings

A standard report is proposed in the standard system.

Activities

    • job name
    • class
    • target host (if necessary)
  2. Press Start time in order to specify the start option you want for your job.
  3. If you want to have your job processed periodically rather than just once, select Schedule periodically.
  4. In the window, select the repetition period that you would like for your job, for example, hourly or daily.
  5. Press Steps to identify the program which is to be processed in the background.

    • name
    • variant
    • authorized user

      Press the External key to schedule an external program.

  6. Enter the following specifications for the external program:
    • name
    • possible parameters
